    help. Scarab 195 with 200hp or 250hp?

    Hi! We are in the process of buying a 2016 scarab 195 200hp. Wondering if that's enough power? Everyone mostly has the 195 HO 250hp models and I can't find any information. What's your input?

    Is it typical for white smoke to come out the back of the boat?

    I have a new 2015 195 Scarab. We've noticed smoke comes out the back lingering a bit near the swim platform. It is particularly noticable when RPM is over 5500. Is this normal, or does it indicate a problem? Less concerning is my low oil pressure alarm. It came on one evening several times...
