Hey Mange,
I was checking out that website you posted. I see you guys have some great offshore powerboats in Sweden.

Yes we have some nice boats over The 41 Apache #57 has SSM6 to. I am not sure what power it has. The Hawk TopGun has SSM3 and 540's +700's.

Twistanna has 1.35:1 ratio.

Christer is the guy to the left on last picture

[Geronimo36]

Manage, did Christer re-rig the boat himself? That had to be one helluva project!

Speaking of new stuff, here's a video of Ike's 41 I just found; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lMCt3UTgCk

Speaking of Builds...Here's the build of my 36' back in 2004. The photos run from the day it brought it home, thru the enging builds, rigging, the first launch and some running shots after it was all done.

Tell a few. That Apache used to really run well over some rough water. Especially around the tip of Sandy Hook.
Ed

I guess you saw us running. That boat can tear up the rough water. It's funny that we had the slowest boat but no one could ever pass us.

Steve always thought he was part of Miami Vice so he always carried a shotgun on board in case we ran into a drug runner. So one day we are running up the Harlem River & a homeless guy is holding a cinder block to throw at us so Steve goes down below gets the gun & points it at this guy, he just dropped the block & ran off the bridge.

I don't think they have enough room on the SOS server for Billy to share all the Steve stories. Plus, if he shared them all he might have to kill ya...

I just don't want to incriminate myself the ladies loved that boat & the karaoke machine.

Does anyone know the original owner? The boat was built for a client in Europe & I was told he used to bungy the throttles & fool around with women by standing on the hatch & holding the Arch. At least the boat only ran low 60's then.
