Help identifying this boats age please!!!

[scuba_redneck]

Hey guys (and gals). I am in need of some assistance. Does anyone have any idea about what year this boat was made? I cannot find any numbers on it and would like to know an age on it. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hey Scuba, sometimes you can get a general idea from how many knees there are at the stern. That small covered bow is unusual for a Starcraft in my experience. Post more pics. Just a stone's throw from you in Oxford.

With the full lapstrake, most likely mid-1960's.

I flipped through my '65 catalog, it looks very much like a Marlin.

Hey Chieftain, if you have a full catalog of 1965 we sure could use it on the SC brochure's site. All we have now are a few ads from that year. Thanks.

I posted the link in the thread a month ago to the '65 and another catalog and PMed HA but he has not added them... look at the last page in that thread

Hey guys, sorry its been awhile since I have been back to this end of Iboats, I have been living on the johnson and evinrude side of the forum trying to get my engines up and running. bananaboater, what do you mean knees at the stern? Do you mean transom supports? If you mean transom supports there are two. The boat has 3 wooden benches in it and as y'all have already noted the covered bow. When we registered it the state went off the previous registration and called it a 1960, but I have yet to find another starcraft like it in any old catalogs from 1960. Ill post more pics as soon as I get them.
