Default We are officially Scarab owners!!!

Hello to all. After a looooonnnggggg time of being boatless I, along with my brother Clint, have jumped back into the HP boating world head first. We closed the deal yesterday on a 1996 38' Scarab!!!!

The boat has twin Merc. 500 HP's (aftermarket springs and exhaust), pre lubers with timers on both engines, bravo one drives (150 hours) w/ showers, spinning 4 blade Bravo 1 24p props, 280 Kplanes, Gaffrig gauges, Kiekhaefer controls, Garmin GPS, AC, fridge, Extreme Marine swim platform, bow cover and cockpit cover, like new bimini, and beautiful shiny gel coat all the way around.

We are not picking it up until the first week of November. So I will be counting the days until then.......Heres a couple of pics...

Thanks guys!!! My brother Clint (Handicrap) and I found the boat here on OSO in the classifieds. It was only on here for a couple of weeks when we spotted it.
We have been looking for about 3 to 4 months now and when I saw this one I new we needed to jump on it fast.
I have seen boats like this sell in less then a week.
The price was right and Ed Cozzi gave it a clean bill of health. November 8th can't come soon enough!!!
I only have a few pics so here is a few more....enjoy.

Chuck

That thing looks almost like new.... regardless of the year. Some of the best colors I've seen on a Scarab. Congrats!

Thanks guys. I will have to say that we didn't even look at to many Scarabs because all the older models that we were seeing had some really "less then eye catching" colors.

I just happened to be going over the classifieds for like the 497514th time and it caught my eye. I called my bro and we both agreed that this was a very sharp looking ride.

I made some calls and next thing you know it now belongs to us...Now come on November!!!!!

I WANT TO GO BOATING!!!
