Hello to all, I've been reading posts in the starcraft forums for a week or two before this
I thought I was the only one who owned and loved a Starchief. I am sure glad I found this
site. Learned more about my Starchief in two weeks than fifteen years of owning her. But do
I have questions now.
1. I know Starchiefs were made in one colour a year what year would a red to wine be ?
2. I need to repower and replace the transom it is an outboard model, I would like to change
to a 120 140 merc i/o. Does anyone have info on this?
If you are wondering why I want to go from outboard to i/o
1. Around here there are lots of beaten up boats with good i/o's for 2 to 3 thousand dollars
that would give me motor, drive, controls, stearing system, gauges, and a trailer to sell.
2. Grew up playing with carbs and points and rebuilding car motors, outboards are from an other
planet to me.
3. I might be wrong but the 115 outboards I could buy for 4 or 5 thousand dollars would be 2
stroke pre 2000 would be louder, smokey, and burn more gas.
I thank you all what a great site and I'll try to post more pic of her later. I posted one in
a photo album I think you can all open it.
