I was talking about the black and red one that started this thread. I absolutly love the early 90s 34 Scarabs like yours The older 80s Scarab IIIs are nice, but the boats like yours just look sleek and refined, and fast. I like your cockpit setup, too, better than other 34s I've seen with the side-by-side bolsters.

My short list, if I ever win the lottery will be (in no particular order)
89-93 31 Excel Scarab
90-93 34 Excel Scarab
86-88 38 KV Scarab

Very Cool!

Thanks for the kind words som beach

Theres a lottery?

Maybe i need to check into this?

I did have an 89 EXCEL 29 before this. It was a great boat as well.

My favorite part of my 34 is the full laid back wrap around windshield and integrated swim step. I think it just makes it look fast, even though i'm still working on that part.

I worked with Emerson from 1990 through 1996 and drove his personal boat back around 1992 or 1993 (I can't remember). At that time, it had 6 liter AMG Mercedes engines in it and ran about 74 mph. We had a good time kicking around Biscayne Bay that day. Later on, then engines developed issues and had to be swapped out for Chevies. Emerson's sone designed the graphics package; always one of my favorite color combinations.
