    Has anyone tried Future Floor Finish

    I am looking to bring a shine back to my little speed boat. I'm not looking for a show-room finish, just something that looks good from 5ft. It's a $1000 boat, I don't want to sink another thousand into the finish if I can put a band aid on it to last me for another couple of years. I have...

    Wizard Products

    Has anyone tried them? I was told by a few boat and auto restorers that the products are great. According to their videos, it is applied different than normal products, by moving the buffer very slowly. Here is a link. http://www.innate.com/Supplies/Wizards/Wizards.htm

    Sunken Glastron GT-150

    Here is what I went out to today! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XX0I1T94ddI Everything is fine, but when it runs now you can't grab the throttle/shifter without getting shocked. It feels like spark plug voltage! Any ideas what to look at? Motor is a 1986 Merc 90hp Thanks guys!

    What's that clunk?

    Just filled up the outboard tank and went out for a "Pleasure cruse" with the wife and kid. Get out on the open water running about 30-35 having a good time, then I hear a "clunk" almost like a pop. Thinking the motor is just a little cold and backfiring (that's what it sounded like) I...

    Will smart tabs work on this boat?

    I have a Glastron GT150, will Smart Tabs work on my transom? It is angled and I am afraid with the 70(ish) degree angle, it would make the 25 degree tabs over a 90 angle or straight down? If you know what I mean? Anybody know if they will work? I don't want to drop 140 bucks to find out they...

    My Glastron GT-150

    A brief history... My dad had a '76 GT-150 when I has a little squirt and I have fond memories of it. Fast forward 25 years, my Dad passed away. Feeling it would make him smile, I bought the closest thing to his boat I could afford/find. This '78...
