Thanks Jason. She's come a long way.

Solid motor mounts are in the works. Finally shamed Weiler into making me a set. (He said he would a long time ago but never did.)

New latches for the cowl are comin too. (Ordered the wrong friggin size last time. Duh.)

After that is to get the cone/lwp welded on and blended in. Oughta be able to raise the motor least a couple inches higher once that's done.

Add a lil taller prop and we should see low 70's. WooHoo!!

Stay tuned.

Current plan is to mimic the 88 special badges. But add the word "extra". (Between 88 and Special ...)

And see if any of the dumbasses pick up on it.

While you're struggling to retain control. All that day to day crap don't matter much. 'Course it comes flowing back in right afterward. But for a few brief seconds, at least, you're truly free ...

Nah that wouldn't be right. This is a Glastron/Carlson forum. 'Preciate it anyway ...

Stay tuned. Got a Glastron, and a Carlson next in line.

      Looks great Doug, good to see someone is out on the water.  How does the 16 perform with that rude HO?   You need to borrow a GoPro and shoot some footage of your speed runs.

I ran 70.8 first time I drove it. With Ron AND all his chit onboard. And I think that should count ...
