A 2005 Glaston Fish and Ski. Between pleasure boating, fishing, and pulling the kids around, Ive racked up a bunch of hours. I average 150 hours per year on the water, so the boat has close to 2,000 hours on her. So far I’ve reupholstered all the seats, replaced the carpet twice, steering cables twice (the last time I upgraded and went with hydraulic), and repowered in 2010. I had a Merc. XR6. It was a good runner, but was carburetored, so it really guzzled gas.
I’d like a new boat, but every time I price a new one, I end up deciding that I’m good with what I have!
Went on a couple of build a boat websites and looks like around 50K for a 19 foot / 150 HP fish and ski with options.
Think I’ll just keep on doing what I’m doing. I’m going to get a price from the Fountain of Youth for Boats for redoing the pinstripes and clearcoat.
