1980 Glastron SSV-169 Sprint - Factory Original - Family owned for 35 years

Description

For sale is a very nice factory original 1980 Glastron SSV-169 Sprint. Package includes an original 1980 Glastron custom aluminum trailer and an original Mariner 90hp ELPT outboard. This particular model (the Sprint) was only produced for one year. Due to her light weight, she accelerates quickly and will run 40+ mph with the 3-bladed prop.
This boat has served our family well over the last 35 years, with many precious memories. She has never left us stranded on the water, which is pretty hard to believe!

HISTORY OF THIS CLASSIC GLASTRON: Our family purchased this Glastron in June 1983 as the 2nd owner and we have owned and operated it every summer for the last 35 years! This boat has never sat idle for a season and has been stored inside when not in the water. She has never sat in the water and has been trailered in and out during every use. Because of that, this might be the best condition-wise classic Glastron on the market!

The following description is from the 1980 Glastron brochure:"Let your hair be wind-whipped and your spirits unleashed in the new SSV-169 Sprint. Let this quick-planing SSV hull skim you away to watery hideaways. The surge of outboard power and the deft handling will make you think you're driving a formula race car. And the hot performance of the 16-foot Sprint is matched by her sporty good looks. Her racy smoothness presents a sleek, low profile. The buckets and bench seating, the walk-through tinted windshield, and the open bow make this the roomiest 16 around. So hook up the tow lines and let the skiing begin. Glastron's all-new SSV-169 Sprint. For racing the wind."
CONDITION:Boat is in good mechanical and operating condition for being 38 years old. The only mechanical item that is not operating right now is the tachometer. Gauge is operating but is receiving bad info. The boat was winterized every Fall before storage for the Winters and she is ready for the boating season as she sits. Everything on boat is original from the factory except antenna, Pioneer AM/FM/CD player, speakers, and the boat cover. I have completed some maintenance items recently as you can see below.
SERVICE/MAINTENANCE:- June 2011 - New Goodyear Marathon Tires for Trailer- July 2015 - New battery installed- August 2015 - Installed new engine wiring harness and stator, new water pump assembly, fuel line primer bulb- September 2016 - Installed new power trim pump motor kit
COSMETIC FLAWS as you can see in some of the pictures are listed as follows:- Power antenna was added by us many years back and no longer worked so it has been removed- Tears in upholstery on both bucket seats- Small corner tear in upholstery on port side in the bow seating- Crack in the plexiglass on the port side (approx. 8" in length)- Crack in the plexiglass on the starboard (approx. 2" around screw)- Carpet in ski hold letting loose from left aft sidewall and worn through near back side of cover
I have described this watercraft as honestly and accurately as possible, but as always, inspections are welcomed and encouraged.
