Will glastron should hire you to be their spokesperson. Your link didnt take me directly to the referenced video,so i ended up watching glastron's on water review first. Accent asisde the glastron guy spent over 3 minutes of a 5 minute video talking about the swim deck where as you were able to cover the entire boat including how big the bow is and how to fold down the tower. Thanks for sharing.

Not impressed, no yet anyways. But I do like the bolt on swim platform - I wish we had that option.

Nice video, Good walk through except when you talk about the reliability of the sea-doo engines :) Joking

I like the closed loop cooling.

One improvement Yamaha can make is the easier walk through from the swim platform to the interior on the 240 series. Not as bad on the 21x and 19x series. Would love a larger swim pad and would like better seat configurations in the back.

Larger bimini please! All this competition will drive improvements!

Great video Will, thank you! I can't wait for people to start buying some other brands and joining this forum. Any ideas on after market products for the Glastron, Scarab, or other makes yet?

We have Thrust Vectors already and will be adding turf soon. We really need to get a feel for what people want so we can create solutions to common requests so time will dictate that.
