ID'ing Starcraft year

[dmorano]

Greetings all...
I am the new owner of a vintage (circa 1967) Starcraft Boat.
In fact, other than a canoe, this is my first boat.
Unfortunately it is without the HIN identification tag, and the registration does not list a year.
Is there any way to ascertain the year and model by visual clues? I am planning on restoring this to as near as original condition as possible.
I am including a few pictures to attempt to identify the year, model & capacity.
The hull length is 16?2? and the beam is 75?.
My nearest guess in that it is a Jupiter, but ID using internet sources is somewhat confusing (especially for a year determination).

THANKS

:welcome: to the TinSanity. Your Jupiter is between a 65 and 67, I think. Going by the hull color, I pick 1966.

Welcome aboard!!! At the top of the Starcraft page is a thread with almost every year's brochures from Starcraft... really cool to see all the old styles! But I believe GA is spot on

Thanks I have been scanning several sources and came up with the same conclusion.
Was just wanting to nail down something concrete....
Anal I guess...... Doesn't really matter.....
Thing has been painted several times... the last time with a brush that would make a 7 year old proud.
See a darker blue under the windshield glass, So the top color may or may not be correct.
Didn't know if any of the hardware was a giveaway.... but doubted that too....
Any additional insight is appreciated though....

THANKS AGAIN.....
