Mark, I had previously read the the Tom Gentry/Don Johnson Scarab in your photo was turned into this.....

That's good news that it's still a powerboat with inboard engines & not converted to a OB center console.

I hear that! I came across two 36' wide body Cigs in Florida not so long ago, one had been converted in to a cabin cruiser and the other had the transom cut out to accept outboard motors........I wept at the sight!!!

Jeff & I will be @ the worlds next week then were off to Ft Lauderdale for the offshore reality tour. We hope find some cool old poweboats like Tim's Scarab & see Bob,,[ Mr Sheer Terror].
