1972 48' Pacemaker,
1st Scarab

Hi Everyone,
Last Friday I was able to finally achieve a longtime goal and I bought my first offshore boat. It's a 1980 Scarab II 300. Pretty much a stock boat with some low hour 454's and TRS drives. I live in Sacramento CA and picked it up in Dana Point CA. Had it out in the chop that day. What an amazing time! I wanted to thank Scottie for answering a few questions for me prior to buying it. I look forward to getting to know everyone.

Bill Louder

1972 48' Pacemaker,
Eddie Thanks, Lots of questions, trying to read up first as much as I can. Late spring early summer I'll be back down for a Catalina run and some time in the bay. Like wise if anyone wants to go run the Sac Delta and River there's always room on my dock for another.

Bill
