This is my 73 Regatta, 455 Olds, Berkely Pump with A cut impeller. I've actually got two Regatta's (other one is a project) Both are 73's. I actually did see one here in Virginia Beach for sale that was an outboard about a year ago. I have also been unable to find very much info on Regatta Boats.

Hey - new to this forum, and boating in general, lol. We have an opportunity to buy a 1984 Haskell, but are having trouble finding information - ie. specs, etc. on them. Any information you could provide on where to get parts, etc. would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks so much for your time. They are BEAUTIFUL boats.

Hi all, not new to boats, but new to jet boats. I bought a 1978 Glastron Carlson CVX 20 last weekend and it's been in the water at least every other day. Compared to some of the light weight haul a$$ boats I see here, the Carlson seems like a slow heavy tank. I went out yesterday morning by myself and the water was like glass. GPS ---- 57.1, which compared to my 4 cylinder VIP bowrider is moving out.

Question, has anyone ever gotten the "perfomance tuned" impeller from Berkerly? Does it improve holeshot or top end? Not that I'm looking to hit 80 or anything like that, but getting 60-65 would be nice. Right now the 460 has an Edelbrock 750 on it now, but doing the math, a 460 turning 4500 rpm should be happy with about 585 CFM of carb. There's a dude on Craigslist here with a rebuilt marine Holley 650 for $100 I might try out. Plus, that damn Edelbrock will drink 15 gallons in two hours. If the Holley will get it down to 10 gallons in two hours it would be worth it.

I love the Glastron Carslon in that it makes a great family boat for wakeboarding (not from a tower) and pulling tubes. No hot parts for the kids to get burned on, but it's still a really cool jet boat. When the wife gave me the OK to get rid of the VIP for something faster, CVX 20's were all I was looking at.

Mine's got a 20/20 paint job, but still looks cool and tons of thumbs up at the local party cove.
