A classic '41 Apache that's been upgraded & maintained and looks and runs beautifully. The narrator says cats made 'Vees obsolete' is crap, lol. Give me an Apache v-bottom in flat or rough water (especially in 3+ foot seas) w/the proper engines and drives and props (and assuming you have a top notch crew) and I'll take it all day, every day. Great video work here.
What kind of boats do you build? Ever since spending the day with Warpath, I've got a new found interest and respect for the time and effort that goes into making such machines.
Beautiful vid and spectacular boat, but learn to trim it if you are going to drive, that porpoising on the test run was making me seasick just watching.
Fair point. The location was chosen by the client. I'm an automotive photographer by trade, and this was an experimental expansion into collector boats that we partnered with BaT to photograph. I know less than I would like about boating, but reading your post, those concerns make sense in hindsight.
Why didn't they use the 502 like a Baja ? Or a 630. The apache then was kinda nose diving lol. Thus for could be a lot faster. weight displacement. And bigger engines for better torque at higher rpms
Just think of how rich Ben would be if he still owned Ft Apache. That land is worth a fortune! Probably make more money off that real estate than what he made on running drugs
Nice boat but it's too old it was a very good boat back in the days I really like my 32-foot Doug Wright outboard is definitely the way to go it's a lot cheaper it burns less fuel and it's very reliable with today's technology I have a pair of 400 Mercury i cruise all day at a 100 mph my top speed is 120 mph
It's amazing what a few decades of innovation will do. Back in the 80s, the only way you could get footage like we captured was with a couple million dollars worth of equipment, now you can get very similar results for less than $1,000 bucks.
What badassery.
I like at the end them ripping through the blow boaters.
One day I’ll have my own Apache 41. Be a lot cooler if it were this one, but for right now… I’ll start with a T-shirt. Great boat!
If it's anything like this one, it will be epic! T-shirts are good too!
It’s coming bro, any day.
Me too, my retirement dream.
Don't care if I can't afford gas.
I'll just go out into the pole barn and wash and wax her every day.
Should find out what happened to the 41’ Apache “Razz” that Yves Belenger made those big wave videos in.

What a boat simply stunning
Classic is classic. Older design, sure, but still flies beautifully. When you’ve got it right, you’ve got it right.
Hats off!
Sure all the moored boats loved that
as a performance boat builder, i give this 2 thumbs up as a classic............wave masher delux classic...........time tested classic

@@DeremerStudios i work in lake havasu city.....Nordic boats
Bobby Saccenti the Magic Throttle Arm! Ben Kramer , Tom Evans The Only Original Factory Racing Team Apache 👏 🏁
And Magic it was!
A++ Video, loved it!
Iconic
Love that boat
Respect 😎
Description says twin big-block ‘354’ engines. Is that a typo? I thought 454 engines.
Great work
Thank you so much! It was a really fun project!
all them sailboaters love it when they hear that thunder coming to knock the off anchor 🤣🤣
Shame for stupid music :((( the best sound is only engines and this is all ...
I'm buying either their business t shirt,or maybe a RC replica boat, awesome American team, from John Robert Bruffett Junior!
Great video. What cameras did you use??
Combination of Cameras - DJI Mavic 2 Pro, Pocket 2 for video, Canon R5 for stills
PTM Express🤙😎🤙

I remember watching this boat when I was a kid Ing off of Miami, and in Key West and in Marathon at times
Wait, your idea of shooting a bring a trailer video is to take the boat to a mooring area, over trim it and annoy other boaters? 🤔

@@DeremerStudios I will say the camera work, editing and post production were done very well. Keep up the good work.
Has that driver never used trim before…

Looks like they are pulling it out of TNT marine. Is that it?
Seriously all the money the gov seized from Ben should buy his freedom #freebenkramer
yes, what is the point of keeping this man locked up now?
Just think of how rich Ben would be if he still owned Ft Apache. That land is worth a fortune! Probably make more money off that real estate than what he made on running drugs
Why jail a guy complicit in Don Aronow's murder, I mean it's only murder, right? 🤦
@@georgemallory797 it’s anyone’s guess who had him killed.
Sold for $401,000 on 9/19/21
Yup - And it was the first boat on BaT I believe. Or at least the first one to do White Glove. It was an honor to photograph it.
Please let me know if anything gets more iconiv than this🤠
Is this a music video or what? I just want to listen to the music from the engines.... 😭
I couldn't hear the real music
Cat killer? Ya reggie fountain. Fountain was the king.

It's still the best thing out on the water.
I want a PT boat with lots more motor(s) and updated interior.
