Glastron

1972 Glastron Carlson CV-16. Fully restored in 2013 and then used three times after restoration. Always stored inside and always used in lake water only. I am in my sixties and had the work done by professionals. Motivation to sell is our age, too hard to get ourselves in and out of the water now. Boat is probably one of the best examples of a 72 CV-16 in the country. Details are as follows:2013 115HP Mercruiser four stroke motor with stainless steel prop. Documented 19.6 total hours on hour meter. See pictures.New carpeting exactly like originalNew burlwood contact vinyl, is exact match of original on seat frames, side pockets and dashAll new gauges that match and light up blue, speedometer, tach, fuel, battery charge, power trim and tilt and hour meterNew horn under the bow and not stuck on top like some tacky ones I have seenNew custom built windshield, slightly tintedOriginal seat vinyl, one small split, impossible to match exact color and pattern used from factory, they do not make it.

I am second owner since 2004Clear title to both boat and trailerNot financially motivated to sell so please do not try and lowball. I have over 20K invested but will sell for 14K. A 2020 115 HP Merc basically sells for that. Please do not waste my time or yours if not able to afford the 14K. This boat needs nothing. It was last used on Lake Cumberland in Kentucky during the summer of 2019. If you are a fan of the early Carlsons, this is the boat for you.
