Carlson Contender 1500 Shorty

[PIP]

i was the first one to view this on youtube. if this movie doesn't make you want to go out and buy a vintage "70"s craft" with a tower of power, then you aren't alive.

awesome video. loved it. i turned it up loud and my insurance office sounded like al stokers dyno room.

I had one of these in 1968 with a white 85 Merc. I use to take it to school. It definately was a calm water boat. Lots of fun at 14 years old!

I have owned 2 of these in my life time one with a 1100 one with a 1350
I always thought the seats were bitchen fiberglas centers with ulpolstery over top space age looking stuff in there day Go Art Carlson I think he was a man way ahead of his time think of what he did and the designs he put forward pretty inovated for the time Some people at Glastron thought the same way as I did and the rest is history

Thanks for the complements. The boat really moves out. Someday, it may get painted.
