I would think to import a bare hull to the US would be no problem. You could probable stack 4 or 5 together like dixie cups and then put them in a container. Then do the same with the decks. Once here join together and put on a Serial #. Just call them molds.

You guys are terrible, talking about outsourcing labor to South America and circumventing tariffs/taxes. But I'll still take a 29', just drop it in Miami for the outboard bracket and interior, I'll grab it in the spring! LMAO

"33 AVS by Team Scarab" would work for me

IF.......and it is a big IFFFFF

IF.....Someone had molds that are not being used...... in the sizes of 24, 28, and 39 all proven deep vee designs, without steps. Or with an insert in the mold, we can have steps added.

What kind of interest would there be for simple hulls and decks put together with just the fuel tank installed? And at what price? Any dealers interested?.

Smaller sizes, 24 and 28, have both sport deck and center console decks. 39 mold could be blocked down to a 36 footer.

Phil.... PM me with an approx cost quote.

I know the 38 AVS ran very well in most water conditions. Didn't Eliminator use the 38 AVS for their builds. Or was it a 42 or 43 from Eliminator using a Scarab design / mold.. something like that.

I think importing things into the states is easy as far as i know. I shipped muy 32manta here to Colombia inside a hi toc container for 3800 bucks it has an Armstrong offshore bracket and 300 rudes on it. I think build the hull and decks here ship them to fl and rig them there. We could install anything that needs to go in the hull before the deck goes on down here...

didn't seem like Eliminator built many of the 43s?? I only ever saw 1. I always loved the look of the old Scarab III. I guess that mold was destroyed long ago.

I wonder if guys with older, rotted hulls would buy them to put their power into?
