A fried has just bought a tri hull style Glastron. Its 18ft with a 6 cylinder engine. Anyone rode one of these or similar? I guess with a bit of extra weight and a tower it should be ok. Any opinions?

YES, I RODE BEHIND ONE OF THESE FOR YEARS. if you put a stabilizer fin then put weight in the bow the wake will be very doable when you trim the front up. it took me along time to figure this out it is worth a try the stabilizer plate is like 40 bucks.

Thanks, was going to try that. Actually judging by the holes in the leg someone did that before!
Its very rear heavy so will try 300lbs up front and a fin.

500lbs. in the ski locker- 17* prop- tower- trim up to half on smoother water and you're set.
