I took some pic in the cabin but it was to dark inside to see anything.
The boat was lifted by the incurance company to see if it was a fraud or a accident.
the boat was after what I heard way over incuransed.
And the old owner was clayming them for a lot more then the value of the boat.

The boats were made in south Florida by Julio DeVarona. I think production ended in 1988. They built a 24,32,37 and a CC. He took a 37 with four Merc outboards and made a few record runs from Miami to New York. The tooling was the old Viper hull that raced in the 1970's The boat in your pictures is a 37. It looks like the same one used for there promo material. I think that I still have it around here somewhere. I will try to find it and let you know more specs.
I just looked this up. There is a record that still holds for outboards from Miami to New York. It is held by Julio DeVarona in a 37 Scorpion 08/17-08/19/1984 of 40 Hrs 2Min 0Sec. I hope this helps.
