    Blaw.

    Went out today and couldn't idle again AT ALL! Brought it home, did a compression test; 110-125-125-125. Plugs were black as hell and wet, so I cleaned them up, and boom, idle again BUT.... WTH is the high pitched chirping sound when throttling?

    Has anyone seen this before? AR230 - 2005

    The guy selling me the boat said that it was a manufacturer's defect but I kinda doubt that.....He said that it just seemed too tight in there and it busted through but again that seems unlikely...any help would be awesome! Thanks! ( See attached pic)

    Has anyone ever changed the wear ring in a Glastron 187 gts yet. I was wondering if it was complicated. I read if you lose a bit of power it can be the wear ring. My boat is a 2014

I live only 5 minutes from a boat slip on the Delaware...

    Glastron GT 187 - 150, 200 or 250hp?

    Hey all, I am in the market for a new, bigger jet boat. I have it (somewhat) narrowed down to the 2015 Glastron GT187. Right now I have the option of either the 150hp rotax or the HO 250hp rotax. There's a considerable price jump between the two boats, but price is not the main factor here...
