It says nova on the back of the front seats

It's a Scarab 300 with the 3 port windows and tall bow rail. The late 70's had them.

But he said this in the ad:

" The front seats were for a Scarab Nova, and I purchased them new at the Wellcraft booth at the Dania Marine Flea Market."

Learn something new everyday!!! That's what I like about this site, somebody knows something about anything! I had seen the 300s and just thought they were Novas!

I was a mechanic at a Ford dealer when they made Pintos and remember doing all the recalls to install a plastic shield behind the gas tank so they would be less likely to explode when rear- ended.

Not sure what to think about this. I like the idea of outboard conversion but they went a little too fish-y with this thing. With the huge foredeck/cabin it's got to be a pretty poor choice for any real fishing?

Doc,
The name of the boat seems appropriate!
