Does anybody know the year and model of this boat. Need to know for insurance before we make the purchase.

Its a Starcraft, probably an Islander, and probably 1970's vintage based on the motor.

Close Jim, but a Chieftain or Starchief, not an islander.

The writing is to small for me but is not a name on the back of the boat?

Got any paperwork to come with her?

Chieftain or Starchief. Islanders in the early 70's had the gangster or gunboat look. Take a look at our brochures, starting around 1970 - http://forums.iboats.com/forum/owne.../s/starcraft-boats/358596-starcraft-brochures

If it's a '72 or later, Look for a HIN plate on the starboard rear, up close to the transom rubrail. The HIN starts STR.


Sweet! I have managed to narrow it down to a 1973 Starcraft Starchief. Thanks everybody for the help!
