    1982 Starcraft Center Console 18' Rebuild

    Here's a pic of the hole thats mid hull, i'm thinking I can drill it out and put a properly sized rivet in it since it isn't to big. If anyone doesn't like that idea please let me know and if there are any better repair options. Also a pic of the corrosion around the knee brace, probably the...

    Haven't had much time this past week to do much to the boat, been working crazy over time with that hurricane that came up the east coast. I did get some work done though.

I got the rest of the interior and foam removed, just have to give it a good cleaning and then I plan on giving it another good power washing on the outside to see if any more rivets pop off and to try and get as much of the flex off then...

    1982 Starcraft Center Console 18' Rebuild

    Just picked this boat up the other day, it's a 1982 star craft center console 18'.

I'm thinking it not...
