I tried you video, but it keep coming up with an error. It may just be the air card in my laptop.....sometimes it does funky stuff with videos. Anyhow just an fyi.

I get the error too. You Tube must be having issues. Great job though. Absolutely awesome work.

The dash looks great. I cant wait to get my boat right side up again.

The video was not working here either, and then all of a sudden it worked.

Dude!

Jay,

My man....

Are you sure we're not connected somehow? Bruthas from otha mothas?

The other night I was looking at your interior, and I thought to myself, if it was my boat I'd paint the flippin wood-grain dash bezel and the glove box bezel black. Then you make the killer side panels with black vinyl, and PAINT THE EXACT PARTS I WAS THINKING BLACK? WTF?

You rule dude! That looks so cool!

Just a tip... Any of the sanding dust left in the carpet, is easily removed with air compressor....

Great video! I love going to the fabric store for stuff like that.....I actually had a little lady ask me if I was in the right place one time in Hancock's!

Awesome work on the interior. At first I was a little butt-hurt that everyone is further along than me, but then I realized I am getting my inspiration for interior design from you guys so I guess it works out!

Fixed:

You guys made me laugh the morning. Thanks.


Keith, You are doing TONS more than what I am doing, and that is the only reason I am farther ahead.

Just wait until you see what I am doing to restore all of my emblems.

Off to work I go.

My emblems are going in the trash. Even if I wanted to restore them it would be very hard. When people ask me what kind of boat I have the response will be "it is a poor man's skiboat"

Your Glastron on the other hand is worth showing off as a glastron. Now if I had a 60's saberflite....yeah that would be a restore...*DROOL*

LOL Keith... PMSB!!!!!

This boat is really close to the one my Papaw (God rest his soul) had when I was growing up. I was taught that Glastrons were quality and worth saving. When I am on the lake people break their necks to look at the boat, and I just love that. Even last year when it needed work I spent 15 minutes when I launched, and then I loaded, talking to people about it. I boat the boat purely for sentimental reasons, and I had no idea how much people would like it. Now I know why I loved Papaw's boat so much. I just hope that my kids have as fond of memories as I did about boating when they grow up.

Man I cannot wait for boating season. I want to take my kids out fishing and tubing SOOOOO bad! This cold weather is really starting to tick me off!!!!

My problem is that some idiot threw my emblems in the trash before I got to it!.. I don't know what to do yet.

friscoboater,
I'm sure that your kids will remember the days that dad spent with them on the water and many others just like you remember your grandfathers.
Mountain_Man,
I have thought about your signature, boating happiness is being covered from the glass grinding dust.

ugly, pretty, whatever I love my boat and I know how you feel about yours, Jay.

Re: 81 Glastron SX-190 Transom and Engine- PICS Galore Update 11-8

Keith, I dig the hell out of your boat, and that is why I did not want you to paint over the stripe. Your boat IS classic Glastron.

Got a question guys. I just got my new attwood turbo 3000 blower in the mail. Is that enough to vent the bilge. I mean it really moves the air, but for the price (13.00) am I stupid not to use two?

Where did you get the blower from?
