You may have to use a little rubbing compound on that... but it'll be fine.

Sadly, after much consternation. A decision was made to use the sawsall to put her outa her misery. All the Kings horse'n all the King's men couldn't put that boat back together again. RIP Solitaire.

That stinks ... sorry man. I had to let go of an old boat that had been in the family for a number of years ... it's not quite like the death of a family member, but it doesn't feel too far off sometimes.

There is a fairly new forum member, that might want to take this boat off your hands once you are done with the sawz-all.

What did you do to that beautiful Glastron V153? Don't Tell me you tried the GT 150 jump! Don't make me come down there and smack you around! Ahh well! It was the " wrong" color anyway! LOL

Seriously-- Do you intend to get another one?

Sawed purty much all the shattered glass off. Haven't been able to bring myself to tear into the floor or stringers. All 'tuff stuff' composite laminated w/biax. Sigh ...

Probly not another V153. Too many painfull memories. I do have a '81 Carlson C500 metric series that I bought for the freshwater run 140 that was hangin on it. Needs a full resto.

Yo Frank, now don't be silly ... I was tryin' to perform the 'drive the V153 through the piling stunt? Btw yours is the 'wrong' color. Heh heh heh

Yup! That's the way we put it still.

Another is: "What does Venice need the circus for, all the clowns are in city hall ...?"

That's why we call Venice "God's waiting room"
