Glastron Carlson 82MPH   /   Nepean, ON   /   $35,000

https://www.kijiji.ca/v-powerboat-motorboat/ottawa/glastron-carlson-82mph/1692853917

Glastron Carlson produced in limited numbers to compete with Baja boats. Originally a 502 mpi engine that was fully rebuilt with top of the line parts. Its now a blueprint 509ci with 580HP and only 80 hours since the rebuild. The hull is all fiberglass no wood and it has 270 original hours. Top speed is 82mph.
The cost of the build is as follows:
-509ci forged roller motor 580hp $15k
-Stainless Marine exhaust $6k
-Bravo XZ outdrive $16k
-Mercury Racing 280 K plane trim tabs $6k
-Imco hydraulic steering $5k
-Custom made Spinelli Bros prop $3k
-3000 Rms 5 channel kicker sound system with JL W6 subwoofer $3k
Comes with the original Glastron trailer and a custom canvas travel cover.
The boat was built by the owner of Autohebdo after he sold the company to Autotrader. No expenses spared in the build. A true rocketship.
There is more money invested in the boat than my asking price and im in no rush to sell so the price is firm please.

1978 CVX16 Deluxe Glastron-Carlson
We are the second owner, bought in 2003.
About to be retired and life is slowing down (hopefully) Time to look into a pontoon boat   We are located just outside of Nashville, TN.
Includes motor, trailer, snap on cover for transporting, ski pole, skis too if you want them.  (Plus....it has the ORIGINAL GROOVY ORANGE SHAG CARPET, lol)  First owner had the hull repainted and got rid of the yellow.
I will relay any questions to my husband, he is not on FB, and get back to you. If interested, you may DM me with an offer, will limit it to Glastron groups until the end of May, then put a sign on it and list it locally.

Well it's been a busy few weeks, but I've finally made some more progress. Lately it has been very windy here in southwest Michigan, most days have been 10mph and up. About a week ago I tried to attempt painting the cap with barrier coat, however the wind ripped off all my masking before I could even break out the spray gun! I suppose that was sign it was to windy to paint...so I waited until the wind died down which turned out to be this past weekend. I was able to re-mask the hull and deck in order to spray the barrier coat. Also took the time to get some of my other boats out of winter storage.

Hoping to get started on sanding the barrier coat tomorrow, the awlgrip 545 finish primer requires a 180grit scratch. Once the sanding is done, I can spray the finish primer, sand to 320grit, and then we'll be ready for topcoat! Won't be able to use my fathers shop to paint this time as his sea ray is in there still, so I've been thinking about getting one of these inflatable spray booths: https://www.vevor.com/inflatable-paint-booth-c_10313/vevor-inflatable-paint-booth-23x13x8-5ft-inflatable-spray-booth-high-powerful-480w-750w-blowers-spray-booth-tent-car-paint-tent-air-filter-system-for-car-parking-tent-workstation-motorcycle-garage-p_010693190050

They seem to be pretty positively reviewed online.

@Fatlenny, @Hyperacme thanks for the comments guys! Yeah, I found the protectaclear stuff when I was doing the windshield frame. I can't yet comment for myself on it's durability, but this article is what convinced me to try it: https://blog.shinium.co.uk/2014/04/everbrite-protectaclear-metal-finishing.html
I think a polished/brushed jet drive would be really cool!

Anyways, that's all for now.
