Starcraft ski champ

I have a 14ft starcraft ski champ 1960 according to plate is there not another one out there

Is there a question? Your plate should tell you the year and month it was manufactured but in 1960 I don't think that info was required

StarCraft had a full line of fiberglass boats along with the tin boats they are known for. But many of them have ended up in landfills

I tried to look up the HIN ( https://hindecoder.com/ ) but as I suspected it did not come up with anything. Maybe someone else might have better luck but like you my best guess is 1960. To be honest, I don't know how you could tell how many like boat are out there?

Pictures didn’t load for me before so I thought it was a glass boat. See now it’s tin. Later than ‘60 i think. I have a later version. They call it a Holiday 14 OB after a certain year. Mine is titled as an 1985 with a NYS replacement HIN but I’m pretty sure it’s a 1966

Matt167,I'll try just 1 see if it loads any better

That's a serial # not a HIN

Won't find a factory original hin
The lines in the bow end cap makes it a late 50s early 60s model

Thanks man

I had to look it up quick. 1958-1963 are the listed years of production. Also there is a company making a fitted cover for that model.
