I am researching a jet boat purchase, so any advice would be appreciated. This would be my first boat. Have any of you ever owned one of these with the jet drive? I like the looks of the old Glastrons. I would consider other makes. Plan on using for mostly sking,lakes, and some delta. I want something with a cuddy cabin that two could sleep in without getting to big.Any input or advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Walt

have i got a deal for you j/k
ive had mine for a year 460, berkley,just doing the floors, check yours out real well before buying especially under the rear seats,ask when fuel tank was checked,other than the floor, it is a good boat in my opinion, i usually cruise with 5 or 6 people and it still goes fairly good for a stock 460 gotta install the diverter for the almighty roostertail and she'll be good to go!
what is the price on the boat
-
Haven't found one locally with a jetdrive. Still looking and researching at this point.There is a very nice one about 50 miles away but it has a I/O. Dealer has it so asking price is high. What did you pay for yours?
Regards,Walt

HEY SPECTRAS
hows it goin down there?hey you dont know what the "sport deluxe' is about on the cv 23? i remember someone askin about the simitar too.

Hooligan, I'm not sure,but think the sport deluxe is a cuddy version,unlike the scimitar which doesn't have one http://free.***boat.net/ubb/confused.gif.I think the fuel tank is in the bow on the scimitar.The scimitar is an oddball [collectible though]boat ,but I could have used those T tops today ,being a rainy one http://free.***boat.net/ubb/eek.gif.I thought you would be in osooyos this long weekend.
