Fwiw, my first boat was a Glastron, and the amount of fun I had behind that thing was insane.
Was in 8th grade, and my two brothers and I chipped in all our savings ($500) and bought an old mid 60's v-hull Glastron with 55hp 3-cylinder Johnson. We must have put 1000 MORE hours on that old thing, lol. This was way before wakeboarding came along, we were slaloming fools.
The ignition switch often didn't work, so we had to put jumper cables straight from the battery onto the starter, to crank her up! heheh. Got quite a few jolts doing that, with feet in the water. Lucky it was only 12 volts.
There's something to be said about being 14, and having your own boat.
Ahh the memories. I'll ways have a special place in my heart for Glastron!
