Scarab boys....little help please

What's up guys. I have a question for you if you will. I ran into a guy that runs a 32' Scarab, mid to late 1990's. I can't remember if he said he was running 502 mags or hp500/500efi motors. Anyway, he said he ran 90 GPS and I about spit up my beer. That sounds big time fast with stock power to me. What do you all think?? Sounds like a low 80's boat to me with either motor pacakge, but I know little about the Scarabs. Thanks for you help, take 'er slooowwwww. Allan4

This guy must really be full o' s***. HE told me the wrong boat size!!!! Infact I asked him if it was a 31 or 32 because, knowing little about these I could not remember what Scarab built. Well, probably ain't his then. Allright, I thought 80's was generous, guess I was right. Thanks man, later

1990 34' Wellcraft Scarab
Funny Mike. Personally, I wasn't offended by the thread title.

Scarab built 30, 31, 33 and 34's over the years, so 32 isn't right unless he's adding his swim platform to a figure that already has the platform in the number.

Even with 500HP's, it could be a stretch, although I have a few buddies with 43 and 46' Black Thunders, running them up to high 70's and 80's with a pair (not trips) HP500's (one runs 70MPH at 4000 RPM's) If it's a stepped hull Scarab, trimmed out to the point he's going to blow his universal out, I suppose it's possible if you add a small chop, tide/current, wind, nobody else on board, 2 gallons of gas in the tank and stripped of all gear and accessories. But that's just a wild guess, no scientific fact.

1990 34' Wellcraft Scarab
I think it's the same. 4' 11", and I'm still trying to figure out where that measurement comes from. My GF is 4' 11" and can't stand up completely straight. I think it's 4' 11" without the headliner maybe?

Yessum massa Alann4 sir... we be likin to hep ya.. thanks fer axing.

But seriously... a 31 footer with 502s (stock) won't do 90mph. I'm pretty sure of that. Maybe it has NO?

KELLEY--- What does your 34 look like? What power and what top speed. Also what amenities do you have in the cabin?
I have a 93 34 ft
