I appreciate all the info. looks like the Gladiator is a winner if you aren't concerned with a cabin (I'm not)
Rick OSG .... Beautiful boat!!
Gary... Your TG is awesome also.

It's a great boat! No complaints. Sitting down is not an issue. Left hand throttling is not a factor. If you don't mind the smaller cockpit area and no cabin down below - you'll love the boat. There is nothing sexier than the lines of the Gladiator. If I can help it I will never have another boat with a rub rail. Rub rails look antiquated to me now.

We don't have that problem out west ... all the docks float around the pilons. The dock is always at water level.

What kind of storage does your Gladiator have? Talking to Lipshutz, he said his Gladiators have specialized areas up in the front of the boat to store stuff---as opposed to a non-Lip-ship boat.

Also, if you store stuff up front, does it ever get wet? (water from the bilge area)

Yeah, but the point of an F-2 is NO cabin. You destroy the purpose with a cabin!!! No talk of cabins around here...We don't need no stinkin' cabins!!! :hothead: :D :D.
