Where is the Sterling powered Glad that was in Texas these days? I ran in it a couple times at 108-109.

Maybe time for Cig to re-introduce the Glad with a pair o staggered 1350s??? :bunnydance::daz::lolhit:

THAT would be a raunchy ride!

I think Cig should bring back the Glad, stretch it to 39ft, do alittle bottom work, and put big power in it....

So nobody has put 900's in a Glad yet ?????

The Gladiator is a great boat up to 100, then hold on.

It would need a few more feet and a lot of work to handle big power.

I owned the 750 zul boat ran 110. Very dangerous at that speed I would keep it under 100. Loved the boat just felt like I could die at any time above 100.

what size prop did you run..... putting 555 with blowers hope to get 800 from them

Understood....WOW, and Phil ran one 120+ ?????? Must have been a hairy ride.

The 39 Glad is a great idea, isnt that basically the 399 Skater though?

That was proven to run pretty good with Eddie Young power at high speed.

Ala Bruce Gibson's (RIP) Skater. Very nice piece.

I had a 775 Zul powered Glad and it was Awesome! Mine ran 108 with Bravo props and 104 with 6blade Herings. Handled great and was not scary at all over 100.

I love the idea of a Glad with the 39 bottom!
