Scarab (boat)

Wellcraft Scarab Sport

Scarab is a brand of high performance power boats formerly owned by Wellcraft and currently by Rec Boat Holdings.[1] Wellcraft still makes a line of fishing boats which are currently known as Scarab Offshore.[1][2]

Scarab boats were popularly featured in the 1980s TV series Miami Vice. As of the second season of the series the main character Sonny Crockett piloted a Wellcraft 38 Scarab KV.[3] In the later episodes of the TV show Baywatch the lifeguards also use Scarabs.
