He later passed away. I was wondering, if you have the same boat?

Happy to hear someone who has worked for Betty Cook. I have had the fortune to meet her in Venice in 1978 when she left behind everybody from the start to finish of the race for the World Title.
Do you have photo of the Scarab in version Soxcess?

IMHO The Cigarette 36 Dante's inferno was a famous boat on it's own a Bahamas 500 winner.

Is it my understanding that Mike Huffman owns Kaama #2 and Bull Dog owns Kaama #3? Are these Scarabs Restored by now? If so Is there anyway to get a hold of these owners. I am in the market for a 38 Scarab , staggered, 3 man bolster set up.Thanks again you guys!

There were a couple of Dante's Infernos. One was bought by Betty Cook and became the first KAAMA and then it was sold to Eddie Trotta who ran it as Osmosis.
