Whether a boat is headed for contention on the Poker Run Circuit or your favorite cruising or fishing waters as a weekend warrior, each McManus built Apache is constructed to be a winning example of technology and craftsmanship.  As with each boat produced by McManus, safety and stability are primary concerns.  All boats are built to exceed the highest standards of U.S. and European Coast Guard requirements.

Each McManus Apache is capable of withstanding the most punishing offshore conditions.

Mark McManus, Apache Powerboats and USA Racing Team also provides custom manufactured, maintenance, repair and restoration of boats.

Mark McManus, President of Apache Powerboats, has personally played a significant role in writing powerboat history.

He is a Respected Master in the design and manufacturing of high-performance offshore boats ranging from 20 to 65 feet in length.

Throughout his career he has manufactured in excess of 600 offshore boats.  He has been widely recognized by boating industry leaders for his numerous design innovations.

He was the first to successfully use Kevlar® and carbon fiber in his hull designs to enhance the safety and durability of high-performance boats.  Anodized, polished, laser engraved aluminum, padded dashes, centerline steering, staggered engines and theme boats with innovative graphics are all features that McManus developed and introduced into the boating industry.  Today, these upgraded features can be found throughout the high-performance boating industry.

The engineering specifications of the McManus and Apache® designs are the results of McManus’ vast knowledge and experience of forty years.

Using ballistics-grade Kevlar49 and pure 100% carbon fiber to his design specifications, along with hand-laid laminates, and military grade resins, every McManus built boat is precisely constructed to execute solid performance in the most adverse sea conditions.

Precise alignment, balance and weight distribution of internal components create a vibration free performance, offering a stable and secure ride while attaining the fastest average speeds.

McManus hulls are known to last 30-plus years — unheard of in a high-performance boat designed for rough offshore seas.

The hull lifespan, safety record, and unmatched quality command a higher resale value than any other 40’ high-performance deep-vee in the market today.

McManus has restored half of the Apache® boats he originally built in the ‘80s and early ‘90s.  These were refurbished, not reconstructed, meaning the hulls were still in perfect condition; the new owners were interested in updating the look of the boats.

Every boat is created to the client’s specifications, and each is a showpiece of exquisite quality, power, and offshore performance.  Hand-painted artwork, graphics, instrumentation, and cockpit designs are as unique as the owners.

McManus’ powerboats continue to rewrite powerboat history with their fit, finish, and ability to dominate and deliver in offshore waters at excessive speeds. One aspect about our new and refurbished boats: when you see the project; you will remember the boat and its unique features for a long time!
