So how do you like the Glad Kid? How does it compare to your past boats? is there anything you DONT like about it? Oh....and how fukin fAST IS IT???????

Love it. Comfortable to drive. Handles awesome. Nimble. Best built boat ive had soo far. Only thing I gont like is the position of the rear cleats and I feel it needs 1 more pair between the middle and front cleats.

Needs prop work. Wayyy over reving. Ive had it 98 at 5800. It had more but backed out because I dont like spinning them kind of rpms. Going to refresh the motors this winter. Go through the port drive. Do a few things and then put props on it it should have. Its going to be hard to let this one go.

I'm sorry but I just moved and can't put my finger on my old 2004 800 Zul Glad file with the prop specs - it also had 6 blade Herings. It may have been sent to the shredder, if I come across it I'll post up.

You have any idea what was different from the 700 zuls to the 800s? Going to refresh them this winter. Debating bumping them up a tad

Gone for 3 years and you come back with a boat that has no cabin, seats 5 and has staggered 700 Zul's?

THAT IS HOW YOU DO IT!!! Congrats. I love the Gladiators and that thing looks mint.

The first Glad I owned was originally OSG's and had 800 Zul's with the Bravo ITS drives - never had an issues with the drives running the Herring 6 blades. MY current boat has the 700 Merc's with stage 3 upgrades and the NXT drives - no comparison. The big wheels make a huge difference in the top end. I haven't come close to ringing it out but Phil has been around 120 with it...
