Hello - new to this forum, but not new to many other forums (cars, RVs, iboats). My previous boats have been 22' Wellcraft Eclipse, 28' Wellcraft scarab, and 32' double decker pontoon I rigged with a 1975 Merc 1500 Tower of Power.
I am boatless now, but have $ ready for the next boat. I've always liked the retro Glastron, so I am going to buy one.
The search is on!
18'-19'-20' model.
Would love Berkeley jet drive setup.
Outboard would be next preference.
Motor, trailer, interior, cosmetic projects OK. No space for a stringer/transom project.
I live outside Sandusky, OH 10 mins from Lake Erie. I would use the Glastron for near shore water-sports, 4 people typically in boat. The family doesn't like rough water, so this boat will be used in calm conditions.
However, Lake Erie can kick up 1'-3' chop. I will also be presented with 2' passing boat wakes. Anyone with Glastron experience in these water conditions? Concerned about broadside and water over the stern. All the youtube videos I see have Glastrons running on inland lakes with flat water. Must be nice!, just not where I live.
Thanks !!
