That´s about all I can tell except later of the boat that´s over here and it´s real life which is also almost movie material... In a nuthsell Imported as a pr and "raceboat", been stolen at least once, rented to a ski jumper ( Matti Nykänen) who used it on a lake, has run away from the coast guard and cops at least once, blown the original engines at least once, almost been shot at, Stripped, painted wrong, confiscated by IRS and finally being equipped with diesels and sat now for a long time on land.
So a hard life it has had...

Maybe time for it finally to get a good home...

Post some pics....

Think I have or 38KV has linked it before... but here we go again.

As you can see the arch is white ( was all silver) the Gunnels and Dash is turquise ( both were black aka 88 up paint scheme) the stripe on the hull lacks the purple fading and the outlining is in silver and the Deck stripe is all wrong.
And the bottom is oversprayed as it should be white and is beneath the dark blue is cracking at places.
So this boat needs a (soda)blasting and a total paintjob to be like it was.
Also the interior was missing parts after it was stripped, all the
Plexiglass "windows" in the cabin with the Scarab logos was missing and all the gauges,K-controls etc in the dash as you can see.
Haven´t cought up with the current owner if he ever found the pieces back.

Just to correct an earlier post..you said that on Miami Vice there was NEVER a boat without the Race Hatches--actually there was two episodes I can think of with the sunpad and no race hatches (Like a Hurricane) and (Miami Squeeze) in fact in "Miami Squeeze" they show the 38KV without an ARCH!

Cheers to the MV 38KV boats!

Yes I know I stated that and yes there was. I was wrong about it. The one in Norway is just that boat ! ( maybe Trudys??)

Well the DJ boats was the one which etched my mind to get someday a Go-fast boat as I saw it 1989 when it had just arrived here.
Also the same summer in Ibiza had a lasting impression.
Seing a black hulled white deck and bottom 38 TG/ flatdeck with SSM3´s Cleavers and sofort with one foot tall Golden latters on the hull side stating the boats name CEASAR anchored at a sunny bay will never be forgotten. Had to swim to it up close !
I´ve waited this long and maybe soon my time will come, looks promising at least as we speak.

No worries-

I just want to keep EVERYONE honest! HA! HA!

How much did the original six get auctioned off for $$$$$ money wise?

I´m sure I´ve heard it someday but forgotten all about it.
I guess 150K wouldn´t be far off ?

I am going to be reproducing that poster soon (Month or two) and offering them for sale mounted and coated

Put me on your list--PLEASE!

I may have an original coming in the mail--have not seen it yet, but please count me in!!!!
