AHHH I worked at Team Scarab for 12 years and I
can say one thing for sure
Larry Smith would not allow any type of swivel
seat in a Scarab, All seats had to hard mount to
the floor.
A Second strange thing is
that he would not put a
Drain plug in any boat
Race or not that was built
at Team Scarab.
Im not trying to be a smart ass but thats just
how he is.

and why forget about the cat's.. custom work on them is sweet,, and to stand up in the bay and run the controls and tilt wheel is sweet.. anyone and everyone that knows anything about cat.. outside of the HP boats out of CAL can't gave blusters in them

ok here's another for you... say a guy nails a log.. everyone hits something sometime.. take our racks and lay them out and cut them back.. down the sides,, drop the back half.. cut back the your beams.. where am i going???????????

rigging on your own SUCKS!! We had to reposition the sea strainers a couple of times, drill bigger holes for the exhaust, replace guages, drill new holes for the port engine's motor mounts. I do not envy you if it is your profession.

About 8 years ago I replaced all the teak on my old Scarab with 3/4 inch thick cuting board from work. Looked very cool and easy to work with. Now they are selling the stuff as Starboard for about 4 times what its worth. You can buy it from a butcher supply house for a fraction of the cost as West or BoatUs.
