Finally bought a boat to take on some bigger water
 

I found this boat locally and decided to get it. You would never guess what year it is by looking at it. It is a '78. It's a Glastron Carlson CV-27. It has twin 350's with alpha drives. I don't know much about how it rides or handles since I haven't had a chance to put it in the water. It will have to wait until next season since I just winterized it. It only has 300 hours on it and seems to be a real survivor.

Looks to ge in great condition! Good luck with her.

A very rare find,Art Carlson was way ahead of his time with this model.We sold a few new ones back in the day,one of my favorite boats of all time.It was actually sort of copied after the larger Riva 2000.Congrats on finding this nice example of a real classic.

Thanks. I've always been a fan of the Art Carlson era of Glastrons so when this came up for sale I knew what it was. I've never owned a boat anywhere near this big though so it is going to take some getting used to.

it looks in great shape for a 78'....new boat and just winterized it.....its going to be a long winter for you....:lolhit:

Those Were Nice Handling Boats,yours Looks Like It Was Well Cared For,enjoy It

Congrat's!

The boat looks like new and I'm sure you will enjoy many hours of boating with it.

Those are some really unique body lines, never seen anything like it. Pretty :)

Congratz! Looks sharp! My 1st boat was a 16'7" Glastron Carlson w a 115 Rude out back! Fun boat!!

Congrats!!!!!!
