Scorpion 24, former Frank's Marine.
 

Finally I am gonna start my project to race next year here in Puerto Rico where Offshore is getting a big boom and can't wait!! More info coming later. Its a nice piece of history in this 24 foot hull don't you think ;)

WOW It appeared....That's one of the best if not the best 24 race boats ever with one hell of a crew. Good luck...Cant wait to see it race again.

They are amazing boats!! You will love it!!

Benny Jr,

Great, hope to see you racing the 24 on Puerto Rico when I get there
Congs on a great boat

Wow!
 

That's damned impressive for a 24' boat.

Good luck w/your racing Benny. Looks like big fun.

Now where did that craigslist ad for the 24' project boat get to?

Don't repaint it. Leave the colors the same....great boat!
Oh yeh...and I'll take it just the way it is.

any updates ?

It will be launched on June 6 for the second race of our season here in Puerto Rico. The project was stopped for a few months for personal reasons but it should be finished and tested in less than 3 months from now so stay tuned!

Where are the races in puerto rico? Any website I could check out? Would love to make the run down there if I am done with my boat.

The original poster?
That is a Scorpion 24 by Devaronna ,,
same exact tough boat as the Carrera 24 just different guy building it.

I saw this boat race in Miami back in the day!!! The best 24' race boat in it's class. I think it was #1 in class A for a few years down here. I saw when they were testing the new Mercruiser outdrive on the boat at Crandom Park Marina and Frank was there with the Mercruiser staff testing.... I have a 24' Carrera myself, with the original "Carrera" logo on the side.
