Here's a couple pics my dad converted from slides from the late 60s early 70's just so you know I'm not a hater and since I'm relatively new here hopefully get me some street cred with the 'mob' I've read about. These pics are when we lived in Portland but spent much time in Eastern OR, WA and Western ID (John Day, Roundbutte, etc) If I need to delete this post and put the pics somewhere else just point me to the correct place.


(BTW he always wanted a Chief and as you can see he sort of converted the CC to one)

Sweet! That's the Mariner, maybe? Cool conversion, and I love the 70s photos. Really awesome.

DELETE????!!! are you kidding me?!? Images of a Starmada Forefather...this thread should be a sticky! :hail:

Awesome conversion! Did you find any images of the cuddy's interior? I bet he would cringe seeing a cuddy decapitated :eek: :lol:

love the pics, we don't see many vintage shots like that around here! looks like you have two starcrafts there? a closed bow, and the cc to chief conversion?
Are they still in the family?

No they were dad's when I was growing up and he switched to Sea Ray around '74 until he got out of boating in the early 90's

The first is a Jupiter, not sure on the CC - and the conversion did not include a cuddy he left open bow.

I'll hit him up and see what other pics he has.

ok went to my photobucket since you like them - these are not all as good but workable.


I believe this would have been Round Butte in the Jupiter

The loon is pretty cool. Some pretty good creative thinking on that design.
