Never understood why no one is building them again. The lines on those boats are as pretty as any of the new boats.

As one of the guys that Wayne heard say "My desire to get an offshore boat started with Miami Vice," it was seriously extra cool when he stopped by my shop on the way back up to Cheeseland. I stood in the same bolster as Crockett! Thanks again buddy, good luck on the resto, and can't WAIT to see her back to glory.

Please do your best to document the complete restoration progress. This forum contains countless lurkers who are dying to see this happen. Done right, this project is worthy of its own room.

Miami Vice is the unifying force that brought so many to this sport (including me). No reason there shouldn't be a stronger focus on that.
Perhaps the company currently using the Scarab name for small boats might not consider resurrecting the big hulls.

You can only drive that boat in white creased slacks, a turquoise t-shirt, pink linen jacket and loafers with no socks

Congrats on a great find and thank you for saving and restoring it for all of us who are here at least in part to it!

You know you hear this in the back of your head every time you open the shop's door.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dEjXPY9jOx8 I would have it rigged to play every time when the door opens.

That's Star 1, the sister boat to mine. They shared filming duties through out season 2 and is now in NC.
Was restored by Tom J, who is currently restoring Betty Cook's KAAMA.
