How much does it cost? How fast does it go? And how much does it take to fill it up? :)

Absolutely! It's as much of an art piece as it is a boat! (Gorgeous art piece I might add) I have an original Kaama Scarab (with Kaama Drives) I'm restoring. (my first "big" boat--still have it) 85' Scarab, installing the latest version Kaamas, two Gentry Engineering Twin Turbos BBC going in with a Retro-modern interior and modern revamp of the original paint scheme. Retro-Rod!!! It's like building a high-dollar 32' roadster with a flathead Ford--it just fits the art!

He didn't like the old school pushrod blower engine in it so he put in some twin turbo Merc 1100's. He still has the MTI along with Scalp Hunter, nice to have options. :drink:


We put 1350s in the MTI!!! Not 1100's. It rolls out!

Lots of imagination and outstanding craftsmanship. The result is over the top. It's an art piece. Reminds me of when I truly admired a Salvador Dali painting the first time.

The owner gotta be applauded for having the bravery to do this with an '80s offshore legend, but I'm still not sure these custom restos are my cup of tea, no matter the

amazing quality of materials used or the spectacular colors. Is it sensory overload due to a modern take on a Gatsby-era display of dazzling wonder? This one got me

really confused, but one thing is undeniable, it will make an impression on All and it won't be forgotten in time. I guess that's the definition of great art, it affects You.

yes, if youre on FB they posted some vids. Mitch was texting me as they were testing. 88mph at 5000rpm, a few more tweaks, should be 100-105 is the estimates
