47' Apache list

I got a little more information on the 47 from Japan. It has been in Japan the last 18 years, it had 3 850 HP KE engines but one broke an it now has 2 KE and one Teague 800EFI. It has #6 drives and is a pleasure boat but you can see that from the pictures. I have asked if they will mail me more pictures of the boat and the asking price as well.

They also sold a 41 at one point but don´t know where it is now. I have asked if they remember if it was a race boat or a pleasure boat.

Here is a better picture of the 47

:cheers2: Thanks for the update!
 
How many 47's are running twins currently for power? It seems to be the way alot of people are redoing them.
 
I believe there's only 2 or 3 47's redone for twins....one is actually a 45 that could easily be converted back to trips!!!!
 
47' Apache LUCKY STRIKE getting business done in Key West World Finals 1990


Not sure if everyone has seen this video before but I figured I would post it. This is my father (original owner of PTM Express) running in Key West in 1990. Back then there were 15+ boats in Superboat class and we even had to race against cats with 4 engines. The announcer claims they were going off coarse but they wanted to stay in the big water. The boat held 500 gallons so you can imagine the added weight.

I am including the boat name and pics. I am missing some, so please feel free to add additional photos for the boats I do not have pics for. Also, many of these photos were not taken by me, so if you would like them removed please let me know, or the site administrator.

Also I am sure that I am missing some boats, so please feel free to add any additions that you are aware of. Any list is only as good as the information that makes it up!! :)

I'm pretty sure the Mia 2 NY boat was a 45 x 12 and I'm pretty sure Heritage was a 50

Heritage is a 47 with the deck cut down for visibility, which made it actually 45 feet long. The competition number was "50", which many people mistook for being the length of the boat.
