I can assure you it is not a splash, they may look the same but that is about it. How many other apache's are differant lengths and they all look the same.

To everyone please do not start another "splash thread". We do not need to turn this site into the Dock.

I will state the obvious here. If you do not make it look like an Apache then guess what it's not a Apache.

Tony, that is a great looking Apache and I only wish the shipping would not be so high into the states I would love to add one of yours to my fleet. Keep up the good work and don't let them get you wound up.

You sure have the knack of making a boat look the part Henry. If you don't mind me asking, are they home-made stickers?
We had about 4" of rain here this morning so Boral Lake should be up higher again for the next BMM weekend. Hope to see you there Henry.

Oi Tony. As you might already know Tony make his own Viperhull stickers, I asked for Black at First, But decide to go for the Blue and White color on the Apache. So he made the White Viperhulls stickers for me,, As for the rest I get them from a hobby shop in Thailand, there great for boats and believe it or not they don't peel off.
As for the Rain was good hey, Will be up to Boral Lakes this Sunday for sure, Have a m8 wanting to join the Club also so see you then m8.

And spoolinaww, Thanks, but will look nice when i get the Pipe in..



Take care all.. Henry.

Yes I have seen Tony's vinyl cutter. He is well set up just like Danny. I was interested in the Thai stickers but thought you might have made them yourself. I was interested in having a go at it myself. I have a bunch of laser printer decal paper but I think for gas boat use I would have to use something more durable. Xerox makes clear and white adhesive films that are both UV proof, chemical proof and laser printer friendly but they cost an absolute fortune per pack. [] It's called Xerox CL Media and it's $164 for the white per 100 sheets and $325 for the clear. [X(]

Much easier and cheaper to buy them from flee-bay..
