I wouldn't do any upholstery before doing a thorough inspection of the deck (floor) and the transom. All of which are plywood encased in fiberglass.

I'd suggest you start by reading as many resto threads about fiberglass boats as you can. Few will be found here in the Starcraft Owner's forum. Mostly tin boats. A few glass though.

Lots of glass boat resto's in the resto forum:
Boat Restoration, Building, and Hull Repair





Good luck w/ your project, post up some more pix.............

Welcome aboard! Like jb said, check very carefully for rot in the transom and stringers first... it really sucks to find out after dumping time and momey into it!
