I am seriously considering a Gladiator for the next boat. The prices seem to be all over the place. Some of the newer (used) ones are $250K+ and there are some that are in the $140K range here on OSO. I am truely wondering what they are worth, since it takes a special buyer (I'm special ) to buy a boat with little storage, no head and no cabin.

Great question as Im in the market for one myself. Although Im not as special as you are

Seriously Bob? Second boat or the exclusive?

Your even more special after you get one !!!

I think the reason for such a wide range of pricing is there have been alot of little detail changes to make the boats more comfortable and a finished look. Some of the less expensive ones are converted race boats and depending on who did the conversion the interiors may not have as much storage or comfort features. I converted mine and shortly thereafter had it redone again to be more like the new ones and now it has quite a bit of storage. I can carry all my fenders, lines, cooler, jackets for 6 and have room for the girls bags without using any of the huge storage under the bow; last year there was no way.
They are fun boats kind of like a Ferrari on water. Good Luck.

they are also on my list ....

Bang for the buck the OSO Gladiator is the best deal out there. Paint it however you want.

Dead serious, It will be used for special runs and winters in Florida. My wife bought a boat and I dont think I need all the extra comforts anymore that the Tiger offers. Its alot of boat for this lake. If things dont work out exactly like I want them to, I will keep my boat. Im very pleased with it. I also have two other boats that I can run besides my wifes.

Buy my boat.....

No more racing?

I have my eye on another boat..... SCL, but may also consider a trade into a nice pleasure boat.
