    1966 Starcraft Holiday Interior Work

    XPS dissolves, which is why I covered much of mine at the stern with HDPE (gasoline proof) bags.

    I have returned... with a Starcraft this time!

    We resolved the mounting clearance issues yesterday, then tested the tach prior to final installation. Hooked up the harness from the throttle controller and attached the wires as follows: From Harness Purple 12vdc to red and blue tach wires. Red for B+ and blue for lighting. Black ground...

    I have returned... with a Starcraft this time!

    We got the steering wheel off yesterday. I bought a large, heavy, Grade 8 nut and put it on the steering wheel shaft. The boy pulled on the wheel and I whanged on the nut once and the wheel immediately popped off. :D After that, we measured everything to make sure that the tach would have...

    22' Islander rebuild

    That's exactly what I used. Great stuff. Very tough and super easy to touch up. I also added a little Rustoleum Anti-Skid additive to give it a bit more traction. (y) 😎

    Tackle boxes

    I still keep an old Daiwa take-down rod with its storage box in my truck. I've had that thing almost 40 years and it's caught a ton of fish. It's been broken and repaired and broken again, but is still usable after all these years. I don't use my truck very much anymore. I suppose I should...

    I have returned... with a Starcraft this time!

    It's been a beautiful, sunny day here. Blue skies, no wind and 75 degrees with low humidity. ☀️ 😎 So the boy and I went out to the garage to do a couple small things with the KF. Got those done and started to continue, but ended up getting stuck. The idea was to just test fit the tach...

    I need computer help...seriously!

    1983 starcraft ss180 restore

    My 16' Kingfisher rolls a fair bit when I'm moving around. It's not like a boat with a flatter, more square bottom.

    Tackle boxes

    Well, the weather turned nice today and I did get out to the garage and started organizing the new Ugly Stik tackle bag this afternoon. I have to say that I like it a lot! I believe that it's actually lighter when full than the old box is while empty! :LOL: I got most everything out of the...
