The engine hatch on that first Gladiator is seriously disturbing. It looks like it could get the owner on the sex offenders list...

What gets me is that somebody actually requested this paint job Nice boat but I'd have to deduct 20k right from the start for paint/interior work.

Lets trade for a season...I know you have the itch for cat.

The paint job belongs on the side of a full size van, with round porthole windows and shag carpet.

But, I still think you would have a hard time selling the van!

You can't say this one is ugly, it's been for sale for a LONG time, maybe it's an indication of the TRUE value of these boats.
How about the Fire and Ice Outerlimits or several other OL,s that have been for sale for years? Are they overvalued as well? Don,t forget, there are NOT alot of people who will plunk down serious cake for a boat you cannot sleep on or $hit on.The Gladiator, like the OL appeals to a very small crowd. It is alot easier to buy one of these boats than to sell one.

I'm in the Christmas spirit. If you have any interest, I'll make someone a heck of a deal and even throw in a big red bow so you can park it under the tree for Christmas morning!

Regarding staggered vs. non-staggered, I'll put this boat up against any staggered Gladiator w/ similar power. The extra room in the cockpit is nice for cooler storage, something a staggered version doesn't have.

If they are not selling than they are overvalued as far as selling price goes. Its price (value) is set by the buyer (market) not the seller.
