The steering wheel is tilt-adjustable and comfortably designed. Beyond that, Glastron offers the ability to upgrade convenience and aesthetics -- the side windshield wings, bow seating filler cushions (turns the area into a large sun pad), pull-up cleats, stainless steel upgrades to the guardrails, cup holders, and speaker covers.
These platforms measure 36” long, and together with the large outboard well, which has a flat bottom, there is actually quite a bit of space on the stern for launching watersports. By submitting this form, you acknowledge that you have read and agree with the Stowage is outstanding, with self-draining carpeted lockers forward, a big center locker and a roomy glove box. The aft bench style seating also reveals a self-draining cooler that comes standard. With the boys getting older and being into watersports like kneeboarding, wakeboarding and tubing, we wanted something newer and more up to date. At night, the LED lights create a great ambiance. (102 kg), if there is no gear aboard. This is a family watersports boat, and the design is focused on maximizing that experience in an effort to streamline design toward greater affordability. The boys love how smoothly and easily it pulls them out of the water.

Moreover, of the GTS 180 is the outboard-powered version of the sterndrive-powered GTS 185. was excellent during both our sweeping ‘S’ turns and hard over turns, and she showed no sign of cavitation. For boaters planning on towing wakeboarders or skiers, we recommend going for a 150-hp engine or the Evinrude E-TEC G2 150 H.O. We moved to Governor’s Lake in New Hampshire nine years ago and bought a used Glastron that we liked a lot. The single-prop on the Alpha drive bit well, and we hustled to 30 mph in just 5.5 seconds.

For Ma and Pa cruising around the lake in the evening, the 115-hp options should be adequate. A three-step retractable ladder is housed on the starboard side under the platform. The boat measured 17’10 (5.44 m) in LOA, had a 7’5” (2.26 m) beam, a 20-degree deadrise angle at the transom, and a tested weight of about 2,514 lbs. My extended family has bought boats from MacCallum’s, and their service came highly recommended. Her 20-degree deadrise at the transom cushioned our ride in the light chop we encountered. However, the load carrying capacity is 1,800 lbs. The rubber mat inside the storage will definitely reduce wear and tear to the boat and anything one puts in the locker. Moving through the flip-up windshield to the cockpit is the similarly upholstered bench seating, sitting just aft of the driver’s and companion’s seats. We tested the Glastron GTS 180 with an Evinrude E-TEC G2 150 H.O. The GTS 180 comes equipped for towline attachments for tubes and skis, and Glastron offers a wakeboarding tower as an option. This characterization is correct, and we would add that the GTS model is the top of the line version of the 180 with upgrades and amenities that the GT version does not have as standard.

Also getting a tap from the redesign wand is the Aquaflex upholstery whose striping is reminiscent of the look on a 1966 Ford Shelby Cobra. We suspect that most boaters will want to run the boat at 4000 rpm and a speed of 31.1 mph, and at that speed, there is not much of a penalty as she burns 5.75 gph and gets 5.41 miles per gallon and has a range of 117 statute miles. In between these seats is the in-floor locker storage. The sides of the seatback are curved in to help support passengers in high-G turns. The outboard engine we tested was a 150-hp Evinrude E-TEC G2 with a 25” shaft.

Overview Moreover, of the GTS 180 is the outboard-powered version of the sterndrive-powered GTS 185. Sorry, you need to enable JavaScript to visit this website. We wish it had the same under-gunwale storage as our older model. When I threw down the power lever, the Glastron GT 185 popped a bit of a skyward “wheelie,” but the bow came down quickly in just 2.3 seconds. Glastron’s GTS Series of boats are advertised as having “revved-up” styling, “bold” colors, and “adrenaline-fueled” upgrades over their similar bowrider models.

The Evinrude E-TEC G2 150 H.O., which is effectively 165-hp, is also available for this boat. They worked with us and helped put us in the perfect boat. Copyright © 2020 BoatTEST.com. The hour meter and depth sounder come as optional add-ons. With the understanding that once the fun gets started, one or more guests may be in the water, we found the space a bit tight for the eight-person maximum the GTS 180 is rated to accommodate -- if they are all adults. Glastron offers outboard engines for this boat rated from 90-hp to 150-hp from Evinrude, Mercury, and Yamaha.
We tested the Evinrude E-TEC G2 150 H.O. The Glastron GTS 180 while on the water. has two swim platforms with non-skid mats flanking each side of the outboard motor. The dashboard has readouts for outboard engine warnings, a tachometer, emergency engine shot off, and a speedometer that has fuel readings and voltmeter.
