I always liked the lines of the Scorpion, similar to the V-20 but I think the Scorpion looks tougher.

i like it too, like the v's also, hearing how these boats handle i am really getting anxious to get it in the water but got to remain kind of patient till i am done.... i am moving "up" from a 1973 16" trihull so it should be able to handle the chesapeake a little better anyway
