    Boat 2017 Scarab 255 Impulse for sale - Florida - $10k price drop

    Yacht broker listed it at $99k but I don't realistically expect that. Private offers have more room for negotiation

    Boat 2017 Scarab 255 Impulse for sale - Florida - $10k price drop

    Hi, I have a 2017 Scarab 255 Impulse for sale. It is in great condition with 110h on the engines. Comes with basically every option, trailer included.

    We are in swfl, punta gorda specifically. Our most common destination is cayo costa or the surrounding sandbars. We have a 2017 scarab 255. Where are you at?

    Double power poles on 255

    Has anyone done powerpoles for anchoring at the beach? Wondering if it's generally enough to hold position all day without causing any stresses that will cause problems. We currently drop anchor a ways off shore then use a beach anchor but it's a little too dicey to do the beach with just...

    Fresh water for shower and pump out, bilge

    Thanks for the reply. I was looking at a 3700 as an emergency bilge pump to keep the water low enough the engines can keep running and get me to shore in an emergency. That sounds like it might be overkill but I've been slightly paranoid by the carbon seal failure and other boats that have taken...

    Fresh water for shower and pump out, bilge

    Hey everyone Just a couple quick questions this time. Is there anything I should be doing for maintenance of the fresh water such as dump and refill, chemicals, etc? Also is it possible/practical to add the pump out toilet aftermarket? Is it just a different toilet or does it actually have...

    Vibration and excess water

    Hi everyone, I've noticed that when flushing the engines on my boat it makes a loud vibration sound that seems excessive. It doesn't make any odd noises unload load of being in water but under the reduced load of flushing its quite a bit louder. I never run the flush very long to prevent damage...

    Engine Compartment Keeps Opening

    Yes, mine hasn't had any issues with that either

    Device plugged into diagnostic port

    Sounds good. I had mine up to about 53mph and it seemed to want to keep pushing but I held it back a bit. If I want to push it harder than that I should be out without my wife, she wasn't as impressed as I was

    Device plugged into diagnostic port

    Without limit what is the top speed of our boats? Mines the 255 500hp

    Device plugged into diagnostic port

    Yea. I bought it with 37 hours on the engines. I figured it was something like that. Unfortunately there isn't a sticker so not sure what it's function is. Thanks for the reply

    Device plugged into diagnostic port

    Hi everyone, I was installing my noco gen2 battery maintainer yesterday and noticed this device plugged into the diagnostic port. It's a small black box with mounting holes but it wasn't mounted. It has a male and female connector for the diagnostic port. Any idea what it could be?

    Matching accessory switches and headlights

    Thats perfect. Thank you very much. Those look like the exact switches in the 2017 as well.

    Matching accessory switches and headlights

    Hi everyone I'm looking to add some accessory switches for headlights and my boat lift remote. Has anyone found switches that match the stock ones? Also if anyone's added switches can you post pics of the layout? I'm also looking to add a couple headlights to the towers for those later...

    No or low wake speed

    Thank you for all that useful info. It sounds like I should definitely get trim tabs. I believe my area is slow speed not idle speed but I'll have to double check.

    No or low wake speed

    Thank you. I will definitely look into that. I have the wake tabs that actually make the wake bigger (not installed) I was thinking of trying to make a modified set that would offset the wake and hopefully cancel some out. Trim tabs sounds promising tho, didn't realize they had that benefit

    No or low wake speed

    Just curious, I live in a spot where I have a decent distance of no wake canals to get out in the gulf. What speed can you guys go on a no wake zone? I feel like everyone else is going 6-8mph but i feel like I'm pushing it in the high 4s. I'd love to increase to 6-7 since it would make a...
