This is going to be a cool project to follow, the original 46-foot Scarab—Tom Gentry's Turbo Eagle.

Thanks Fred for the correction. We weren't sure if it was the first or second but the most famous that's for sure. Should but a fun project!

Very cool. Good find. I remember one of the Gentry Eagles was at Infinity yachts built by Harry Schoel and was later converted to a pleasure boat. My grandad used to own the only Infinity sportfish Harry built and used to see the Gentry in Ft Lauderdale.

Very cool find. I remember back in 1988 Don Johnson was racing the boat in Bay City Michigan and it broke out in the lake everyone was waiting at the dock to get a glimpse of him but he was taken off the boat in a helo and was a no show at the dock !!
