Scarab 255 ID: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The Scarab 255ID is a 25-foot dual console bow rider sport boat powered by twin 250 horsepower Rotax 4-tech supercharged water jet engines. Designed to carry up to 13 people or a maximum of 2,100 pounds, this jet boat stands out for its multi-use versatility and safety features. Unlike the Scarab 255 Open-G center console, the 255ID offers a dual console layout with a focus on water sports and family activities. The Rotax engines, derived from BRP's Seadoo personal watercraft technology, are among the most powerful jets in their class and feature a closed-loop cooling system with ultra-low emissions, making the boat suitable for use worldwide.
Power and Performance
Powered by twin Rotax 250-horsepower supercharged 3-cylinder 4-stroke engines, the Scarab 255ID delivers impressive acceleration and top-end speed. The boat weighs approximately 4,104 pounds during testing, including fuel, water, and gear. It reached a top speed of 54.5 miles per hour at 7,950 RPM, with best economic cruising at 21.5 miles per hour consuming 4.5 gallons per hour, yielding a range of 241 statute miles. The boat planes rapidly, achieving planing in under two seconds, 20 mph in 2.8 seconds, and 30 mph in 4.2 seconds. The water jet propulsion system enhances safety by eliminating propellers and allows for a shallow draft of just 15 inches, ideal for skinny water. The jet nozzles are steerable, providing exceptional maneuverability, and the digital bucket control enables precise neutral positioning without creep. The propulsion system also features intelligent neutral and reverse modes, recognized by an NMMA Innovation Award.
Helm and Controls
The helm is equipped with a three-spoke tilt steering wheel and a 12-inch touchscreen digital display that integrates engine diagnostics, GPS, and chart plotting. The helm console includes a wrap-around glass windshield with a 22-inch wide center opening between the dual consoles. Controls are simplified with a single digital throttle and shift lever managing both engines, easing operation for beginners. Multiple cruise modes—dock, eco, ski, and standard cruise—allow the operator to optimize performance for various activities. The helm seat is ergonomically designed with adjustable sliding, swiveling, and a flip-up bolster, complemented by a padded armrest and ventilation. The companion seat mirrors these features and includes charging ports, audio input, and speaker controls.
Interior Living Spaces and Amenities
The dual consoles house a head compartment accessible through the companion console, featuring an optional Dometic Porta Potty, vanity sink, and lighting. The head compartment offers 46 inches of overhead clearance and 29 inches of seated height. Storage is ample, with dedicated spaces for a 36-quart cooler, table and bracket, and cargo nets. The cockpit is spacious, benefiting from the low-profile jet drives that allow seating atop the engines, unlike stern drives which reduce usable space. The aft cockpit includes forward-facing seats with a filler cushion to form a bench, as well as aft-facing bucket seats with fold-out leg supports that convert into chaise lounges. Storage compartments beneath seats accommodate ballast bladders for wakeboarding. The cockpit is outfitted with cup holders, padded bolsters, speakers, and optional marine mat decking for comfort and style.
Exterior Design and Deck Features
The swim platform is equipped with a gray mat option for traction and comfort, a tow ring, stereo controls, speakers, water fill, and a pull-out showerhead. A collapsible four-step reboarding ladder extends 41 inches below the waterline, one of the deepest measured for sport boats, and includes grab handles integrated into the transom. Large indexed storage compartments span the aft swim platform, and freshwater engine exhaust flush is located on the transom. The arch supports a Bimini top with 79 inches of overhead clearance and includes wakeboard and ski racks, as well as speakers. The bow area features a squared flare with wraparound seating and bolsters, cup holders, grab handles, and storage compartments. The anchor locker is accessed via a hatch with a side-opening preventer strap and houses a bow ladder and Danforth-style anchor.
Water Sports and Safety Features
The Scarab 255ID is well-suited for water sports such as wakeboarding and wakesurfing, benefiting from the jet propulsion system that allows safe wakesurfing without the hazards associated with propellers. The boat includes a wake-blast ballast system with fat-sack ballast bladders stored beneath the seats to enhance wake formation. The shallow draft and maneuverability of the jet drives facilitate easy docking and close-quarters handling. Safety is further enhanced by the absence of propellers and the boat's NMMA certification, which includes compliance with ABYC standards such as grab handles on seat bases.
Conclusion
The Scarab 255ID offers a compelling combination of powerful jet propulsion, rapid acceleration, and versatile design tailored for family and water sports enthusiasts. Its shallow draft, advanced digital controls, and spacious cockpit maximize usability and safety, while the well-appointed helm and interior amenities provide comfort and convenience. The boat’s innovative propulsion system and thoughtful layout make it a standout option for those seeking a multi-functional sport boat capable of delivering thrilling performance and enjoyable recreational experiences.
