Title: Quick pics from the weekend...
Post by: Hot Carl on August 08, 2010, 11:29:05 PM
I scooted around Minnetonka quite a bit this weekend - actually saw a lot of older Glastrons - making me wish even more that I could make the meet in Red Wing. Unfortunately, I have some pretty selfish friends that decided to get married the same weekend...two weddings which I can't miss. Obviously my priorities are way off... ;D

Anyway, it was a gorgeous weekend, the boat ran well and I snapped a couple shots at the dock with my phone...enjoy!

You probably noticed that I desperately need a new hatch cover. Any insight would be greatly apprectiated, as I'm having trouble locating a resource...

Great looking boat!

Check out Edston Plastics on the "Hatches" section of this link.  We have quite an extensive list of venders and hopefully one of them can get you what you need!

Thanks for the compliments and contacts! I'll shoot Scott an email first and go from there. Considering the condition of the REST of the boat, I'm surprised one of the previous owners was willing to just slap on two layers of scotch tape and call it good...

Thanks again guys  :)

I'm fortunate the gel-coat is in such great shape - the 17 inches of wax I've applied don't hurt either...however, they do make putting the boat cover on pretty interesting. The bow is like an ice-rink...
