my brother Jeff, who now resides in Stuart Florida.....his 30' Velocity is nearly completed
the twin 502's and drives are gone, transom is filled, bracket installed, tower is on, new 220 gal custom fuel tank is installed, new electronics, all's left is some outboards.....he hopes to have the boat up in OCMD this summer...here are some before and after pics....

That is hilarious, the rods look like real small exhaust stacks. The bridge is one of a kind. I like the spirit.

dont laugh, that boat has Raised and Caught Alot of Fish off OCMD over the years even placing 2nd in the WMO twice wth a White and once wth that Wahoo in the second pic above

this boat proves you could fish from everything with a hull and engines, this would actually be a good thread

Proves again that it ain't the arrow..it's the indian.Pretty work to your brother!

Winning the WMO in that rig would re-define the word special. Gotta love it!

I used to have a 29' scarab sport that I loved, similar design in the hulls (sport boat)but with a small Ttop. I know of a regular 38' scarab with I/Os that needs lots of TLC that I can get on the cheap w/trailer. I have thought of turning it into an express style fisher. How does that beast handle with the tower? With that narrow beam and deadrise that things got to to rock and roll pretty bad doesnt it?

I would say it would.One of my boats is a Baja cc with a 24 drg vee at the transom and without any tower that dam thing rocks like hell in a beam sea.Good thing is,its nice to run at 55 mph when seas let you.

I know guys with dedicated Sport Fish boats worth lotsa $$$$$ that havent caught a big wahoo and a 72lb white? My kind of guys. I am in my 3rd season of renovating my 233 1960s formula and its always got fish blood or teak dust on the deck along with fiberglass dust too.
