I'm looking forward to reading Wellcraft posts. iboats is the web site that others aspire to be.

I'm not sure. I'm not much of a Wellcraft historian, however, I'm sure that someone here at iboats will have some info for us.

Not at all. Wellcraft wants to focus on fishing boats. I think Larry Smith still makes Scarabs, he was the original designer.

If you've made up your mind to get it done, you have found the most helpful forums on the net. I had quite of bit to do on mine and would never have been able to get it done without help from a lot of helpful people here at iboats. Good luck! Joe
