Hey Tank, thanks for the reminder on the Blue/Silver Glad. Don't know how that on e slipped my mind.

My list of favorites keeps changing and growing. :rolleyes:

Re: Gladiator pics
 

Mavrick10-- Ithink you have the best looking boat out there. :drink: I love that paintjob.

It looks like you got the idea from Mark W's 46 Skater "Double Take".

Re: Gladiator pics
 

We'll do brotha. See you next weekend.



Pudge's last Gladiator did have 775's. Here they are.

Re: Gladiator pics
 

Did he have them re-painted with new flame arrestors before he sold it?

Re: Gladiator pics
 

I posted the wrong pic by accident and changed it. The one's with "775" are the ones in his former Gladiator. The other ones were from the 45 Maximus at the Lauderdale show.


These are from the Maximus. Notice the difference in rigging between the two pictures.

Re: Gladiator pics
 

I thought I saw "Maximus" written on the valve cover. All clear now sir :drink:

Re: Gladiator pics
 

Another pic...
It's on a Myco, not the piece of ch*t under the boat in the pic :D

Re: Gladiator pics
 

Hey Gerrard, good luck with the Gladiator. I know you've been looking at them for a while. Can't wait to see it on the water in Havasu! I was looking for the Powerplay out there last weekend.

Here's a new one of mine
2003 Lip Ship

Re: Gladiator pics
 

I just saw this one in Phil's shop last week ---- having a hard time with the whole, "elephant tusk must be stuck in my engine room" thing. But, like all things, I'm sure I'll be screamin' how cool it is after seeing more of them.

Phil has always been the "Trend Setter". So, who am I to argue. He!l, fountains have beaks and no one seems to mind. :eek:

Re: Gladiator pics
 

That thing is dope. But I agree with Joe, not too sure if I like the Euro air intake. But who am I to question the master! :D

Re: Gladiator pics
 

The Gladiator has got to be the best looking hull on the market, I've always loved em.

Re: Gladiator pics
 

I have heard alot of stories of the spinning out. Is that true?

Re: Gladiator pics
 

Not that I've heard of at all. Heard of more T/S Guns than Gladiators. ANY stepped boat will spin if driven improper. But no, the Glads aren't prone to it.

Re: Gladiator pics
 

I think there has only been 1 pleasure Glad to roll. Like Tank said there have been more T/G than Glads.

Re: Gladiator pics
 

We just picked up this 04' Gladiator w/ 775 Zuls just over a month ago. The boat is crazy fast and not scary at 100. Our last boat was a TS TG w/525's and they are all great rides.

Re: Gladiator pics
 

another pic

Re: Gladiator pics
 

Last one, but the best! Phil put up this number. we are running about 4mph off this.

Re: Gladiator pics
 

:chimp:

Re: Gladiator pics
 

Sweet Gladiator. We are actually looking for a Gladiator with more power. 92mph is nice but we need something that goes 100 and we love the Gladiators. How do you like you Zul's so far??? I believe your old TG is now in CT.

Re: Gladiator pics
 

Thanks!

Yes, our old TS TG is in CT now.

The Zuls are killer! They run super smooth and burn less gas than our 525's did under 3500 RPM. The boat has unbelievable midrange. It is a blast to drive! Our motors are carburated. If you did new ones from zul he has a nice EFI setup that would be very cool.

Re: Gladiator pics
 

here are a couple of new ones of my Gladiator taken two weekends ago.

Re: Gladiator pics
 

Orange Gladiator w/525's in NJ that was at National Marine

Re: Gladiator pics
 

Out of curiosity.... what inspired the switch from a TG to a Glad?

Nice boat. I always loved the graphics on this one!

Joe

Re: Gladiator pics
 

Is that the one Cumberland had for a while?

The orange is HOT!

Re: Gladiator pics
 

Thanks

We always loved the Glads but were actually going to buy a Nortech 36 Supercat but the insurance cost was insane. Through a friend we hooked up with Phil who just got this Glad literally 1 day before we flew down and it was so nice we couldn't pass it up.

I loved the TS Top Gun! The Gladiator is just so comfortable. The boat is a little better balanced with the staggered setup. With the 775's, the boat absolutly rips! It is a little bit of a b*tch around the docks especially without a rubrail but you get used to it. I guess it is a change of pace from the TG.

Re: Gladiator pics
 

I agree we came from a 575 TG and bought a Glad from Phil. Other than around the docks and backing it into a slip (little more tricky) it's sweet. What drives, props and rotation are you running?

Re: Gladiator pics
 

The drives are Bravo XR ITS with Imco upgraded internals.
Six blade Herrings turning in.

Re: Gladiator pics
 

very nice rig.. a gladiator is next fo me.....

Re: Gladiator pics
 

I was thinking a Gladiator would be nice for me too Davey Boy

I like the looks of this one. All white

Re: Gladiator pics
 

Do you have any performance data between running the Herrings and the Merc props?

Re: Gladiator pics
 

No, I have only run it with the Herrings.
