So I've been working a different job and putting in a lot of hours and enjoying my 16ft SS. And my second son has been a handful so I've been away from the forum.
Last night I found another project Strarcraft. I think it's a Sunchief but don't know for sure. 20ft closed bow with a Mercuriser...
I am working on getting viynl decals made. There is a demand growing for them. Looking at having them made in white but there are two styles that have been posted. One looks more like stick figures then the other on.
For the size most people want one to fit on a side window, 4"x 4" would be...
I am replacing a damaged lower unit with a used one and I am replacing the impeller. My original impeller plate was damaged so I was going to use the plate that came with the other lower unit. The problem I have is that the plate openings are different sizes and location. Would I still be able...
Went out this weekend and made two small trips to a section of river and a small local lake. Made a few passes around the lake and fished a few places with no luck. Pulled up anchor around 9:30 and made for the launch. Made it about half way and then there was a loud BANG and the motor stopped...
After running on the water for a good amount of time I don't like how low the wheel is. It's a Teraflex unit so I was hoping this would work.

I was hoping to change it while...
I picked up some Tempress 54907 Navistyle Hi-Back Seats and they are very nice but they position you too far forward for my taste. Is there a base that I can mount between the mount and seat base? I tried to search and others have the same issue but I have found a way to solve it.
I have decided to go with Durabak to cover the floor of my SS. Can it be used directly over the wood or should I glass it in before hand? I'm worried about the Durabak not adhearing correctly.
I was rear ended tonight and I am think that my truck is done for. I have been hit 4 times in the last 3 years by drivers not being observant. :confused: No it is not my driving habits just bad drivers are a magnet too me. Anyways no one was hurt but I have some frame damage and the rear door...
I am replacing the floor in my 73' Starcraft SS and I am looking for ideas on a ski locker. Could anyone post pics of some that are home built please. I have looked for some on flea-bay but would like to see my options.
Alright since the weather her is not working very well for boating I figured that I would make a intro to the Strarcraft addiction.
I have been trolling iboats since the beginning of the summer trying to find what boat that I wanted to get. I looked a a few that where within my budget locally...
I picked up a 16' SS from a fellow iboater and I am planning on replacing the floor and was trying to decide what to use to cover it. Most guys use carpet and some have used paint with sand added for traction. I am out checking prices for wood and I am wondering if anyone has ever used Rustolium...
I have a 1980 Spirit 65hp, basically a DT65 and I am replacing the fuel pump diaphragms. It has one inlet and one outlet with a brass fitting on the side, every other one that I have seen has two outlets and no fitting. Does anyone know what the purpose of the fitting is? At first I thought that...
I just picked up a boat with a 65 hp Spirit but can not find what ratio to mix the oil/fuel. Most engines that I have used all had 50:1. Would I be safe using the same ratio?
Thanks
I am working at getting my 1st boat and I have been looking at getting a SS for a few weeks now and have looked at some potential victims. I am expecting to replace a complete floor and some control and engine repairs with the budget that I am working with but should I be weary of this one or...
