I am creating this post because there are not many SSV-151’s out there that are documented online. I hope that this can help anyone that wants to restore one or is interested in buying one. I love the boat! There is plenty of room in it, it’s fun to drive, stable and fast. I recommend one of these if you are interested in a boat this size.

I found this 1983 Glastron SSV-151 online but in a Greensheet type ad. The boat was located in Milwaukee, WI. I contacted the owner and made the drive from Illinois to Wisconsin to check out the boat. The original owner was an 83 year old retired CPA that had the boat at his cabin but hadn’t used it in a few years so it was time to sell. The gel coat was in great shape, it had the original vinyl interior and all around looked great. The floor had been replaced and was solid and the motor was solid on the transom. We agreed on a price and it was mine. I couldn’t pick it up until the snow was gone.
