Flap Jack Scarab
 

Who can tell me more about this:

According to Searace Harold Quam ran a 41 Apache monohull in 1987. It's hard to tell if that photo is an Apache but it is not a Bertram that Harold usually ran and it's hard to tell from the small photo. Where did you find the photo? The number 45 is correct for Flap Jack.

He did run a Scarab in KW in the mid 80's an tore the whole side out of it. I am not sure the is this one though.

Howard tried to run second effort v-8 outboard on that boat for a while .

I thought that looked like a Scarab, but is hard to tell from such a small photo.

He also ran a Cat but we know that's not it.

Here's what happened to that boat in 1985.

There you go, that was the boat from Key West. He had run a twin engine active cat in the Superboat class earlier in the year.

@ all: Thank you for the answers. The pic appeared while I was looking for other pics on a google search. Unfortunately there was no larger version available.
I have never seen that boat or heard about it before and was a bit surprised because I think there were not many made of the 43' (?). Was that boat built for Mr. Quam?

Anybody know how many of those were built? I thought perhaps at first that it was the Dietrite hull as per the pic, but unless it had major repair work done to it I guess not...!

Could it be Gentry's old Scarab? Did Tom buy it from Howard? I think Gentry started running the vee in 85.
