Throughout his career he has manufactured in excess of 600 offshore boats. He has been widely recognized by boating industry leaders for his masterful design innovations.
McManus, along with DuPont and the United States Military, assembled and directed the first team to design and weave a pattern of Kevlar and carbon fiber laminate, a design that has not been duplicated today.

It’s so nice to hear people who appreciate their property. He doesn’t seem ungrateful because he has money. He sounds happy as a kid like I do when I talk about my Bayliner 3460.

[@dieseldog00]

I think the Bayliner 5788 is an awesome cruiser. I wonder if they still build it.(no they don't, used market only now)

[@signoresantinoburnett1169]

Those old 3460's did their job. Enjoy.

[@figgeberglund4145]

@@signoresantinoburnett1169 Thanks for the compliment. It’s indeed an amazing cruiser. I live in Sweden btw and she’s imported from Oregon a few years before I bought her. 🇸🇪

How great is America? Work hard and you too can enjoy things like this. We live in the greatest country in the world! Anyone with a great work ethic can achieve dreams like this! I’m sure nobody handed this man the keys to this boat. He worked hard maybe took some chances in life and achieved the American dream. Just proves a lesson kids. Work hard and good things happen. Enjoy your boat sir, it is impressive!

[@thedieselfountain9349]

I'm in love with this boat. Some people get star struck with their favorite band, singer, etc I'm star struck with this! Good job! Thanks for sharing.

[@joshmaitie5954]

Absolutely beautifully made and restored!love it. Cant wait for me to receive minds 👤🖤🌑

[@michaelsorrentino9279]

An incredible performing hull !!!

[@brendanperry6429]

You really did an incredible job in the design of this boat; your methodical approach really paid off! This is an absolutely gorgeous boat. The detail is exquisite. Apache is one of, what I call, the Fab5's; Apache, Bertram, Cigarette, Donzi & Magnum. All legendary back in the day, still having an impeccable reputation. Apache stayed the course; still making incredible machines today. I don't know of a boat that can walk by this in 10' + seas. Lean mean ass kicking ocean machine. Enjoy 😎 !

[@nickbongiovanni1572]

He's built one beautiful boat

[@rustyduktape]

"Might not be the fastest out there, but the fastest in 7-8' seas." Hell yes!!!! Anything worth doing is worth overdoing, keep kicking ass!!

[@dieseldog00]

I would like to see this boat and a 51' Magnum run in 8'-10' seas. Let's see who comes out ahead.

[@Darksagan]

I have no idea how I ended up here but thats a dope ass boat with a old school style. Sick

[@scottderinger9265]

“Kept it carbureted so its nice and simple, only 1 or 2 things can go wrong” ..... “up here we have 36 gauges to monitor all the processes”

[@NeverEnoughPyro40]

It is very simple, Do not forget this Monster has 3 engines! So that means 12 gauges per engine, And out of those 12 only a few are really crucial to watch! So yes it is a very simple set up!

[@swaggerjacker1482]

Brilliant. Fabulous and remarkable engineering. A Bugatti for the Oceans.

I'm gonna take a random guess in the $850,000 range !!!! Everytime this dude turned the corner to show a feature my jaw dropped!!! I need to win the damn lottery

[@gapyrodawg5181]

steven mckinsey I'm thinking 850,000$ just for the customization ( or more) plus the cost of the boat( probably around 250,000$)

[@null2268]

Yep try $2,000,000.

[@gapyrodawg5181]

Can'tHave2MuchHP I could believe that, plus at least 50,000$ a year minimum in up keep ( providing nothing breaks!!)

Painted it to death, though? 😂 Fantastic boat and work! He has the finances to make it like HE wanted it to be. I am more laid back in the "appearance-department", and would have let the way it runs/performance do the talking, and also have a bathroom and a desent bed for weekend trips. I wonder how the perfomance could be with two Scania V8 diesels, two-speed (or three) gearboxes and Arneson surface-drives?........... Would have tried to extend the range by "a lot", and have Scotland/England within comfortable reach. (From Northwest Norway)

Jesse Milstead the sterlings need race fuel. Also if these are run with 110 he said they are making over 1600hp. Sad thing is you come online and start a comment about a piece of art with “sad thing is”. Obviously he wanted a triple engine boat because it’s cooler than a twin. Loser.
