Anyone ever heard of a Star Outboard? Here's the link:

Nice decals on a CHRYSLER outboard.

Looks like a Starcraft decal minus the "craft".
Definitely a Chrysler though

I wouldn't pay more than
250 for the whole kit and caboodle. Old trihull. Gonna have water logged foam, I know he replaced floor but after all that work why sell? Not to mention that was a junk motor when brand new.

Well now, not sure it was a junk motor. I've had pretty good experiences with Chryslers under whatever label. But this is an OMC forum....

Decals appear to be nicely done, and condition of the boat seems good. I had a 15' Chrysler, and needed work because of water intrusion under the floor -- any of the old hulls would be subject to that. That motor may or may not actually be a 75. The Chrysler line had many hp designations over the years.

Moved to Chrysler forum

I'd be leary of any work done by someone using the Starcraft logo on a Chrysler outboard. But pending a hands on inspection, if in the market for a Chrysler OB or tri-hull, it might warrant a once over.

I wouldn't ever be interested in going to see it.

shoot, if it's just up the block I would be tempted to look it over. Think the model number plate should be inside the rear pan, port side.

Boat looks nice and clean.
Do a compression test and​ check the gear lube.

I thought it looked like a chrysler - just thought it was interesting. No intention of buying it. Looks like the guy put some time and money into it.
