Why not talk to the guy who developed the drive and is still in the offshore business. Given the date of your boat's build I bet he even knows it's history and was involved with it. Click on his resume and then contact information.

I have the same boat but it has the TRS drives. I noticed you are missing the vents on the side. Well mine were in bad shape... So we fiberglassed them in and made three new better looking vent holes.

Thanks LeeS and sd for the info and the interest in the project...sd we have the vents for both sides and believe it or not they are in great shape..Would like to see pictures of your boat, give me an idea what to shoot for !! LeeS thanks I have looked at his web sight before not thinking to contact him..will give him a try.. Thanks to All ..Again

I have recently purchased a 38 scarab with asd8s and 540 big blocks. According to everything I have found it was build by John Connor and from what I read on an old post sounds like your old boat? If it was or is indeed your old boat it would be appreciated to get some history and or old pics when it was original. it has been painted all white but I know it wasn't white originally because there are chips where I can see other colors. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Tim Glidden
