Sounds good!! No need to ride down man, I can pick you up in Vero. Think of it as a cruise ship coming to get you. How about Riverside Marina?

Hi Mike
back from my trip up to Jacksonville I had a chance to stop by the scarab dealer and got to sit and see one of the 195 he had in stock felt really good I did take a picture but I cannot figure out how to upload it,Tried to use the upload file but possible the pictures to large. Was just wondering when the cruise ship was coming to get me? Get a chance give me a call

[Reuben Vero Beach FL]

@Reuben Vero Beach FL I got the text!! Ill see you around 11! I want to check out the kayak! Ive been meaning to get one for the family too,lol.

 

[ScarabMike]

@Reuben Vero Beach FL It was great to finally meet you yesterday! You know after you left, we ended up getting stuck on that sandbar, lol. Nothing bad, just needed to get some help pushing the bow off the soft sand. The Sheriff got there with two boats, and started to make people move.

Next time we will have to meet up at the ramp, or a dock so you can drive it.

Hey Mike ! KILLER video and surely wish I had the Mad Skills to both FILM ... and EDIT the way you do.

And love your boat colors, as we all have stated before. Every now and then, on "appointments" it'ld be nice if Yamaha stepped outta their "box" and offered KEWL colors like yours !
Best Wishes and Happy Labor Day Holiday. To everyone.

@MikeyL Thanks man! The GOPRO software has great tools included in it so Ill let them take the credit for the edits, lol. I think the wild colors on these new boats is nice to see. The nicest looking set of colors is on the Mastercrafts. Man they are some sexy boats! Happy "recover" Labor Day to you!

Awesome! Great looking boat and that looks like a cool place to use it!

Has any one had issues with the jet engine cavitation on the scarab 195 boat cause I am and its bad. I can hardly pull up a skier unless its in ski mode

 

[cane.mba]

@Blake, if you are having cavitation issues still you may want to post this in the main forum area. Cavitation will have similar causes no matter if it's a Scarab, Yamaha, Chappy, etc.

Have you checked your impeller(s) to see if there is something stuck in the tunnel? Anything from a pebble, small stick, plastic, to fishing line can cause major cavitation.

 

[ScarabMike]

The only instance of cavitation I have noticed is when doing doughnuts, but it catches and kicks in when I straighten the wheel.

ocean - catch air a lot
lake - perfection
@Blake where you running?

 

[Reuben Vero Beach FL]

Hey Mike just a reminder to get a chance if you could measure your boat on trailer get me total length I appreciate it thank you.

 

[ScarabMike]

@Reuben Vero Beach FL
The boat's trailer with the tongue folded is 19'3" long, and the boat with the tower collapsed is 7'6" tall.

 

[ScarabMike]

The guys at MarineMax snapped this picture of me flying by their dealership. I was out alone yesterday, and I was able to push this thing as much as it could. I hit 46mph and banked left then immediately to the right. The boat just hugs the corners like its on rails. I was impressed to see the it dig into the water like that. Almost felt like the G's you get when you lift off in an airplane. Amazing feeling!! Im so happy right now,lol.

Hi Mike just got back yesterday from upstate New York weather was nice and cool, Thanks for those measurements that you gave me and my garages only 6 1/2 feet high 19'6" deep from the back wall to the door.
Probably going to go with the 165 Max Marine said he would have One in about two weeks,Will take a ride Down there with my wife and check it out.
Are you going to be out this weekend on the river Still dying to get a ride on it And we could do lunch On me if you have the time.

 

[ScarabMike]

Ruben, I might take her out tomorrow. The weather is going to be crappy today because of a cold front coming through. The seas are 3-5ft, and the inter-coastal is choppy and windy as heck.
