looks like a very clean boat Jeff. I like the 750's and without blowers I think you would be fine with the bravo's. Not trying to sell you on it, however if you like the boat I wouldn't worry about the drives. I called you two weeks ago and you didn't return my call. I'm really begining to believe you don't love me any more. Give me a call Bro.

Yeah! Give me a break. This boat has probably never run 10 hours without being at derry berry performance and having an engine pulled. Anyone at Texoma has seen this gladiator as the parking lot queen. If you want to baby 700's with xr drives, expect big problems because they are not rated for that power. Ask anyone who has tried to do it without upgrades and they will tell you how expensive it just became. Sales price on a reliable boat is one thing, buying a boat and fixing it every month is quite different.

Ok, time i've said something. Blume's Gladiator is a steal at the price he is asking. He shouldnt even be selling it for this low. Im not even going to try to sell mine of this thread of BS! You are not going to be buying it and fixing it every month. The Gladitor is an awesome boat! All these people saying they're not worth the money, then dont buy one!! Where esle can you get top notch Cigarette for 135K?? No where. That Glad is a steal. I dont know why the Gladiator values have dropped so much but thats just the way things are. If you like a boat buy it. Simple as that. For those of you looking, stop trying to get everything for the basement low price. If you do your going to be boatless/Gladiator less for a long time. Having more time in a Gladitor than anyone that has commented on this thread, to me they are worth every penny. Also you dont really know how to drive the boat if you've rolled one!!! The drives should be fine behind the Sterlings if you run and maintain the boat properly. Also if you know anything about motors the Sterlings are just as easy to fix as a 525 if not easier. They're just a big block chevy. Nothing too special there. If we had the money right now we would buy that boat in a heartbeat. There's my .02!

High Maintenance, so your information is correct. The boat has been on Cedar Creek Lake since September 2007, it was at Derebery last Thursday the 4th and I picked it up on Saturday the 6th and it is back in storage, after being winterized. |
Sounds like a GREAT deal! and im a Fountain guy:evilb:

Personally I think all of this nonsense of making offers in a public forum is disrespectfull to the seller. If you are serious about making an offer, do it privately. If you were in the sellers shoes you wouldn't appreciate it either.
