14' Fabuglas (I think) its the company Glastron before it became Glastron. I don't know what year it was, but I think it was made about the same time as the Titanic. I have a 17.5' Caravelle right now that I'm trading in on a 1989 Python Vector 24' that has all new interior and a rebuilt engine (440 hp). I'm new to Performance Boating. Any last minute advise?

my first boat was a brand new 91 rinker206 captiva and after I put a 400hp engine in it and thru hull out above the swim deck I knew I needed a different type of boat. next, like alot of others, was a 22 scarab. now I have an I.M.P. viper, and always thinking about going bigger,faster,newer

My first was a 19 foot Tahiti with a 455 Olds and a Berkely Jet. she had an 18 gallon tank that would last about an hour or so.

Mine was a 12' Sears GameFisher with a 6hp Evinrude. Exposed fiberglass made it miserable to ride around in but it was fun. 1973. I was 10.
