Going to look at one and maybe test drive this weekend. Is there anything I need to be on the lookout for?

I bought a cv in November. It had the transom redone it was all rotten. Great boat has small block in it is great on gas and handles great in the water. Send pics of boat for sale.

here is one I found on ebay

I've been on Kinzie's 26cv, rides good and handles great! I think you will like the 26cv- - Good Luck!

Had one for 8 years, ran the chit out it with 500hp = 75mph. It really liked a Hydromotive 4 blade prop. Great boat functionally , really great, but marginal quality so have it surveyed. Mine started falling apart and would take on water from an unknown place. Also, they came with a wedge built into the last foot of the pad so have that taken out and the boat runs really well. Good luck, be safe.

lil zeke - did you test the boat - what did you think - took it home with you right ? lets see some pics - i love mine - just don't get enough boat time

no, I actually passed on the boat. it looked good and sounded good, but just just didn't feel comfortable driving it and didn't get the performance that I thought I would.

I own the Scarab here in Austin, remember Lil Zeke (John) when you asked if that was full throttle? I said no, we were only going 3800rpm's, but I wasn't prepared to really hammer her down since I just finished with the Camshaft upgrade and head work, i wanted a little more run time. I appreciate that you didn't hammer it too hard either. She will definitely jump to 60mph + in a heartbeat when full throttled... I haven't ran her too much past 65mph with the prop that's on it.

The boat is for still for sell, I kind of screwed up the Ebay auction by telling the gentleman in DC that I had a deal working here in Austin. But no problems or worries, I will relist it again. Thanks for coming out..
