Scarab 38 KV and 377 flatdeck questions.

Hi guys,

I have some questions regarding the Wellcraft Scarab 38KV and 377 flat deck.

My questions are:

1) What engines and drives did these boats come with?

2) Does anybody have any pictures of these boats???

3) What was the top speed for these boats?

4) Does anybody have any info. on the 38KV that was used in Miami Vice?


I really love the looks of these boats.

Thanks in advance,

QD

That thread is cool but it does not answer some of the questions that I still have.

Re: Scarab 38 KV and 377 flatdeck questions.

Lots came with 400 cyclones (454) and TRS.
With that power, they ran in the high 60s.
The Miami Vice boat was a 39 chris craft in early episodes, later a 38KV.
Got a few pics, (especially of mine) but no where to post them.

Re: Scarab 38 KV and 377 flatdeck questions.

hey qd, wellcraft loaned the boats to universal. after the show was over they were given back to wellcraft, then sold. I have one of them. It was a complete restoration.I will post pics if you would like to see them.
