    1979 22' Starcraft SuperSport V5 Restoration

    Re: 1979 22' Starcraft SuperSport V5 Restoration Tonight I got the front seating structure out, lots of carpet peeled up, and the rest of the floor out. I did dig some foam out of the front center where it was like 20" deep. I think I have water comming in somewhere around this area. As I...

    1979 22' Starcraft SuperSport V5 Restoration

    Re: 1979 22' Starcraft SuperSport V5 Restoration Had a few hours to work on boat before we had to go to a wedding. I didn't do any foam today. I think I will pick away at that during the week because it's a motivation killer. An hour here and there isn't so bad but I didn't want to spend 4...

    Re: 1979 22' Starcraft SuperSport V5 Restoration Tonight...about 2 hours of foam removal. I had to make a foam saw, this may be the only one in the world... My other tool of choice... Once this all gets all powerwashed it should look pretty clean. I am going to pickup a large shop...

    1979 22' Starcraft SuperSport V5 Restoration

    Re: 1979 22' Starcraft SuperSport V5 Restoration Had a little time to work on the boat tonight. I believe I have factory pour in foam and lots of it. Its seems real dry even though the floor pieces were dripping water as I took them out. I would have to think this boat would float if it was...

    Re: 1979 22' Starcraft SuperSport V5 Restoration HERE WE GO!! We have had the boat out 10 times since buying it and thought I'd better get started working on it to try to be able to use it next year.

    1985 Evinrude 140 spark plug confusion

    I recently bought a 22' Starcraft with 1985 'rude 140 that runs 50:1 pre-mix. Compression is between 130-135 on all four and engine ran very well. Plugs that came in the engine were NGK BUHXW-1. Being it was new to me I got new plugs, Evinrude plug wires, & fuel filter. The first set of...

    1979 22' Starcraft SuperSport V5 Restoration

    I thought I'd start a new thread to get this project going. I plan on starting to take things apart in a few weeks after we go on vacation and I finish a few honey-do's. I did get it into the garage and it's fits better than I thought. There will even be room for the mama-mobile. I...
