"The 46-foot Rider is capable of reaching speeds in excess of 130 mph. A pair of twin-turbocharged, 552-cubic inch 1,350 horsepower Mercury Racing engines powers it."

I remember years ago they had one with two Countach engines in it. It was back when Miami Vice was making Scarab a lot of publicity. God I thought that thing was sweet.

Each one of those engines produced a third of each of those ;)

:eek:


I don’t want the trouble of keeping my boat in the water. I’ll stick to land if that’s OK.
