Glastron Gt 160 Speedboat With Mercury 1500 150 Hp Tower Of Power Outboard

Glastron GT 160 previously sold on here pre-pandemic but the buyer was trying to ship abroad and couldn’t, so back up for sale.This is the same year and colour scheme as the one used in James Bond Live and Let Die, but that one was a GT 150. A well loved and well used boat, it looks great but is not pristine by any means, I’ve tried to show damage in the pictures but viewing is recommended. The floor has been replaced, the stringers reinforced and braced to the transom to support. A stainless plate is mounted on the transom to spread the load over the braces, we did this to add strength due to the high power of the outboard.The seats have been reupholstered in keeping with the original style and we have the old upholstery if you want to use it as templates.The gearbox has been serviced recently and not used since.Both the boat and the engine are from the 70’s, both are in great condition for the age but have been used well and will need looking after to maintain them.The gearbox and lower leg were replaced with a new OEM unit 8 years ago.There is no hydraulic trim with the engine, it came with a defective system when I bought it so I removed it and never got round to replacing it as we never really needed it. The trailer is thought to be original, I’ve added mud flaps and a jockey wheel since the photos but the tyres are pretty old, I would think about replacing them before trailering a significant distance.Our round trip to the lake is
