I totally agree! It reminds me of the personal trainers at my gym who are 50lbs over weight or the financial investors who pull up in a Ford Focus and want to invest your money

Going to keep the 3a's and just play around with some props. Have a set of 5's to try as well. Plenty of testing prior to first race

What differs between 3a's and number 5's? Sounds like fun! Keep us posted.

Gotta Agree with Lucy on the Apache having Racing as top priority thenagain Apache wasnīt alone but Apache has that "special" SoFla Drama around it.
CUV made 0 pleasure versions that I know of and the owners of CUVīs, well mostly European Aristocrats so Drama or no Drama, take your pick but all around the tabloids in the day and getting a lot more ink.
And come to think of it the same philosophy that was applied in Apache, CUV and Larry Smith also applied for Lotus,Ferrari and Porsche and in that order regarding the will to please the audience...
How many pleasure versions vs raceboats did LS make which reputation got washed by Wellcraft ?
Guess the total number is less than Apache raceboats?
Iīve always wondered is the Legacy of Apaches just an American thing as seems overseas it doesnīt carry that high, even a Cig or a Magnum is a match.
The Brits especially state that Apache had their asses handed to them against the European competition and back in the day and wasnīt a threat in the toughest of them all, CTC race.
I personally like Apaches a lot ( Because of the 41 being Don Aronows last baby) but would also consider a CUV Cougar or a LS raceboat as an alternative (Did I say that).
Thereīs a lot of other interesting stuff among those the audience knows nothing about and especially the Brits and Italians are renown for building only raceboats and caring less about selling on monday as those behind the builds are Load€d with caĢh in other busin€$$€$ and keep a very low profilĢ of it.
This is a Very good thread that IMO definitely needs the Competitors threads alongside just to relive the days.Offshore Racing wasnīt designed to be a spectator sport, it's for people or companies with's lots of money to push the envelope of endurance technology and hopefully put a trophy on a mantle. It's man vs the elements, not like boats with like engines running in circles.

You can check on the driveline section, we have been discussing about 3's vs 5's for weeks
