Me either. I did try to turn a friend onto it though, and he said it is not in anywhere near the condition that those pictures show. This was about 4 months ago, and he's someone that I know more than well enough to rate what he meant as negative. I haven't seen it myself though, so I don't know if he meant it was "dirty" or is was "trashed".

I really like the boat and don't think he's too far off on price. Now, if I could just unload a nice Scarab...

Like I've said before man: I'd still have it along with the Skater, if the guy that bought it hadn't wanted it so bad. I sold it with close to 300 hours on the Zuls, and I heard he ran it for another like 250 hours before deciding to go ahead & freshen them, but didn't have to. That boat ran like a SOB.

My friend here in MI has a T/S with 725 Zuls and it will run 98-99 everyday in fresh water. I have been on it and somewhere might have a pic of the recall showing it.

Yes it went to loto, and is still there as of Shootout weekend.
I randomly noticed it posted in Jay's picture thread from this years Shootout:
The owner had the fairing painted yellow shortly after he bought it from me, but everything else is the same from what I can tell. It looks like he's still enjoying it!
