Anybody know this 38' Scorpion ???
I saw this boat internet listed locally for sale and talked to the seller today.
He told me that he bought it as a former 2 passenger offshore racing speed boat years ago and had the empty cuddy upholstry'd out to become a salon with a semi galley and a head.
He was told by his seller she was a mid 80's racer and they thought it might have been a Miami Vice boat.
When asking about the 2 seating only, their positioning at the helm, and how much fuel she held he told me it had 4 100 gallon fuel tanks I began to think it might be a true offshore racer from the early 80's.
Just curious as to if anybody knows any history on her.
See ya,
Kelly

Never seen this one....race boats from the 80s didn't have finish cabin. They seem to have done a really good job on this one. I will tell that the scorpion is on hell of a race boat. They're great in the rough water and handle amazing. Good luck
