rhino89523 65 Report post Posted May 8, 2018 (edited) Man I just did this last year, think I either added it as a project or tacked onto the completed original project which was the reason I went with the glide. My install was a pain because the motor was way out of alignment....probably half the reason the cutlass went bad. I am happy with the parts that were provided and the Glide folks were awesome. If I enter and win can I donate it to my favorite entrant??? 2005 Avalanche, projects so far since this picture was taken. Glide bearings and seals Flooring home made wake gate Ballast work figuring out how to properly service everything cut me some slack I've only owned it a full season...I'll get some more stuff going. Projects before this picture was taken were a steering cable and pulled the stickers and buffed out the deep scratches.

rhino89523 65 Report post Posted May 15, 2018 Mine had a big Avalanche thing on there kind of tribal like...with scratches through it and pretty deep into the Gel coat...all part of price negotiations. I thought I could live with the scratches, and I could have. I bought the boat in Oregon and live in Nevada so had time to think on the drive home. Bought some rubbing compound on the drive and spot checked it. That night I used the heat gun to pull the stickers and wet sanded the whole side, then started polishing. When the wife came out to see our "new" boat for the first time I had the whole side all white looking from wet sanding and I thought she was going to lose it. The picture I posted was the next morning. It came out really good and I actually prefer it without the stickers. This is actually how the boat looked when I bought it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably looked like my wife every time I start a new project and rip the boat apart. She’s been booking camping plans since last year. We are two weeks away from our trip and the boat is in pieces with me hoping my plan even works. I like yours without stickers. Looks good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
