If your referring to the 29' scarab I showed in the link it only has a single 496. I bet that's a pretty slow boat.

Nothing to do just add gas, and may be some detailing to make it "pretty" :) I can offer some warranty of a sort. I ordered the boat new in 1994. Or you can buy the Avanti. lol I don't want two.
I doubt you will still have that boat when I'm ready to buy one. I have not when and looked at any yet because I hate tire kickers. Once I get approval for the loan or save some more money I will go look at some and buy one. Your boat seems like a pretty good deal though depending on the all important cruising speed.

Thanks. I will contact him when/if get approved for the loan. Right now I am just looking more for suggestions on what models would work best for me.

Got it narrowed down to 3 boats. I'll just keep an eye out for them and grab the best deal

Sonic prowler
25 active thunder tantrum
251 checkmate

Thanks for all your suggestions guys

There's a 28 Saber with a single I think 525hp in Cleveland Ohio Craigslist.

turbo rr 07-06-2014 08:21 PM
26 Sonic prowler
25 active thunder tantrum
28 pantera
28 velocity.

Those ring my bell!

Fasttoys1 07-06-2014 08:23 PM
Are the 28's single engine? What kind of speeds will they produce?

Padraig 07-06-2014 08:36 PM
A 280 Velocity with a 502 mag will run 70/72.

Good info. I will definetly look into them. I will be towing with a 2004 GMC sierra or an 04 Toyota 4 runner SR5. Any problems towing any of these boats?
