Out of curiosity.... what inspired the switch from a TG to a Glad?
Nice boat. I always loved the graphics on this one!

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?
