29scarab 01-22-2002 03:58 PM

I pick mine up at this one convenient store in Clear Lake. Thats the only place I've seen sell it.

Not sure about the trader online thing!!

SCARABJ 01-23-2002 06:28 PM

somkin joes would be nice but a little pricy I am looking to spend 150,000 or under. what a great boat though!!!

FWK 01-24-2002 09:46 AM

Hi scarabj look on www.lakeozarkboats.com Raymonds boat and motors has a 43 with triples and 25 hours. More than you are looking to spend but who knows. My brother in law just bought a 400 express for 135 and they were asking over 200k for it. It looks like a nice boat. Forrest

SCARABJ 01-24-2002 09:04 PM

SCARABJ 01-24-2002 09:05 PM

James good luck. Forrest

Raymond's has had that boat for a few years. I believe that it is a demo that was never sold, so they have had it since 95. I don't think they will accept much lower than 210. Also, I think I was told that it has 454's, not 500's, which is why it hasn't sold. I can't remember if that is the boat or not. You may want to get in touch with Dave (Later), I think he knows more about that 43.

later 01-28-2002 11:08 PM

the 43 scarab that raymonds has is a new boat with demo time. has triple 450hp basicly a 454 500hp roller cam carb motor with gil exhaust. i just saw it addvertised in the trader down there this weekend 1/26-27 for 159,00.00 or 169,00.00. just sits in their shed collecting dust. some times they get real proud of their boats and well sometime the good lord just tells them their gona get this much for it. thats a joke me and the wife have. in 94 we tried to buy a 43 black thunder from them i think it was the very first one made. anyway it was a big roomy boat they were asking 96 or 98,000 dont remember which. we offered 10,000 less and charlene told us the good lord told her she was going to get 96,000 for that boat. i asked her did the good lord tell you by whom because it wasn't me and walked away. there good people and i have bought 2 new boats from raymonds including my present boat a 42 fountain. i guess the good lord moves in many ways that we dont understand but one week later after the black thunder deal i found my first fountain a used 90 42 that i loved and have been a fountain person since. oh by the way they had that black thunder until 1999 is when the sold it for a few thousand less then my offer. i guess the lord reconsidered.

FWK 01-28-2002 11:13 PM

James did you ever talk to Raymond's about the 43? Forrest

RedZone 01-29-2002 12:28 PM

Call Mel Riggs Marine @1.920.921.5330 and ask about Dr. Bairds 43 with Triples. This is a really cool boat and the Doc wants to move it fast. You could get a great deal on the boat.
He was very maticulous about how he took care of the boat. CALL HIM!!!!

SCARABJ 01-31-2002 10:13 PM

forrest i have not had time to call them i am going to try fri. I found one in mi but it has a dark blue hull. not good here in the sunshine state! I am sure one will show up soon. for now i will settle with my 30 scarab that runs 94.7 on rader. i just recived my new drives. xrs with imco 2inch shorters looking for a few mph more. also the moters in the 43 do not matter i will be using my 509 blown eickerts and have him build a third. whatever the 43 has in it will go in my 30. thanks guys for all the help. James

I think theres a 46' Scarab flatdeck with twin 3208s and
#8 arneson drop boxs (Chuck
Norrises) old Kevlar race boat
It is now in the British Virgin
Islands and has been on a hydro
Hoist or in a warehouse.
Converted from 3 man bolster in
front, and 2 man in rear to custom Standard seating.
EMail me, I did the conversion
while I worked at SCARAB in Ventura,California.

buck183 02-02-2002 08:47 PM

SCARABJ, No problem.

Here's the link to the one I thought was cool looking. Maybe I'm wierd, but I thought it was cool.
http://adcache.boattraderonline.com/6/0/1/1361201.htm

By the way, I was at the Tulsa, OK boat show today. They had an '02 29' Scarab w/ 350 mags. The boat show price was 81k. Is that pretty good?
