Here it is still under wraps. Let the payments begin. Crappy cell phone pics. I'll post proper photos when things thaw out.

Awesome man! What color did you get?

I just put an order in for a GT 205 with XL package, Roswell wakeboard tower, Volvo Penta 4.3L GL, and low profile black windsheild. I also ordered a black bow and **** pit cover with my red colored boat. I wanted to be different and have non-matching canvas to look sportier. How long did it take for yours to come in? I put my order in Feb 15th and they told me 6-8 weeks.

Black w/ XL package. I ordered back in October 2009. It took a couple months, but there was no rush on it. They may have been able to get it in sooner if I had requested. With the 4.3 is was a special order according to the dealership.

That's great to hear cribber. I hope this one turns out to be reliable for a long time.

Getting warmer! I to am new to this forum. Cant wait to get my 07' GXL205 on the water this season. It will be my first full season with this boat I bought last September. We only had it out Labor Day and that was it, but that 5.0 GXi 270hp really purred. The boat only had 14hrs on it. So I cant wait. I bet you are beside yourself all shined up and nowhere to go. At least I had 1 weekend with my baby.

Yes, I'm beside myself chomping at the bit, but no shine yet. It's still at the marina in winter storage mode, just like in the above pictures. I bet that 5.0 jumps right out of the water!

Re: New GT 185

She is pretty peppy. That only weekend we had her out I started to play with the trim a little bit and she smoothed out to 51 mph very nicely, I could probably tweak another 2 or 3 mph out of her on smoother water. It was windy and the water wasn't rough, but it wasn't calm either. But either way that is plenty of power for us, and she jumps out on plane as advertised well under 3 seconds.

That is definitely a sweet looking 205!!!

Re: New GT 185

That is a great looking boat. Do you have any bigger images to post?

GXL205 Deke · Mar 18, 2010

Re: New GT 185

I am not sure how to make a bigger image post. thing asks for a url, they are not on the web. and this forum limits attachment size.

Re: New GT 185

I attached a few pics here. Well guess that didnt work too well. Don't know how you did that up top, but oh well.

Re: New GT 185

I can't remember if I uploaded the images from my computer or if I used my photobucket account. I think I used my photobucket account which is free. Either way, thanks for the bigger pictures. That really is a beauty of a boat. I can't wait until we can get out on the water.
Hey, you should check out this site, http://glastronowners.com/ it's just getting on it's feet again. It was really starting to take off last year then it got hacked. I think it will be a cool site once it get's going.

Well I have the shake down cruise scheduled for April 9th. I'll post my experiences and some pictures barring a rain out or any major disasters!

Re: New GT 185

Awesome, I cannot wait myself for mine to finally come in. Granted the water is still only 40*f but I don't care. I just want it to be in my possession.
