Guys,

Here's the photo that I should have posted instead of the "RAMPAGE" Cigarette shot. That's Jeff Marshall and Smitty in the Scarab "VILLAIN."

Jeff Marshall named the Scarab "Villain" and Eddie Trotta named it "Rampage" if my memory serve me correctly.

John

You are correct, it was Villain with Jeff Marshall.

Reliableone here on OSO has added this Scarab to his fleet. It has been mostly a poker run boat, but it ran in a few races years ago. She was at the our LSC old school reunion last June.

Thank you for posting those pics h2oboater! What a gorgeous boat. I remember I saw it in an ad in DuPont registry years ago. I think the ad said: cruises at 100mph all day long, top speed 115mph.
The only Scarab that is more beautiful is that 46' (?) of Don Johnson (MerCruiser/Lamborghini) that is pictured in the BalTek ad in Searace.

The beauty of the six-pack seating is you can have a tough-guy looking h2oboater lookalike back there monitoring the motors AND handling deep fryer / blender duties! Bet that being a race official was easier?

A cop mustache and cool-guy sunglasses are also a prerequisite!
