difference between pantera 28 & scarab 29
who has been in both boat's that can tell what they think ?
i used to have a single 28 pantera so i know how that ride and handle's but have not been in a 29 scarab .
there are quite a few more scarab's for sale then pantera's in my price range but i need to no what im getting into with the scarab .
twin small block's is fine for the scarab or a big single " depend's on shape and use of boat and of course price "
thank's

I thought you were buying VR's 28 Pantera? As for the Scarab, I had a 29 w/ twin 350 mags. I hated it, not because of the boat itself which had a good ride quality, but because the small blocks were DOGS. It had a good holeshot but after that the throttle response was very lackluster. Kind of like punching the pedal on a Hugo going uphill.
i kinda thought the small block's would be week and it would need some decent power to get moving .

If you want to do anything to it later they can tell you what to build where to get and how to mount it if you want to mod the boat.
- you almost certainly cannot do this with the Scarab.

I would suggest he buy this Sutphen, over the Scarab or the Pantera. I like the 28' Pantera, but a 30' Sutphen is a helluva boat (or the 31' Sutphen too).
