Back in the mid to late 80's I was a regular at Sundays on the Bay in my 454 magnum powered Velocity! It was always a cool place to go on saturday evening to check out all the high performance boats rafted up!

BUP - The 24 molds were not in great shape. The guy who bought them was in the trailer business. He'd never built boats before. I doubt if any were ever constructed. If I remember he was over by Dallas.

Yes xxxx. Julito named the company Scorpion but he had partners as well including Randy Sosa and the guys from "Cuban Jewelers". His Dad, Julio Sr. also worked in the shop and was in charge of purchasing/ parts...etc.

I have to admit he was one hell of a boat builder back in the day.

Any Idea on how many 32s were built?
Thank you

My guess - and it's a guess - around 50 to 60. This includes flat decks, Elegante' and Center console.

Also keep in mind the Avance and Tempest are identical hulls to the 32 Scorpion.
