"No propeller-drive boat in its size range can outpower or outmaneuver the 21-foot Scarab 215 ID...At wide-open throttle, the 215 ID topped 60 mph with a crew of two aboard. And this Scarab handles like a sports car. The steering is quick, and the boat responds instantly, carving neatly on the 21 degrees of deadrise its hull presents to the water and delivering a smooth ride in lake chop."

"The mission of the Scarab 165 ID can be described in one word: fun. This 15-foot-9-inch runabout can be ordered with up to 300 jet-drive horsepower. With a full tank of gas, it weighs only about 1,700 pounds. That’s an exciting power-to-weight ratio—one that will rip from zero to 30 mph in a tick over 4 seconds and top 57 mph in a flash with a crew of two grinning boaters aboard."
