Default do you have a picture of the boat SOLDIER OF FORTUNE in florida?

Back in...93-94 maybe, I was of course younger, and one of the first boat that really caught my attention was, if I remember right, a 38-43 scarab (might be something else also) on a dry rack in the Pompano beach area. Can't remember exactly what was the paint but it was called, on the sides of the boat, SOLDIER OF FORTUNE, with images of soldiers on the sides also.

Did this belong to someone on the board? Have you seen this boat lately? do you have a picture somewhere to post?

Just curious to see that boat again...

can't recall for sure... but There were american flags on it, 3-4 soldiers on the sides with some gold banner where I think it was written in it ( in black) soldiers of fortune, it was not all red that is for sure, but there was a little of red somewhere in the paint scheme...

around 1994 the "Soldier Of Fortune" boat was a solid red 42' Fountain with triples, Gold and Black stripes and a Green Beret hat and 2 crossed sword on the sides along with the name "Soldier Of Fortune". It stayed on a lift in Harbour Beach in Ft. Lauderdale

you are probably right! I did not / could not remember the brand nor the boat color, but you are right on it with Gold and Black stripes and a Green Beret hat and 2 crossed sword on the sides along with the name "Soldier Of Fortune". thanks Blume!
