Go to the main news menu and ask for advice. These are the people that know
everything about Glastrons. I have a 1986 16ft Glastron. Great boats if they
are not abused.

Hi,

I'm thinking of purchasing a '78 Glastron 17foot with a 165hp i/o
merccruiser. I am totally new to boats. This will be my first. The
boat hasn't been used in 3 years. Looks like it's been in california
for most of its life. The interior has seen better days, but mostly
just rips and tears in the vinyl seats. I know the biggest factor is
the engine. What should I look for? Cracks? Where? Also, doubt
these folks will let me 'test drive' considering the low price. Can
you startup the engine out of water?

Any buyers advice, to avoid buyers remorse, is welcome...
Thanks,
