I'm not convinced it was hit boat.I think it was his dad's boat and this 15 year old kid was playing on his dad's computer.The kid was probably pissed his dad was selling the family fishing boat.

97 23' Scarab SCS
Ok guys ...
I think that I was the first to warn him that jumping in a Scarab area and slamming Scarabs was probably a bad idea however maybe we should cut him some slack.
We all have pride of ownership that causes us to say things that may be exaggerated and do a little bench racing.
So lets let him get his GPS and find out like I did how far off the speedo in the dash is off


Ok Ok and for those of you that think I have gone totaly soft ...
Will someone with a 22 Scarab that lives in his area please go spank him good

Good line.I read this an hour ago and I'm still laughing.
I think we should cut him some slack too.I think I made my point with him.

Maybe I should cut him some slack.This is obviously his first boat.Non performance boat I might add.
He has no external steering,no trim tabs or thru hull yet he's running with the big boys.Two things will happen if he does try to go that fast.A Sea Ray is not a performance boat and at his desired speed the boat will self destruct and he'll get killed.Good luck with that.

I'm done arguing with the guy.If I ignore him perhaps he'll go away and bug others in the Fouaintin,outerlimits,Adrenaline,etc forums.
I was right! You don't know what a Pachangga is! Has thru hull exhaust and has tabs but the former owner took them off! I see a potential of up to 60K + Myself. Nothing about trust dude. If we do this he who looses pays the others travel expenses! And I do hope we walk away friends! No sweat off my back if I loose...I will shake your hand and tell you you were right! The hull of an 87 Pachanga is twice as strong as the hull of an 87 scarab. That's MHO!

502...I appreciate that! I am really not trying to slam Scarabs! I searched hard and long for my boat. I am sure the newer Scarabs...say into the mid 90's definetly have a better hull design. This all started when I made the statement that the Scarabs killed the Pachanga...which they did because they were 1/2 the price! But the quality of the Pachanga then was much better than the Scarab.....time tells all...I'm not talking about design...I'm talking about how well built a boat is! You can read thread after thread here about Scarab quality problems...show me one about a Pachanga! As to going by the Speedo.....if I was doing that I would say I was doin better than 110! I don't know how much slip I have. 5200 with a hard bite...30 bravo 4 blade 1.5 drive ratio. I can trim it up and wind it up in the high 5's if I want too!

Hey Pachanga! We all have seen a old busted pachanga behind some greasy guses gas starion rotting away. Seems you are the last pachanga owner since you registered in may 07 and the handle was available!!!!! Kinda like the last member of members only you are. Half of your 35 posts are on this thread telling peeps they don't know what a pachanga is!!! I know it's not an offshore boat!!!!! Stop hijacking threads .Say something constructive or crawl back under your rock.

I know I'm knew to this but what the heck is a pachanga? and if your boat is so sweet why no pics? I also dont know why your so worried about us Scarab guys, but my thought is your full of it or your a wannabe, go drive your tub and stop crapping in our yard!!! I will leave you with one final thought my Uncle's sundeck boat has trim tabs and thru-hull exhaust!

I'm pretty sure a Pachanga is a latin dance.

All this coming from a guy that can't drive a Mustang for chit or ride a 4 wheeler to save his life.

Good to see you Luke.
