Is that a Ski Twin 33 hp? Had one of those once, it was a fun motor.
Yup and she just went good bye today as I had a lot of issues and someone wanted her more then I did. I have been wanting to convert to a tiller steer as I like fishing smaller coves and rivers. I also wanted more room for working jugs out of both sides of the boat.

Hello Starcraft community! I picked up this 1969 offshore v18 at the beginning of the year. Love it so far. Been catching a lot of bass and halibut around San Diego. She is powered by a 1988 Johnson 110. starcraft pic.jpg

Thanks JB, I bought this boat in Brainerd MN, thinking of rebuilding it and keeping it for myself, basically the same boat as my !9 starfire, my son and I measured it and the inside depth is the same as the 19 ft, 29 inches it;s about 3 inches narrower, and 1 foot shorter from the dashes to the stern, so gives me a lot of interior space, I'm thinking I have a lot of money tied up in the 19 so going to flip it and have the 17 for half the price, I made a typo on the first post the motor on this one is a 75 hp not a 175, I've got a line on a 2000 135 merc optimax that I will be putting on the 17 and sell the 75 and the 9.9 kicker, the 17 is rated for 125 so I don't think 10 extra hp should hurt.

Hey everyone, first time posting here. Here is my new to me 1981 SS 180 with a 93 120 Evinrude. It needs a complete restore which will hopefully be done by next summer. I'll post up the progress in the restoration thread.

That's a nice looking SS. I really like the color scheme. Good luck on your project.

Here's some pics of my current restoration. It's a 1974 StarCraft Holiday 16 with a 76 Merc 850. The pictures with her in 'Blue' are how I found it. It was very rough, needed a lot of TLC so far, and not nearly done yet. The trailer had to be totally rebuilt from stem to stern. I did concentrate mostly on the trailer last summer so that the boat would have a safe way to get to the water and back, as I bring it along. Will post more pics as I learn how to get them Full Size on here. Thanks.
