I've seen that boat at his dealership for several yrs now and always thought it looked like it was built like a tank, no flooring and such. Just been thinking lately that it may be a peice of past history and never knew it.

I don't know if it has been mentioned yet, but how about Ocean Spray from the mid to late nineties. They built a Scarab before switching over to Fountain.

Also, Augie Penza is currently campaigning a Scarab and Nigel Hook until a couple years ago was campaigning a Scarab.
