My Starcraft experience from earlier this spring went a little sideways. and now boats and boat parts are multiplying like rabbits.
I got the Seafarer I purchased In February on the lake and outfitted to perform some inventory surveys.
It took some effort, I tried a couple 9.8s and wasn’t...
my patience ran out with my 2 9.8s they both blow to much oil and probably need seals throughout. I found a year old 25 4 stroke and bought it yesterday. I’m hoping to figure out how to rebuild after boating season.
This old tired motor, I think is gonna need some serious love. I need to start a project this is a work boat I ran out of time to try and save some $ and ended up buying a almost new 25ELPT.
now I get to rig it and restart my learning curve and figure out the care and feeding of a newish four...
Don’t be afraid of filling holes in the exterior gel, it’s really simple, my friend drilled a 1” hole for a tower in a mastercraft that was 3 inches off. We ordered a small gel repair kit and you can barely tell where the hole was. That was in 2012. I think drilling and bolting it down while...
Yikes that’s a lot of work, I like the old Malibu’s, I want a mid 90s response as a project someday.

I have to order a carb kit rebuild kit I think this boat has been sitting awhile. so I think it should be disassembled and cleaned. I'm hoping this is as straightforward as a...
a few ski boat towers have been damaged by a submarining tube, the main pole/pylon in the middle of a Mastercraft can take the hit, the rear tow hook is also supposed to. Ultimately it's the boat owners/drivers responsibility to always watch the rider through a mirror.
I inform anyone that...
Thanks, especially for the terminology google is a bit finicky these days. I came up with this after talking to a friend that explained how he does counters on the phone. I have one sheet cut and it worked well.
I cut a coroplast signboard into strips and just taped them together to make a line...
No leaks as far as I can tell, I let it fill with rainwater and the trailer is dry so at least the keel area is tight. I currently have the motor off and am building a template to cut the flooring with. I busted out the aerial photography apparatus and wanted a good overview shot to play with...
