Just saying hello.

Just joined today, so I am trying to find my way around here. Neat stuff so far.

I have been involved in offshore boats for many years and write for Exteme Boats Magazine on a contributing basis.

Here is a photo of one of my old boats.

Welcome to the forum. I love watching the videos of the old Offshore boats. Those Apaches were and still are something. Extreme Boats is a cool mag too.

same, seeing them fly through 7ft rollers at 80+mph is out of control.


I remember the one video from youtube of warpath clipping the top of a wave with the transom at 70+ and almost bat turning, thanksfully, they kept it going strong.

Keep the great pics coming!
