no, I found it in the classifides, this past summer. I was looking for one for a while.. They are around.. a bit hard to find.. I have seen some of the 37's on this site. It has a sinister look to it.. I am the 3rd owner, was purchased in Florida. I will redo the engines eventually, still in the planning stages.

Hi Chris. I had a 230 a few years back. It was cream coloured with gold and black trim.
I did not like the OMC's much but the boat was great! Had lots of fun.

Maybe I'll see you out at Port Dalhousie? I'm there three to five times a week...or more???

I have an 86 230 scorpion, black and white with 454 and thru hull. I"ve never had a bad time on that boat, but if the snow ever melts here I'm going to try and sell it. Anybody have guess what it;s worth in this market?

Hi I have a Stinger 390X 1985 that I have completely customized. Please take a look @ www.oceansidemarine.page.tl. I wonder where did you get your windshield ? Do you make em ? What kind of power do you have in your 390X ? I am thinking of putting at least 1000 HP each in mine eventually and hit the dream zone 100 mph . Any ideas if it would be possible without blowers ?

Hi there.
To be perfectly honest with you I don't think you will get the 100 mph crest??? Tops, you might get about 85 with some 1171 blowers...possibly? the hull will not take that kind of punishment and I don't think it will cruise at that speed???

87 stinger I made the windshield out of oak plywood and foam then glassed it up. it took a lot of time but turned out nice. as far as speed i am running over 85 and should hit 90.with the right power and set up 100 is possible. but not without blowers or turbos. good luck.
