78' starcraft ss restoration

By the way your interior work is sick. I just checked the stern seating and platform out on your thread. Very nice man it looks like it should be on a showroom floor! keep up the good work.

Thanks. I'm working on my bow insert casting platform right now and should have it in tomorrow.

I could still get just about every nut bolt and screw for even my '73 Johnson so yeah, parts support for OMCs rocks.

One thing about the 16footer is there is not a lot of storage space.

So when you gettin' your 18'?

I will say that in comparison to my 16' Jupiter, the 18' SS is bigger in every dimension. It's wider, deeper, and of course longer. Yet still fit in my garage with only like an inch to spare. It's an awesome hull and a heck of an upgrade. Got 2-foot-itis yet?

HAHA ive got an excuse for not spending money on a bigger boat, I think my tow vehicle would blow up if i got anything bigger! Maybe im just trying to convince myself

Thanks man! Yea if I were to repaint it I'd probably spray it with a 2 part paint. Yea I was hoping to get out on the lake this weekend but thunderstorms all weekend anyway this is the time to learn everything about your boat and to enjoy customizing it to your needs Take your time and it will alll be worth it when you splash it!
