Tried to buy a 26' Scarab, got it sold out from under me.

So I was set to buy a Scarab in the classifieds. Seller and I agreed to price. Just pending a survey. Apparently the boat was about to be repo'd, so they were using me and the pending sale so that it did not go to the bank. Then at the last second the trailer has issues, they can't tow it for the survey and then it gets sold to a neighbor. Not a great transaction. Well, on with the search.

I will sell you my 26, its a 1996 with a completely rebuilt procharged 509 and the boat is in immaculate shape. Let me know if you are interested. I am in Louisiana.

I'm really looking for a simple first time boat with EFI. Trust me, this is not my normal character. I race cars as a part of my business and speed is AWESOME.
