Bought new last year, have had our share of QC issues etc with it. Put 41 hours last year, thankfully no major BRP issues. Took first ride of this year last night, so far we love the boat . . . just waiting for the next QC hammer to drop.

Only had it on the water once, and it’s a different animal from what I’m used to. Love it so far.

Season 4, 85 hours later, still good, still happy! *Knocks on Wood*

I just have a plain old black 215HO, no hull graphics or wake tower to catch the eye, yet every time I pull into the marina I'm catching compliments. :)

I recently got a 2016 165 HO and I love it! I've had quite a few PWCs but this is by far already my favorite. Plus my best friend, Beau the greatest yellow lab ever, like it too. (but only in smoooooth water)

First time posting. I bought my 2015 Scarab 255 HO impulse with 37 hours on it about three weeks ago. I had to drive about ten hours to go pick it up. I love the look and I've only had a chance to put it on the water twice. Both times I got rained out heavy. I found this sight after purchasing my boat and to be honest all the mechanical issues everyone was posting started to scare the crap out of me. I know this site is meant to help each other out and I've already learned quite a bit. I'm glad to know there are some positive Scarab owners. I guess look at it this way...All pretty ladies have some issues but it sure as Hell doesn't keep us running after them. LOL
You will LOVE it!
