A new old Scarab

good looking boat. If you bought it right and take your time to rig it right it will be very cool. Be aware that its gonna cost some bucks and a couple of years to complete, but nothing good comes easy.

Thanks. I figure about the 25-30 ish range at my cost. Plus I own a custom car/truck shop in the Danbury CT area http://evb.cc. Plus my good friend own's a mariana that sells Sunsation boats and he will help out with mechanical stuff were I get lost. I hope to have it done by mid to the end of the summer of next year. I will try to take photos on the project, but the north
east is a bit tough in the winter. Jim

This boat has only 250 hrs on it. Also it has been in dry dock for 20+ years I was told. The old owner had plan to do a full resto job on and make into a fishing boat. I think that would have been some kick ass fishing boat. Over the years he has pile up some list of parts tons of stuff new in box still. So I hope this will be a easy project will all the new parts. Next week I hope to pull the motors/drives/trans/gimbles. The only major thing I see that there was some rot uner the helm area that was getting choped out and I hope that all the rot. It still needs more chopping. Pics of the work in progress soon . Jim
