We drooled over Jody163's Scarab as well. Bad Azz, cool, sweet, the best Scarab I have seen in a long long time. Definitely worth the dollars paid for it.

Congrats to new owner if your on here. Not many built but they do pop up.

If I were looking for an older wave crusher and a Scarab... I would look at this one, which is 3 years older than the one linked in the first post. Its a 1987.
I believe this boat is for sale, its a board members boat.
It could be had for low to mid 50s.
BTW, I'm partial to old school!

That is an awesome boat as well, but it is pure race. Kinda hard to do anything with it except race/poker run. Now Jody's old boat is something else, pure class, an a$$ kicker, and anything else words can't truly describe. A change of the interior from the bolstered race setup, add the interior to the cabin and it really could be a pleasure go-fast. I don't think I have ever seen another Scarab like Jody163's. Guess I need to start referring to it as Paul's boat now. One lucky guy.
