Default Took my New Gladiator out and what a ride

I recently bought a Gladiator with 750 zuls and just got some free time to run the boat. Wow this thing is a amazing. We ran it upp to 105 with more left in it super smooth and stable. I have never rhode in a boat that feels as solid as a Cigarette. I bought Enriques old boat with 92 hours on it looks new and runs great. I think 108 will not be a problem, and with some new props 110 is possible. PS it has the original 29.5 pitch 6 blade herrings and 1.36 gears. Herring say the 5 blades are faster on the boat nad that the new props are faster than the old ones they have.

Congratulations! Gladiators are one of the coolest boats out there and best bang for the buck these days.

Congrats, look forward to the pics.

I thought nobody went cat to V, mind sharing the thought process? Your Thor was awesome, but I can't blame you for moving up to a glad.

PS, update the line under your name now
