    1983 Glastron HPV-175

    And now for a question for you all. In the above photos you can see the 2 white plastic thru hulls, one up front and one in the rear. They are technically above the waterline, but they clearly were under water with just 2 people onboard if we both went to the same side. These are live well...

    My 2001 188 - This might be a bumpy ride...

    So I bought my first boat, a nice little 188 that is in fair condition. I looked at many boats prior to buying this Caravelle.
