Scarab63, saw your posts on the "apache scout ?s" thread. Did you mean Bob Saccenti ? The Scout molds belong to Defender but Bob is very involved with the Scouts comeback. Between the new Chief race boat "Warpath" and the Scout, he's keeping pretty busy.....

Yes....sorry on the misspell.
Very cool boat. Any tweaks planned to design?
My bud did buy that 95 scout with a merc 300x I was talking about on the other thread.
I got about 10 minutes seat time in it. It's a fukkin handful!!!!

Scarab63, Good to hear from you... I have no plans on redesigning the Scouts exterior, don't want to move away from the "Classic Saccenti" styling . We do have plans on the drawing board for a center console fishing version of the Scout. Ask your buddy to give Bob a call for some advice on his 95. Any pic's of the 95?

What part of Miami are you in ? Any plans on buying the 41 molds ?

Defender 21' Scout
 

No plans in acquiring any 41' molds. I'm focusing on the smaller range of performance boats, primarily the 21' Scout.
I'm in the Kendall area of Miami. Looking for something in the 40 range?

What kind of materials and methods are planned?
Do you have a target weight in mind?

And BTW, I love the idea of redoing these classics!

I know Bob Saccenti upgraded the original lamination schedule using today's newest composite materials and technology.
We do not know exactly how much the hull and deck will weigh until we pull the first boat. Bob did say the new Scout will be lighter and stronger than the original ones he built.....

pretty cool, any inboard versions or all outboards?

badazz looking boats,5oohp smallblock in it.maybe run in the 80s
