Dive deep into the meticulous sea trial process that every Apache undergoes, ensuring unparalleled performance and reliability on the waters. In this video, we spotlight the Apache 36' Crazy Thunder, a boat with over 20 years of history, now fully restored to its original glory by the legendary Mark McManus. Mark McManus has not only manufactured many of the original 41 and 47 foot Apaches over the last 25 years but has also breathed new life into them through his restorations. His expertise extends to transforming brands like Cigarettes and Magnums into unique masterpieces. But the restoration journey doesn't end there. Each boat, once revived, faces the rigorous sea trial test. The sea trial is a crucial step to gauge the boat's operation, trim, and system functionality. Engines are test-run, and components are rigorously checked before they're even placed in the boat. This ensures a smoother sea trial experience, honed from years of expertise. For boats delivered within the U.S., they undergo two hour-long trials, while those destined overseas face three separate trials. These trials involve testing at various RPMs, primarily at cruising speeds, with brief moments at top RPM. The goal? To break in the outdrives, assess fuel and steering systems, and make necessary adjustments. With its sea trials complete, the Apache 36' Crazy Thunder stands as a testament to precision, dedication, and passion, eagerly awaiting its next captain. 🔥 Special Note: Don't miss this rare chance to own the Apache 36' Crazy Thunder, a unique piece of maritime history infused with modern luxury.

Legendary innovator and founder of Latham Marine, Bobby Latham, explains the Apache 47’s most recent attempt toward a world speed record! On June 8, 2024, Ocean Cup held its Gateway Marathon event featuring 6 teams racing from Palm Beach, Fl to West End, Bahamas and back.

APACHE STAR BREAKS WORLD SPEED RECORD – KEY WEST TO HAVANA – AUGUST 1, 2015 History was made by the crew of the Apache Star on Saturday, August 1 when the most famous offshore Deep-V race boat in US history crossed the 110 mile stretch between Key West, Florida USA and Havana, Cuba in world record time of 90 minutes. It is now the fastest crossing between Key West and Havana recorded in history. The Apache Star – a two-time World Champion, Kevlar and carbon fiber Deep-V race boat Apache 50 – shattered the previously established speed record with Apache Powerboats owner and offshore performance legend Mark McManus operating the throttles, and owner/entrepreneur Roger Kluh driving, Engineer John Pompi at the gauges, and navigator Damien Sauvage. The crossing became the first time since 1963 that an American pleasure boat with an American crew has been authorized by the US government to visit Cuba. ‘…I operated the boat as aggressively as I could within safe limits, to try to take care the wellbeing of my crew.” – Mark McManus The Crew of the Apache Star departed towards Havana Cuba at 10:15am EST from the Stock Island Marina Village in Key West. They experienced rougher than expected seas of 8-10 feet, 60 miles into the trip. The Crew arrived at the Port of Havana 1 hour and 30 minutes later, breaking all previously established records by almost 5 hours. “ When we arrived at the dock, people were singing and chanting…” – Mark McManus “The people of Cuba are a warm and happy group of people…” – Mark McManus A sudden loss in GPS signal occurred 28 miles away from the Port of Havana, all 3 GPS navigation devises on-board the Apache Star lost reception. The Apache Star crew relied on two backup navigation systems which allowed the successful completion of this historic mission. “Roger Kluh, the driver did a great job steering the boat” – Mark McManus All four members of the Crew are safely back State-side, the Apache Star is currently at the International Hemingway Yacht Club dry dock awaiting service and maintenance in preparedness for the return to Key West later this month. The previous record for the fastest Florida-to-Cuba crossing was set in 1958 by Forest Johnson, with a time of six hours, 24 minutes. This beat the original record, set in 1922 by Gar Wood.
