Next boat?

Saw the sistership to this (same graphics, colours, engines etc) in a boatyard across from my mother's house on Long Island. It belongs to the friend of a friend.

It's an 85/6 Chris Craft Scorpion 311. 31 feet, 8 foot beam, 23 degree V by Jean Claude Simon with centre console and cuddy cabin forward. Engines are twin 225 Rudes. One with new powerhead in 02 and the other rebuilt in 02. Boat hasn't been used since then.

It can probably be bought without a trailer for about £7,500 - £8,000.

I think I might have found the boat to take down to Old Virginny next year. Oh yeah, the best part is that my wife says I can have it!

Agreed. Larry Smith did two versions based on the Scarab 30 and Scarab 34 (the 'Baywatch' boat) but I think Chris Craft might have been first.

Another Scorpion 311. I think I'd rather have these engines.
