Ditto on that Bird. You can see the Glastron styling in the hull. Twins is too young to remember the Glastrons of yesterday. Had two of them myself, last was a GT 150, way cool when I was but a young pup. :D

Mine was a '69 GT160. 135 Johnson. 60 mph. Pretty fast for 1976.:cool:

BTW, hows tricks? Your cat fell out of its bag some time ago. News of deceptive trickery spreads like chit from a honey wagon. To be upfront here, I have purchased the test props and Brett is doing up a second set, he claims the number you saw is going up. I love a man with a positive attitude, glad you put me on to him. You keep digging into that bag of tricks.

I have not been deceptive at all. I purchased ALL of my parts back in January! I'll let you know when the boat is done. Time has been the only issue for me. Work, travel and rigging my boat have consumed me for the most part. I'm looking forward to some relaxing weekends soon.

Are you putting the boat in the slip this weekend?

Brett and I are talking as well...He is a great guy with the knowledge to back it up. He is waiting for some data from me. I hope to collect some this weekend and get back to him. Prop tweaking is last on my list of "tricks", I have to get everything else settled first.

And you are welcome! No fair keeping such a great resource a secret.

The rusty orange metalflake GT 150 with a 115 Johnson in a cardboard box. Rebuilt the 115 and added the 135 heads and carbs. Few years later I began my Hydrostream era, now they were a blast. :D

Ok, nuff of this embarassing avatar, POOF !!!


There we go, much better now. 5P I will be sending you a bill for using my pic. I figure you might as well pay me and use it, you can't spend enough to get your own speedo to read that high. Just have your guy get in touch with my guy, they can work out the details.
