I just did a major refit on a 38' AVS Scarab.......I did the stringers and transom (composite) so when I go to sell it that is one last thing a potential buyer will have to worry about. I put Fresh rebuilds ATECO 540's and its nearly perfect, I am not planning on selling her anytime soon but if I ever did it will be way in the the $100,000.00 mark I probably have 130-50K invested but IT IS MY BOAT! I love her!
Just went ahead and busted out another GRAND and had her compounded and waxed, something I usually do myself but having some pros do it made that boat sparkle like new! Plus it gets addicting seeing all these restorations, its pain but the sweet taste of victory and reward is awesome!
Now I am considering a 43' AVS......I must be insane!

We’re all insane Randy. How else can you describe it? 😀 I’ve spent 7 years and 4 months working on my boat so far (still working on upholstery) and I am just now taking my wife for a ride. In a lawn chair in the cockpit. She thoroughly enjoyed our evening ride Saturday and somehow that justifies my work?? lol. That is insane.
