Glastron meet Tree
« on: August 10, 2020, 02:24:54 PM »
Had a scare this morning.  Lots of trees down in Minnetonka, including this big branch that fell on the CVX-16.  After getting the chainsaw out and cutting away the branches we were relieved. The good news, it was hit with the soft top branches and leaves. no apparent damage even the windshield was spared.  Guess its our lucky day!

Thank goodness, bad timing for boat damage.  We have had several storms, including today that brought large branches down and damaged fence.

You are right and the folks on this forum prove it time and again.  Nothing you cannot repair and restore on your Glastron if your set your mind to it, even if its a tree sticking up through the middle, Right!
