Any ideas about this boat?

Has anyone ever seen or have any information about this type of boat? Its a Glastron 21 ft camper from the mid 70's. My brother in law bought it to rebuild.

This looks like a similar boat on ebay. If you scroll towards the bottom of the page there is a photo of the door area and an interior shot. Good luck with the project.

Glastron was one of the earliest fiberglas boat builders and I believe there is now some collector interest in old Glastrons. They were a good boat and it should be worthwhile rebuilding if the hull is in basically good shape. I want to think that Glastron is still around , but am not sure. Good luck with it.

Yes Glastron is still around and making a bit of a comeback trying to get market dominace they once enjoyed. I think you will find that old boat will be in very good shape they once were a high quality mfg and from the look's of it there coming back.

Check out this site, it has original pictures, brochures from Glastron, I'm just guessing but yours does look a lot like the 1974 V-215 Vagabond Cruiser Vagabond Cruiser This link will take you to the years page so you can puruse the other years as well. Glastron built an excellent boat back in those years! Glastron Years

They made at least two other versions of that hull design - a 19"er and a 15 or 17'er. I ran the 19'; for a lot of years. I had to redo the floor and stringers on mine. It was a good boat for a cathedral hull though it did pound in rough water.
