68 starcraft 16ft

My fiancee just bought me a boat! But the only thing I know about it is it's a 16ft 68 starcraft. Any and all Info would be appreciated.

Welcome. That looks like a nice Super Sport you have there. We have an 81 Super Sport ( The one in my sig line). They are versitile and good platforms for fishing and water sports.

Very nice I had one just like it same year very easy to replace the floor very easy transom rebuild which I did both. I also hung an 89 v4 90 hp rude on the back that bad boy scooted along at about 40mph. And it would handle 5' waves no prob, not at 40mph. Me and my family loved that boat. Aluminum riveted never leaked.

My first thought is the only info you need is to confirm you're a luck dog! But you knew that. Others will be along with more detail. Nice boat!

Welcome! I'm also an SS owner. You won't find an easier boat to use and maintain. There's still good parts support for the older Johnson/Evinrude V4 motors as well.

Sweet! You're a lucky mate to have an admiral buy you a vessel. She's a fine catch!
Assesse her carefully and enjoy her makeover!

Welcome! I think you and the admiral will like it!

Welcome aboard :wave:

Oh yeah she's a keeper! Both of them that is, oh to have an admiral that buys the boats would be a dream for most us swabbies here. :lol:

Nice. I've got a 68 Jupiter that needs a transom and a deck.
