Head getting better. Boat scratched though. Dang it!

Damn I hate when that happens .

Super effin cool heath, congratulations.
now get to work on the other 38.

Thanks we ran the boat again about 70 miles Saturday. Still fine tuning things like trying to sync up the throttles and shifters closer, trying to locate 2 persistent slow oil drips. I’m looking forward to getting the upholstery in the cockpit and cabin finished up over the winter and having a complete boat next year.

Here’s another video I found on my phone that my brother Brian took the first day we ran it in June and a photo we took last Saturday evening.

Never before secret spy footage of the New Miami Vice

That Miami Vice paint scheme on the Fountain would definitely make Reggie frustrated, Dan. Personally, I'm finally getting hip to the new contemporary, so-called 'Scandinavian' boat design language, and might get rid of my Team Scarab. The flat deck design is getting really dated. Poor Heath, after all these years getting the Scarab restored and now it's hopelessly out of fashion. Think about it, starting at only $550,000 one could purchase a new stylish Wellcraft 35-footer?

Yes. I am aware of the impracticality of my boat. My wife wonders why there is no swim deck? Also she wonders why we can only seat 6 adults in the cockpit of a 38 foot boat? (that's when we finally get the upholstery installed, we're riding around in lawn chairs now! lol) At 54 years old I am concerned only with the nostalgia/cool factor. :D I have to say it's hard for me to look at the boat you posted and not think that it is pretty darn ugly. I wonder about the bow design, you see those on the haulover videos. On top of being gross looking, it seems it's really good for soaking everybody in the boat? I don't know, guess I am showing my age.

That's funny :D

that thing is hideous!
