Warpath!

Different boat... I remember three blond haired dudes getting in the boat and the deck(on land) at FT Apache shaking like hell. It was a triple, if I remember,but, wouldn't stake my life on it.
...

I'm not completely sure which boat you mean, but that guy, or "those guys", owned the one that had purple & teal. I only know this, because I watched the one with the brightest blond hair SMACK the pier in KW Harbor at the 2001 KW Poker Run, while I "tried" to help him tie up. I had sympathy, since the boat did have crash boxes, and didn't want to idle.....but DAMN did he hit that pier hard. :leaving:

Hey I have have more plaque ideas I need to run by you ..... I will call soon ! :sifone:

He just finished this bad boy for me:

Funny...I just saw them pull out of Ft Apache. What year was that?

The year I saw him & the boat, and the incident I mentioned, was 2001 in KW.

That's the only time I've seen the boat running, with someone in it. I've seen it a couple of other random times, but it's been on the trailer.

I saw the boat in,my best guess, 1987...
Sure it's the same boat? 3 man race set up?

I'm pretty sure?

I remember it well, because I'd seen the boat in a magazine before, and couldn't believe I was standing a few feet away from it in KW. It did have the race cockpit, with blue/teal colored seats. The driver was BLOND headed, and not from the USA. It would have to literally be his twin brother AND boat, if this isn't the same guy/boat. :bump:

Technically it was originally a 42 McManus...... at least that was the original billing in the Powerboat Spread!!!!!!

Thank you for reminding ,, not a Comanche but a 42 McManus!
Got that mag still somewhere.

So Rutger Hauer had an Apache back in the day :sifone:?

Great job!!!!:sifone::sifone::sifone: All for the love of the sport!!! Thank you for taking the time to do something constructive and informative!!:USA:

 

[ApacheRob]

Can we maybe start a thread for the 41 pleasure Apache list? And 36s to.

 

[MikeyFIN]

Lucy do you have any pictures of the Keith Eickert motors with mechanical fuel injection from the early Apache race boats (I believe they were 500ci)?

Offtopic.
I know of one at least brand new in the crate...
I could sometime go and take pics of it for you ?
Just tell me how detailed you need?

Would like to see for historical purposes so the photos don't need to be too detailed. That would be great if you could get those shots!!

Mega Toy is not on that list... It is 45, the same as APACHE KID

As I said a few times that list is only for 41' race boats 45 feet is not 41' just like 36' and 47' boats are not on the list. Thanks for the info though.

I have thought about this for a while, but the only other boats I can see completing a list for would be the 47's as there are not many of those boats. A 36' list or a pleasure 41' list would take a lot of time, the 41' list was far from easy to put together, but I would be happy to help if someone wants to take the point :USA:

Does anyone know if ultimate warrior was a full stagger race setup or not?

 

[Nykamp]

Ulimate warrior is a side by side Ultimate warrior returns is a full stagger race boat.
