Hammer vs. Scarab
Ok I'll admit....I looked at a few Scarabs before buying the Hammer. I didn't like the cuddy room of the Scarab, or the design of it....it just looks a lot smaller then a Hammer. Anyways, I've been trying to find out some info on the 2 boats to see how they match up. Most of what I have read or been told is that the Hammer is faster, depending on motors of course. I just liked the design and look of the Hammer a lot better then I do the Scarab. I have seen plenty of 22ft Scarabs running around here locally and I'm wondering how I would come out if I kicked down with one someday. My hammer has the 454 mag so maybe that would be a little extra edge

22 scarab is a decent boat, but has nothing in the cabin and has standard quick silver shifter and not performance zero effort controls and has a 1975 looking dash with no gaffrig gauges 
but you can buy a used 22 scarab for 16,000-18,000 bucks and they don't make anything less than a 26' boat which is know special order and the next up is the 29

dloftis - good question, I'm not real sure on that myself??
Yeah I was not too much for the interior of the Scarab....I thought the outside looked pretty good, some have some aweful graphics. The inside just looks cheap and when compared to a Hammer there's no contest. I was just curious how they match up performance wise.....has anybody ever run one?
