Re: 2010 Starcraft owners Get Together Weekend of June 26th - Lake Anna, VA

Ezmobee,
Here is an idea for an activity, how about a project boat to restore just like on OVERHAULIN' on TV? With all the people that are going to be there, I bet we could bang out a boat in no time. That would be cool....
AND....
I have the perfect boat!!!!

What do you think???

If you are buying the materials I think we can help you out;)

We get to pick the color though:D

Yes, of course, I will pay for all materials. Afterall, it's my boat.

As for picking the color, that would be fine with me. I haven't had my heart set on any combination at all other than thinking restoring to the same period colors but much better shades.

How about everyone picks the colors, even the color of the trailor and motor.

Oh, and its a '67 18ft Holiday in that fine shade of Avacado they used powered by a 1975 115 Johnson.

Maybe next year my "new" 1973 cheiftian will be ready, just got it home and hope to start to resto soon. I'm in Maine so it would be a long drive but hey it sounds like fun. I'm new here at this forrum, and I've been reading alot of your posts and I'm impressed with how helpful all of you are. I'll be asking all kinds of question in the weeks to come, I would appreiccate any and all info. When I figure out how to upload pic I'll show all of you what my wife call my "lost cause"

Re: 2010 Starcraft owners Get Together

I live pretty close to Lake Anna and was thinking about coming up to check out the boats when you have Tinstock. I do not have a Starcraft but I am hoping to purchase an old small V-hull for my next project. In VA we mostly have jon boats and bass boats. The small mil finish tin boats are less available here. Everything I've seen for sale has been painted camo for duck hunting. I was wondering if there will be vendors of parts, small motors, etc. ?
Is anyone bringing a huge trailer loaded with 60's era tin boats for sale (Fantasizing)? Is there going to be a "show" or is it an owners only get together. I promise I've read most of the restoration threads about these boats.

It is for us to gather for community, share our boats and celebrate our efforts. No booths or vendors. Stop by if you want but as of now it is pretty loosely organized so there are no specific events or times for anything.

Free Bird,

You are welcome for a ride in my tinny, but be warned Starcraft Fever is highly contagious and very hard to cure:D

Re: 2010 Starcraft owners Get Together

Just wondering? What do you think of the idea for us to bring leftover stuff from our restorations to share/trade? I know most of us will have completed the work. I have a bunch of bigger pop rivets and an unused can of zinc primer.

Good idea banana...I may have some leftover yellow paint so you can live up to your moniker;)

I have been thinking about getting more Starcraft gear for maybe door prizes or whatever. Some SC logo tee-shirts or maybe floating SC keychains:D

Maybe I'll stop by the SC HQ on the way down and see what I can muster:)

Hey guys
I am not going to make it. I just called the marina and cancelled my reservation, so there is a room up for grabs.

Blame it on the economy.

Maybe next time...
:(

Re: 2010 Starcraft owners Get Together

Hello, everyone, My name is Julius, I have been reading this forums for a couple of years now, and just came across your getting together down here at Lake Anna, Va. So I decided to join so that i could post, I live here at Lake Anna, I own waterfront property here on the Hot side of the lake, also known as the private side, which is seperated by three dikes. Your making a very good choice. This is a very beautiful place to boat, and fish, and to bring your whole family. Theres not very many stores here, mainly mom and pop kind of stores, but we do have some in the planning. Theres plenty of Info on the web also about Lake Anna, Well the reason i,m posting is to say that if I can be of any help give me a shout and I'll do what I can. E-mail me if you like.
