Rick and I got together about 2 weeks ago through the Club Facebook page:

Awesome, I love the Vice Edition Scarab. I'm a huge fan of Miami Vice too. I'm sure you know that there were Miami Vice Edition boats which the stripe is slightly different than the ones used in the show. In the show, the stripe goes down to the water. Enjoy that beauty!

Did Rick sell you the R/c model he has too? Ask him to show it to you when you pick it up. It's very cool.

I did see it, very cool.

At first the RC was included with the boat sale but in the negotiation, he got to keep it :-)

Congrats on a super cool boat. I'd love to have one of those (as I'm sure most of us between 35 and 45 would).
