    Service in the DFW(Texas) area

    Correct, Marine Max as well as North Texas Marine are no longer Scarab dealers. So currently, there are no Scarab dealers in the DFW area.

    Superchargers serviced

    Actually, the manual states 200 hours regardless of years. Note 2. (In my manual anyway)

    Rotax 4 Tec supercharger breaks apart at 100 hours???

    Yes, and it happens at exactly 100 hours. Ok, kidding. Scarab supercharger rebuild recommendation is 200 hours.

    Scarab Rotax fault code P0130

    Old Tailhooker, I need to have that service bulletin done on my Scarab also. Who did you take it to in the DFW Area? What did you fly? Walt (F-14s)

    Considering a Tacoma as a Tow Vehicle......Thoughts??

    Not at all. Plenty powerful enough for that. I upgraded to the Tundra for a bigger cab.

    Considering a Tacoma as a Tow Vehicle......Thoughts??

    I ended up trading in the 2016 Tacoma for a 2017 Tundra. The Tacoma did a fine job towing however the Tundra feels much more stable and I think is a better platform simply because of it's size, either and additional power. Walt

    Questions for Ron@Scarab (Or anyone that knows the answers)

    No room in the engine compartment of the 215. Under either rear side bench seat would work perfect,,,, as long as you don’t have the ballast bags. Walt

    Questions for Ron@Scarab (Or anyone that knows the answers)

    I could not find a place I liked that would either not interfere with the ballast bags or be all the way up at the helm so I have not installed a second battery. Walt

    The new ACE 300 HP engine. The game has changed!!!

    My 215 HO, 500HP, does 60 MPH so I can believe 70MPH with the twin 300HPs. Walt

    Touch Screen Command Center- Navigation lake chart upgrade: Update!!!

    I like it fine however I would recommend you get the enhanced level detail chip from Navionics.

    Medallion Viper 2 System

    It does give significantly more detail and I like it. It’s not all that expensive either and once you have it, you have it. I’m not sure all that much changes after the first year. Walt

    Medallion Viper 2 System

    Yes the issue was resolved. The Touch Screen had an internal failure and the dealership replaced it under warranty. It has been working fine since then. (About 10 hours of use thus far) Sorry, I totally forgot about this thread! Walt

    New Scarab Member - 2018 195 HO Platinum

    Commander, Welcome to the Scarab community. Sorry to hear about the issues you speak of but you are not alone. Many have experienced the same or even worse. I love my 215 HOI Wake but I had some early growing pains also with the boat. As for the ski locker in the back if it's anything like mine...

    Scarab 215

    I finished the boating season last year with about 19 hours so the boat is broken in and yes I am very happy with the performance. In smooth water she will go 60 MPH and will get there pretty quickly.

    Winterized with the Scarab cargo cover

    You may also want to invest in an engine bay heater for the winter. http://www.xtremeheaters.com/choose

    Buying a 2018 Scarab

    I have a 215 with twin 250 HPs and I love the acceleration they provide. I would not be happy with the 200s after experiencing what I have with my 250's. It's definitely a personal choice but consider resale also, you will have more potential buyers with 500HP. I also drive a 600+ HP 997 Turbo...
