Nice little rig corso! You can take a look at the Starcraft brochure sticky there at the top, that may help ya. Best of luck on the windshield, that can be a tuff thing to find unless you have $$$ to work with. About $500ish for a new replacement. Some guys make their own while others use a 2/3 piece scrapped out of another boat.

Welcome man!

Im on a...low budget lol
I could never justify throwing $500 down on a boat I gave $900 for : /
Guess Ill "troll on" with the plexi until I come across a bargain!
Thanks you for the welcome...ill be checking in...as this is a never ending forum of knowledge

Yah, kinda figured, ha! About like nearly everybody who swings through here. Good news is you'll find tons of help and excellent resources on making a bottom feeder budget work.

Congrats on that sharp little Holiday!

I nearly bought a 1974-76 15' Holiday a couple years back, nice little boats:)

Welcome aboard, plenty of good info here. There are some windshields around from folks who've cut out the bow, maybe one will show up on your local craigslist. Due to the fact that the 15' rigs aren't as common it may be tough to find though.

If the frame is ok maybe a piece of lexan/plexi could be used to replace the glass?
