22' Scarab, or Baja 20' Outlaw?

If you're looking at the newer 20' Outlaw versus an almost 10-year-old Scarab, one thing to consider is the age of the materials in the Scarab as opposed to the Baja. I owned a 22 Scarab and loved the boat, but it had the old-style plywood floor with glued-down carpet over it. Depending on how many times that got wet through the years, you could end up with soft spots in the wood and possibly have to replace the floor. The 20 Outlaw, on the other hand, if I'm not mistaken, should be built with a fiberglass liner that's integral to the deck. And fiberglass can handle getting wet better than wood. Finally, with a newer EFI motor, it should be more hassle free. You're right about both being about the same length on the water.
Hope this helps.

I've had both, I liked my Scarab the best. They both will fly in the rough but the Scarab flew more level. The Baja flew bow high which will scare the sh*t out of you. The Scarab looks sleeker too.

I used to have a 1998 22' Scarab. The boat wasnt happy going much over 75mph. I do know where there is a very sick 20 Outlaw for sale http://www.speedwake.com/newclassifi...uct=448&cat=35
I would deffinitly check this boat out
