Wellcraft made the decision to discontinue Scarab. They will more than likely keep the molds in case they decide to re-enter the market later. Kind of a shame, but Genmar chairman Irwin Jacobs didn't get rich by making bad decisions. You can love him or hate him but he is one of the smartest businessmen I've ever had the pleasue to meet.

I was reading that the performance boat industry is too crowded with boat company's and wellcraft was NOT selling enough scarabs So they said No more. It was costing to much $$ to keep that boat line up n running. wellcraft wants to keep focus on the fishing boat line they said that is where the money is at for them.

I have had the pleasure to run twice in Florida waters along side a beautiful 38 Scarab.
Man, I have to say that is one of the most beautiful boats in the water. The attitude of that boat at speed is SWEET!
I hate to see them go, now that I have interest in them. But they really have not made many changes and the cabin is a little dated.
Oh well, maybe they will return someday even better.
So Long Scarab
