Scarab III's
 

tell me the good an the bad on the Scarab III's. i may pick one up for resale. got a sweet deal on one right now and just wondered about them. this one is an 89 with bravos and stock 365's (i think). guy wants to trade me even up for my scorpion that i'm selling. its actually a decent boat. very usable in its present condition no trailer though. i think he said he put about 20 hours on it this season (he is in the same marina as me). my thought is to do the trade and sell this one instead, i think it may move quicker than my boat. reason i say that is i am asking 15K for mine and at the very worst i think i should be able to get that amount out of this boat. only real weak part of the boat is the wood under the rear bench and the canvas is kinda bad. the gel could use a serious wheeling too . other than that the cabin is great and cockpit is in good shape to. boat has about 600 hours and the owner said he just never liked it, to big and to slow. any thoughts on this deal?

i looked at the boat with the canvas on and didnt pull it all the way off. any body got any good pics of III's?

I like these boats too. Been looking at them for a while. I'd like to get on one and look around sometime.

I'd be interested to know more about what you do Dave. Any pics?
