I have two question someone might be able to help me with... firstly can anyone remember the name of the boat in miami vice that don johnson cruised around in. Secondly does anyone know how the name "darlek" from Dr Who came about? Both very important questions as you can see!<br /><br />thanks<br /><br />dm

www.Miami-vice.org<br /><br />Trivia, episode reviews, music, forums, and live chat!!! <br /><br />Crocketts speedboat was a Wellcraft Scarab KV 38' with twin 440's. Name ?? I don't see any room for a name on the transom:<br />

<br />The original boat turned up for sale in Germany last year, price was $85,000 (US).<br />http://www.autosalon-singen.de/Katalogfahrzeug_RecordView_Det ailAll.cfm?fahrzeugID=09999_0001_00_00&languageID=GB<br /><br />He used a Chris Craft Stinger in the pilot episode.<br /><br />A different Scarab was used in 1985 and 1986.<br /><br />His sailboat (house) was an Endeavour 42 named St. Vitus' Dance.
