Hey guys!

I live in Finland, and I am sorry my started writing errors.

I bought Glasstream 17v model name of the boat, and I wonder if its the right model for only 17 years? Since Finland is never officially imported into these boats.
And this seems to be the only one in Finland. Machine yamaha 70hp 2-stroke. year of manufacture 1989 boat and motor maybe?!

If someone could tell me the facts about the boat. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Dry weight? sufficient power for 4 people? pluss and minus?

and in this picture

Hello end-o and Welcome aboard!

On the back of your boat, on the transom just below the rub rail there should be a number pressed into the fiberglass. That number is the HIN number and will tell you the manufacturer. There should also be a capacity plate up near the helm that has some information on it as well.

Trailer looks like it doesn't quite fit the boat - make sure your keel is supported well.

That boat will hold 4 people, but it's really designed for 2 to go out fishing in.
