To have done work on a mint MV KV that is stored up at Bonnie castle in Alex bay on the 1000 islands.. But I've personally never seen it and I've been up there my whole life.. Maybe this helps at all for a northern boat?

That would've been the restored season 2 boat. It's now in Mooresville NC

Some one had contacted me about putting mine on the facebook site and I forgot to call him back and lost his number. Sorry about that if it was one of you guys. Give me a shout if yoiu see this. I'm the one with the MV boat in Greenville NC that I purchased a couple years ago from Jim Launder. Same one that has all the good youtube footage. Just had the motors serviced so she's ready to get wet.

Good to hear from you Tom. Interesting project you have under way. Looking forward to seeing it.
Do you have any pics from the Star 1 restoration. I would like to put together an album of the restoration on the Vice Scarab fb page.

Hey Wayne, I did the restore myself with lots of help from friends. I will see if I can dig you up some photos.

That would be great Tom. The boat generates a lot of interest on the fb page. We've had many requests for pics of the restoration. You can send them to me at [email protected]
When do you figure to have the current project finished?
Wayne.

I know this is an older thread, but wanted to see if anyone might know of any 38KV Miami Vice Editions that are for sale that aren't major project boats. Would prefer not to have to repaint or repower. Any info would be much appreciated!!
