    Glastron Oil Change Kit For Glastron 187 GTS

    Might try searching for a shock tube for the rope. I haven't tried one yet or towed any tubers but haven't had any issue with ski ropes and skiing or hydro slide board

    Gelcoat missing!

    Doesn't look normal to me, out of town right now, but I'll definitely check mine when I get back in a week or so. I'll be taking it to the dealer for an oil change too

    Day on water with Glastron GT 187

    CE Smith 60" I found some foam sleeves with a red nylon fabric to go around the pvc, looked really good for a while but the fabric has already faded a little bit so I may take them off and dye them again someday.

    Courtesy light

    There is one in the middle on the helm side and on each of the sides in the back behind the panels that hang down, I think I have a picture I'll post when I get to work.

    Possible GT207

    Tower has a big knob on each side of tower, unscrew and push tower forward, it's weighed/tensioned enough not to fall. Fit and finish has been fine, I found a couple screws I needed to tighten, wasn't a big deal, I also drilled a tiny hole in front cup holders to drain water. I looked at a 2017...

    Possible GT207

    For me the price was just right and i liked the layout and materials used. This was my first boat and so far the 250 has had plenty of power for my needs. As for upgrades, i got a tandem axle trailer from the dealer & put guide posts on, GTS package for sure, I went with the audio upgrade with...

    Day on water with Glastron GT 187

    Awesome to hear, sounds like you had fun, i also walked mine on the second time out or so, it was pretty windy and choppy that day. If you get some trailer guide posts, loading/unloading gets super easy. Did you take it out on the ocean or just in a lake?

    New owner 2014 Glastron GT 187

    Highly suggest getting some trailer boat guides added to the trailer before hitting the water the first time, makes loading and unloading a breeze.

    2014 GT 187

    How many hours are on the engine? I can dig around for a chart or something later but, there is a engine oil change at 25 hours, a service indication should show up so it will have to go to a dealer to get cleared.

    Glastron GTS 187 Questions

    I got the 207 also, the little extra room is nice, the lake i go to is also pretty choppy, it handles it pretty well but i still plan on putting trim tabs on sometime later which will help smooth the ride out even more. I wasn't able to do to much slalom skiing this year so can't report to much...

    GTS 207 New Owner

    I'm still trying to find the best way myself, what I've found is if you get most of it sitting on the tower, then you can get the cover underneath it and over it and start zipping it up. that being said, last time i was out, i messed up the whole process and it took forever lol. Also once you...

    Fuel type used????

    I'm running shell 93, curious as to others thoughts...my salesman didn't seem to knowledgeable on it. My WRX STi is runs way better with 93 than if I have to use anything less, so my current thinking is if it's boosted with a supercharger or turbo charger, I'm gonna use 93

    GTS 207 New Owner

    Lots of cleaning...lol....Im switching over to Spray Nine 26932 Marine Cleaner, seems to work better than the previous stuff I was using, I also want to add some 303 fabric guard, and/or 303 protectant. I have both and will test to see which ones best. What's even harder for me to clean is the...
