    Rerigging with new E-Tec motor

    I'm rerigging my little Starcraft Capri with a new (to me) Evinrude E-Tec motor. I decided to buy all new controls/cables etc, but I can't find any Evinrude documentation on how to calculate the electrical harness length from the engine to the remote control. Anybody have any ideas?

    Old Starcraft (pre-1972) steering to motor connection question

    I have pre '72 Starcraft (no hull ID) that I've rebuilt, and now I'm trying to connect my motor to the steering cable. The steering cable end looks like the pic I'm sharing. There's nothing wrong with the steering or cable -- both move fluidly, so I don't want to replace the helm. The control...

    Trailering a '69 Evinrude 55

    My boat rebuilding project is getting near the end, and I'm starting to think about putting it in the water. I bought a used motor, which I've rebuilt as well. I remember when I had non-tilt motors in the past that there was a bracket to keep the motor from bouncing when driving on the...

    Newbie restoring '74 Starcraft Capri 15'

    Yea, another one. I bought this cheap, and I know why now. I have to replace all the wood in the boat, including the small pieces that rim the hull (to screw the top to the hull). Anyway, here are my questions: I've done some looking at the forums for recommendations for the weight of the...
