It has twin 454 in it now, they supposedly don't run, the interior is mostly there like in the cabin outside interior us shot. It has the trs outdrives intact all steering and hydraulics for trim and lift. I want it so bad.!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The engines are side by side. One seat on each side and cabin entrance in the center. I looked up an 83 catalog and found a similar scarab ii that has all the teakwood just like this above the windshield and all. Refrigerator. It's identical. Different color. I'm wondering if this puppy may have some hi perf parts inside those old engines if not ruined. Hope I can talk the wife into trading. Heck might throw in my mustang.

It is a very early '80's 30' Scarab II. The flat deck version was the "S" type. Later on the II got a rounded windshield and the "S" became the Panther FWIW.

The boat in the pic is a Scarab 300 basically a panther but with a windshield and a few creature comforts on the inside actually should have a sink in the dash on the port side.

Look at the deck. It has a raised deck. The old 300's, S types and panthers are flat decks.

28 cgsss i agree with you that is the exact boat,

the hull is in good shape. the paint unbelievably great. just needs the inside redone

Us old farts are good for sumthin

My s-type is a raised deck!

Definitely a 30'. Deck looks a bit different than my 84 300 s-type. Might by a panther. Does it have a single rear engine hatch or double hatches?

Really............is it just the center section that is slightly raised or does the deck shoot right up about 4" at the top of the rub rail
like the II does?
