First of all I would like to say thank you to the men and women who take the time to get on this forum and offer advice and wisdom to people like me who desperately need it. That being said I need your help again. I am putting my old Glastron to rest and considering buying a 1988 Thundercraft 170 Runabout with a Mercruiser 3.0 4 cyl. I need a boat that will pull an adult on a tube and the rest is merely putting around or using it as a swimming platform. Would this boat be powerful enough for the tubing, and does anyone know of the quality of Thundercraft boats. I cannot find any info on them. Thanks in advance again.
