Default Looking for my old Scarab

I was wondering if anyone knows the whereabouts of my old boat. It was sold out of New Wave Marine in Deptford NJ in 2000 or 2001.

The admiral has given me tentative permission to buy it back if it can be located and is for sale. Thanks for the help. By the way, Kenny at New wave did the Imron paint.

Boat was sold to a guy in north Jersey or New York.

Here we are getting ready to go for a spin around the the week of Thanksgiving. I believe these pics were from '91. Boy I'm getting old.

I hear ya on that. I have a car I sold after owning it for 18 years and wish I had never sold it. Difference here is the car is 1 mile from my house and is up for sale. If I only had the extra $$$.

Good luck on your search. Cool ride!

First off red pants not mine. I'm wearing the black sweatshirt leaning into the boat in the second pic. Gil, dry to the tips. 75 mph. I do remember on that day when we started out Great Egg inlet it was so stupid rough that I actually had to wait for a gap wide enough between the swells to spin the boat around and come back in. Every fourth one was curling on top right in the center of the channel. The swells were monsters that day.

that is such a cool boat. 75, your in the big boy club in the 1990s there where only a few heavy hitters running better then! Post more pics!! I remember running with INDIGO out of the great egg inlet and lost sight of the boat, it gets rough, and teaches you quick! What kind of drives? TRS? can you run trailer reg? something to tie the boat/ trailer / owner there cant be that many scarabs of that perticular year reg. I researched it a little and you can order (Pay for) a national DMV resistration of a perticular model of boat. Boat builders do this to market to a certain area.

all the best and keep nosing around the next. i will keep my i's peeled
