Re: 1990 Glastron Futura 227 SL Rebuild
I can't take credit for that jig. I copied the idea from someone else's restore. It did help with measuring and fitting the stringers and frames.
This boat is old and covered in whiskey dents. The closed bow is impractical and it doesn't ski well at wake board speeds. It has no head and it's tough to throw/pull anchor. But it's unique and it handles like a racer. The lines are similar to the Hammond Challenger which are rare and collectible and considered a%$ hauling machines. Here's the Hammond:http://www.classicglastron.com/82hm-2150.html
I know it's not a Hammond, but it has a similar look.
clock that gig was a great idea and as the guys said your work is excellant. And I can't believe that boat is that old it looks great except the under deck of coarse.(sorry about the spelling)
