sure you dont know how all the empty beer cases got all over the place but id admit that rather than admitting i listen to nickle back, lol...... jk. i have a glastron boat as well, mines not as nice. 1960's fireflite v155. at least you didn't lose it.
@MrMrtiki The auto bilge was faulty. I took it back and they cut me a check for a thousand dollars. Once I cashed the check, I took their name out of the vid info. The check wasn't needed or expected, but it was certainly appreciated.
Between the check from them and the checks from Google ads, I've made about 5 grand on this one vid! Not too bad for a 50 defective bilge pump, eh? Especially considering I paid less than a grand for the boat, motor and trailer. I actually made $ on a boat! lol
Yep def park the boat backwards at the dock if left overnight. I usually am too chicken to let my boat get banged around at the dock all night tho....
@poopdogsays Actually I do have a few videos but I haven't uploaded 'em yet. If I remember, I'll put them up tomorrow night. It's a z-16 conroy which, as I understand, is not a common model (?). It's only got a 65hp johnson so it's limited to about 30-35mph. I was going to get a nice 90 like you have, or maybe a 115 but gas is so freaking expensive!!!!! What's the top speed you get in your setup?
@BigAgitator I have a 19" (that's push not diameter) stainless steel Ballistic prop. Top speed so far was 54 GPS, but the boat chinewalks so bad at anything over 50 It's will scare the shit out of ya! I have been told if a pad were added (flat spot on the bottom of the boat for planing) it should run in the low 60's! I am about to order a set of smart tabs and get rid of the stupid hydrofoil. Too unstable at high speed with it attached, but I love getting up to plane in 10 seconds!
@BigAgitator I can run for about 4-5 hours at a about 35-40 and only burn about 12 gallons. So 25-30 bucks to run around all day.
4 or 5 hours is about all you want to run in this little boat, rough water beats the hell out of your spine. Plus it gets old having every boat on the water trying to race me! As you know, I don't have much power, but the boat only weighs 1,100 pounds with me and 2 full tanks. So the power to weight ratio is pretty good. My 90 is a prop rated hp, 125 at the flywheel
Good news is, I tore the disk player apart and retrieved my Nickleback CD. I replaced the crappy Jensen with an Eclipse 55430 and an Eclipse pa5422 amp. My boat rocks now!
Had the same thing happen to me right before my eyes in a storm. After that i never "park" with my rear end towards where waves will be coming from. It just kicks water right into the boat. Nice boat. I have a glastron i think is a V-156 with three keels.
@poopdogsays Ah. I live so that i can see my boat from the livingroom window. So its not really that big a problem. But ive also invested in a cellphone alarm thingy. I can send an sms to it and check status. And it will also alert me if water levels rise and the bilge fails to kick in. It will even alert me if the battery is running low so that the bilge might not function. Its a great little gadget. You can also rig it to send you a sms if the boats is moving (built in GPS).

Wow! Almost 28,000 views. If anybody comes looking for me, I will be down at the lake, sinking my Checkmate Predictor, and a Nickleback CD!
But seriously dude, I like your boat and I am glad to hear that it survived this.

Thanks.
