Must be the Lake St Clair water.

It looks like a Scarab to me. Has all the right lines to be one.

That looks like a Sea Ray that use to race around Peche Island and Belle Isle on the Detroit River back around 1976. That thing was fast and looked like yours, is it that one? What exhaust manifolds do you run? Here are a few more pic's of my 1980 JAWS Super Sport.
