    Scarab/Chaparral/Glastron and BRP Powersports!

    Good News! But, I am still a little skeptical whether these non-Scarab dealers are going to take on additional work. Hope they due.....

    Check your hose clamps!

    I found several of mine loose when I went to repair the exhaust hose that fell off. I had Marine Max accomplish two services (10 hour and 25 hour) and you would think they would have checked hose clamps....

    Possible lawsuit against Scarab/Glastron/RBH (discussion thread)

    Update... Went back to the boat with the intentions of finding out what I needed to fix the exhaust line that fell off. What I found was the double clamps that they put on the hoses were loose... I could turn them with my fingers.. I pulled all of the hoses off to make sure that the plastic...

    Scarab deck rug damaged

    I'm trying to figure out why someone would have to spray the rear deck during a boat inspection? Were they doing you a favor to clean it off? Sorry, couldn't help but ask....

    Scarab 195 HO impulse. Taking on water? Sinking? Why?

    Sounds like the exhaust dump pipe. The carbon seal would dump that much water into the bilge. Look into the engine compartment way back on the right side of the engine and follow it all the way back to where a 3" black hose takes a 90 degree turn and passes through the hull. See if that 3"...

    Possible lawsuit against Scarab/Glastron/RBH (discussion thread)

    @Robert Sands Good Question!

    Possible lawsuit against Scarab/Glastron/RBH (discussion thread)

    No offense taken. I would say that the engine shutting down and the bilge pump pumping water over board was the early warning.. The water only has to be about 1/2 deep in the bilge and the pump will come on. When a 3 inch line comes off a connector that passes through the hull to the open...

    Possible lawsuit against Scarab/Glastron/RBH (discussion thread)

    I am about to pull the trigger on just what you are talking about. I just wished that we had more people who would come forward and list the similar issues and go at it with numbers... You might want to check yours, if you don't know what you are looking at, the compartment will flood...

    Possible lawsuit against Scarab/Glastron/RBH (discussion thread)

    Mine fell off yesterday. I was cruising along the ICW near Mary Ester and my boat shut down in the middle of the channel; then I heard my bilge pump pumping water over board. Opened the engine compartment and there was a 3 inch stream of water coming into the compartment. Luckily, I was able...

    2016 Scarab 195 Limp Mode

    Check to make sure that the coil pack for each cylinder is seated properly over the spark plugs. I had a similar issue and found that the #1 cylinder coil pack came off the spark plug. Looking at it will not give you an indication that it is loose, you need to push on them to make sure it is...
