Looks like you have a project on your hands, should be pretty cool when everything gets sorted out. I just acquired a scarab 30 & it needs at least as much work as yours. Good luck. Randy

pulled the motor hatch pads off the doors this weekend. Ordering some aluminum and weather stripping to finish that project up..I am taking the padding off, and raising the doors flush with the rest of the back, and putting some sound mat on the interior of the doors. I have to send one of them in though because it is rather soft and a little beyond my fiberglass skills..don't want to fall threw! Also looking for some decent seats on the cheap.

Very cool project Good luck. That boat was in Port Huron for years always ran good. I looked at it back in July in Rochester and it had a bad transmission.

That's kinda why I built this! I don't work on the boat itself a lot in the winter but it does allow me to easily get into it and take dimensions or remove components. Put the propane torpedo heater in here for 10 minutes and you would be amazed how quickly it warms up!!
