    Great project! It will be fun watching the process. Heck, it may inspire me to go find my Glaspar G3 I long for.

    I grew up on a lake with my uncle owning a Glaspar G3 '68 I believe that was my 2nd choice.

    Almost went in that direction.

    Great fun these boats!
    I have a slightly newer Glastron, customized a bit.
    Motor is a 2.4 Merc, runs 80mph. Could get more with a jack plate etc, but it's fast enough the way it is...

    Nice boat! I will have to get more info on jack plates not sure if using one would help my project. I will check it out though. Thanks
