very nice!
She is not as large as I had wanted, but the price was great and most likely the only one I will be able to manage.

My dock neighbor was a 30 Scarab Panther and my 260 had tons more room all the way around. Bigger bilge, cabin, cockpit, and nearly as long to. I had so much fun with that boat, you will enjoy it. One of the things i like was the simplicity of the small blocks and Alphas, they just work in that package.

Good information.
This is the kind of feedback is what I love to hear.
Mine has the teak platform, not the fiberglass. That changes a bit on the visual, and I am sure it's a bit lighter too.

the fiberglass platform i had gave the boat a fantastic sound. I dumped the exhaust inside the platform and it resonated in there pretty good. For just lil 'ol smally blocks i sure got asked "whats in it" a lot lol. Purely not my intention as i was fine with light power in that boat but ultimately i think that exhaust sound is what sold the boat. This guy hounded all one summer every time a ran across him out at the docks or where ever. He made an offer i couldnt refuse, traded me straight up for his 34' Scarab III, pretty good deal.
