New Apache and Navaho hulls 58"

martno1fan created the topic: New Apache and Navaho hulls 58"

Hi i thought id share my new Apache hull shes 57" long ,this has been 8 months in the making from plug to moulds and hull.The one with the decals is my own which has a new deck design,this one is called the Navaho.Feedback on the first cpl has been very encouraging and im very proud of the build quality on these.
Layup is 1 layer tissue,1 layer 300csm,1 layer 450 biaxial cloth and the rear 3rd has carbon .This makes for a bullet proof hull yet remains reasonably light.Bare hull with rails and transom wood is 10.6 lb.As soon as i or my customers get a vid of one running ill post here.Let me know what you think cheers.

Hi thanks guys,yea ill be posting pcs etc most deffinateley,the first one went to a friend whos racing his in offshore so as soon as he gets some pics and videos ill post em.Mine will be a few weeks away as im busy building a few hulls to order.The quality is very good,dont want to sound like im bragging but feedback has been very flattering.Ive just added this deck support to the latest,not sure ints needed but it cant hurt.Will make the deck much more rigid which cant be a bad thing,just needs fixing in as the customers coming for it tomorrow.

Thanks Doug thats much apreciated,also i have you to thank for getting me into this.Your plans for the 48" woody were the first model gas boat i ever built.Getting into this hobby has given me a chance to use my boat building skills again.
I never thought id ever be building boats again after almost 20 years out of working on the real thing,funny how things turn out lol.I dont think it will make me a fortune but it certainly gives me pleasure and helps keep the wolf from the door so to speak.
