I always liked those as a kid.
Kinda wondered why I haven't seen one show up for sale somewhere.
Cool looking boats."Keep the bottle on the bar Ira, I won't be long".

When I was a kid I had a Glasstron GT150 (that we wrecked like everything else we got our hands on) but I was in love with this boat. It was the James Bond boat. I remember they were very expensive for it's time. I still think it's a cool boat!

The bottoms on the Glastron boats are OK up to about 60 mph, much over that and they chine walk and it can get worse as the speed increases.
Been there.
Probably don't want to add big power unless the bottom is modified. Like the photo attached, which had the same basic bottom with a pad added. It still chine walked... starting about 80.Last edited by Dueclaws; 06-21-2009 at 01:01 PM.
