Here's a pic Steve sent me of the current power.

Re: The 5 boat
 

BJLESL,

My friends were partners in that boat originally with Steve before he bought them out . I know either they or I have photos of the original scheme.

Did Steve convert it back to 3 man bolsters?

When I last rode in it here in Michigan it ran consistantly around 118. I heard Steve had it up in mid 120's.

Re: The 5 boat
 

Bjlesl did you buy this boat yet . I bought the 43 scarab from Randy Sweers without power and drives and I am hoping to get it in the water this summer. Let me know how you make out.
