Like others said I would have thought it to be a very strong seller. I'd love to have one but the first seargant wants a cabin which is pretty much good for nothing but storage here in south Louisiana (or to get out of the afternoon rain showers). I always thought the lack of the rubrail just made it so slick. Sorry to hear it's phasing out.

How about an 07 Glad with Merc 700,s??


P.S. maybe this post is a little premature??

Maybe this will firm up resale for the glads.
Never seem to hold as well as the guns.

i think it sucks.. gladiator is a great looking rig....

I asked about that at the show.

THAT would be a fun boat.

I don't understand how it can be more labor intensive? It's a pretty simple design with no cabin to install or wire? The dash has no elaborate molding like the new stand up boats? Do they have to cut down the hull from a regular TG mold? Even with that how long could that take?

If anything I would think they are less labor intensive but commands a smaller price and thereby lower profit margin.

I've always liked to boats but they needed a bit more freeboard for the rear passengers to make me want to own own one. I still would for the right price however.

I know when my boat was being built, all i heard was how much time they had in sanding on the deck and on the sides to get that sleek look. I think this is where the boat becomes a lot more labor intensive.

That makes sense.

Why not go to a conventional hull and deck joint and rub rail? Can't make that much difference in the look can it?

Oh, well they have ther reasons. It was a nice model.

Bongo, what are the winter mods going to be on the TG? I love your boat but can't sell the old lady on the rear bolster or the 90mph paint. BTW, those are two of the main reasons I like the damn thing so much. I gotta have something just a little different than everyone else. Love the old block lettering on the deck and sides too!
