38 1989 Scarab excell
 

I have recently acquired a 1989 38’ Kevlar Scarab excel ex Drambuie boat originally powered by 2x650 hp gentry turbo engines.
Does anyone know the difference between the excel model and the thunder model?
The boat is currently being rigged with a single 1600 hp turbine with power being split to two arneson surface drives.
Does the scarab excel make a good boat? As It seems to have only be made for a short period of time.

Do you have any pictures of the turbo motors?

Any pictures of the boat?

Re: Scarab excell
 

Sorry no engine pics as I bought the boat without power
Full paint job being planned soon

Re: Scarab excell
 

What drives were on it ?

Re: Scarab excell
 

Speedmaster IV on extension boxes 1.5-1
The complete drive assemblies are up for sale 1 drive is good the other needs a rebuild as the top bearing went.

$6000 the pair

Thoughts on new paint design ?

Re: Scarab excell
 

The Thunder models were supercharged and I believe had an upgraded interior. I saw one when they first came out and it had leather interior, I don't know if this was standard or made for the boat show.
