ScarabTOO...Check you PM id be glad to talk with you.




GUYS THE SEASONS ONLY 2 MONTHS AWAY.......THAT MEANS IN 4 WEEKS IN TIME TO PULL YOUR BOATS OUT, UNCOVER THEM AND START WORKING ON ANY "UPGRADES" YOU HAVE TO MAKE BEFORE THE SEASON!!!


UPDATE!-about a month ago i pulled the scarab (which is shrunk wrapped) into a buddies heated warehouse and i pulled all 6 wheels off the trailer and checked the bearings, re-greased, and made sure the trailer was road worthy before the season. I said "i dont wanna spend a nice summer day working on the trailer, id rather do it now while im bored and laying around". so needless to say shes road worthy. plan is, trailer her to the west side of Michigan and drop her in the water and shoot across Lake Michigan to Chicago for a long weekend. - This trip is planed for last weekend in June.

I plan on going the air races in Detroit June 5th

I plan on going to Put In Bay the weekend of July 30th, if anyone can meet up out there?

And im going to make it to Lake St Clair as well....no date set yet

Anyone wanna meet up?!

And i plan on

yea I might be up for it this year !! I got to get a lower unit for mine !! well see how it goes !!ket me know!!! John

jserb, do you still post on here? I was searching in google and ran across your rebuild. I am planning on rebuilding my scarab in the near future and would like to ask you some questions if you don't mind!
