    New Journey

    Stung a bit with today’s prices, but also rationalized the use of AB Marine Fir over the ACX Pine. Holding off on templating the casting deck until I know If I’m going to modify it or not. On a side note, an empty motor stand doubles as a handy little sheet goods stand. 👍🏻 Time to make some...

    Beginner beginning a complete restoration - Starcraft 18

    The dash, stairs, side panels, splashwell, etc. all contribute to the structural integrity of the hull. This is part of the reason they are all secured to the deck and such. If you are looking at reconfiguring any of this, you'll want to ensure you find other means to account for this. The...

    1976 22' SUS O/B "Hydration Break"

    I wish they would have messed up my rating with a 150hp...but then again, probably better they didn't :)

    New Journey

    Something prop rated, with trim, and standard BIA bolting pattern. I'd love to find a 90hp or 115hp '84-87 Mercury as I am familiar with all the maintenance on them. My last two motors were both '87 Mercs, so I now know my way around the impellers, fuel pumps, carbs, switchboxes, triggers...

    New Journey

    Not much to update as other projects and kids activities are still on the front burner, but I did get the '82 70hp Mercury sold over the weekend and now have an empty motor stand awaiting it's replacement. I've missed out on two different 115hp due to logistics/distance with them both selling...

    !978 14' Seafarer restoration

    Is that the good stuff, or the "new and improved" subpar non-methylene stuff? I picked up some of both the Jasco and the Citrus stuff to see which one provides better results. Wish I would have hoarded some of the old formula away before they went all safe and green on us.

    Post a pic of your starcraft!

    Beautiful Mariner! I think you just helped me decide the paint color for my rebuild. That white looks so clean.

    This arrived last week as well:) My toy budget is usually a conflicted balance between boats and things that go boom. I keep on thinking what a nice 115hp this could have funded... Custom M700 LH 7RM barreled and assembled by LongRifles Inc. out of SD.

    New Journey

    The MR180 is still a lady in waiting, but getting some more work done around the house for the admiral before I jump back into the obsession...she knows if I don't get things done before I start on the boat, they won't get done until after the boat :) Deck stairs completed, and plumber will be...

    1972 Starcraft Nova

    Here's another 18' Nova. You can see it does not have the additional rivets for the braces you have on yours.

    1972 Starcraft Nova

    Sorry, been unplugged for the past few days and just seeing this now. Yes, the Novas were smooth sided and only available in 1972 and 1973 as best as I can tell, with 15’, 16’, and the 18’ I/O options. Every one I’ve seen is factory black/red stripe in the 15’, yellow/black stripe in the 16’...
