I have the same starcraft. Redoing the deck. Have 4 pieces cut. Now ready to carpet. Should I carpet each piece separately, curling carpet underneath, or just carpet the top of the deck in one piece.

Man! What a treat to see that boat!
Back in 1972 when I was a young newly married third class petty officer in
the USN I bought one just like it (but in better shape) with a 33 Evinrude
on it. Great boat! Ran all over the Laguna Madre with it fishing and
camping.
I'm looking forward to seeing the finished project.
Press On.
Mike

Well I took a little time to uncover and work on the old girl
I built a new console for her, the original one was really too small to add anything to it. I also switched the cable and pulley steering to hyrdaulic setup someone gave me. I think its a bit too long though.
