1991 31' Scarab Excel at LOTO
Anyone familiar with this boat?

Good deal or not?
Has to be AT LEAST a 70mph boat with 500hp per side, doesn't it?
Any good feedback on these Excels?

How is it in the rough? How does it compare to other 31' boats out there? How is the rough water ride compared to a 1990 Formula 292 SR-1?

31 Excel
I have a 1989 31 Excel with 454 magnums. All stock - for now. I cannot believe how well this boat handles the rough water. Night and day better than my 1998 PQ 260 XL. Test drove it in 4 to 5 foot waves of Lake Erie and it is so much nicer to have a little weight and 6 plus additional feet of boat! Can't wait to test it in Grand Traverse Bay next year.

I'm running 23P 3 blade mirage. Boat is completely stock. Toasted starboad engine during poker run this summer. Looking at building a couple 489 strokers for spring. As far as rough water I haven't had any situations where I was even close to nervous. Even between 50 other boats and thier wakes. I am seriosly considering a newer stepped 38.
