Nice to see Larry Smith's 43' Scarab ressurrected! With Eliminators custom touch and a well proven bottom that boat should stir up the waters and give everyone a run for the money!!

The NXT Drives can be tough to prop. We have developed a new 6B propeller, designed just for the NXT's. So far the numbers are great on them. If you need any info feel free to give us a call. The boat is abosolutely gorgeous!

Thanks for the photos. The 43 looks great! Can't wait to see one in person. Went to the LA show this year hoping to see it there.

iamfaster 08-14-2007 09:43 PM

The hull is all hand laid, just like all our other models. This hull is a Carbon/Kevlar option. We anticipate the boat to weigh in at 10,500 lbs, fully rigged. Bob is looking for 120-125mph out of the 1075's...

shueman 08-19-2007 05:10 PM

Paint/Gel Scheme on #3 is going to be awesome...

105 with twin 700 Mercs in a 43 footer is very impressive. What was the time to plane ??

I'll have to ask on that...according to Bob and Johnnie, the overall performance & handling were impressive though...:cool:

ILMORdude 09-14-2007 06:22 PM

Imagine if it was a few hundred pounds lighter due to all aluminum 700hp V-10s..................haha

Boat looks awesome, I'm glad that hull is back!
Did they ever consider mounting the tabs horizontally
