Hello, New to forum... This may be my Starcraft, looking to buy, but the owner can't tell me the model. He says the year is 1962. Can anyone identify it? Thank you...
It's hard to tell from those pictures but looking at the brochure I think it is a 62 with a replaced windshield. Print the brochure and take it with you to try to identify it.
Whether it's worth $500 depends on a whole lot. Look at how well that windshield fits. I wouldn't buy it if it doesn't seem to fit right because it will be a PITA to find a windshield for it and you can find another Starcraft for $500 in that condition with the correct windshield.
This isn't a good thread to have this conversation though. You should start your own topic thread.
New to boat ownership and the forum, so I'm at the beginning stages of discovery. Engine Model, Boat series, and any information I can get my hands on. Known Details - 1986 Starcraft CSS 161 Mercruiser 3.0 140 HP Alpha One. Last in water at the end of summer 2017, was running and winterized. Previous owner had aspiration of restoring, but enjoys Kayaking more and abandoned efforts. As the family was renting a boat and having fun on the waterways of Lake of the Ozarks, I accidentally bid on this and won it. :facepalm:
I did not do the work. Fortunately she was in this condition when I bought her. I'd like to redo the carpet this winter to a lighter gray color. It's currently a red/black carpet.
I was actually shopping for a bass boat when I stumbled upon the Nova. Fell in love with the classic lines instantly! Such a timeless looking boat.
Thank you, the hull is great but floor and transom were really rotted. I have a new transom glued up and a floor mocked up. Its going to get a offshore bracket and a outboard. The bracket is laying in my backyard and the 1985 Johnson 150 is at work. Here is a pic of my floor.
Yeah. Im going to add some non slip mat in some spots. My buddy sprays line-x so I thought about that route too. You have any ideas? I did score a convertible style top. I should start a new thread but I broke my phone that had alot of the tear out pics on it
