    Bad luck with cars

    My wife and I have had extraordinarily bad luck with cars. Well mostly my wife now that I think about it. Her first new car was a Neon. That thing had chronic brake problems and a head gasket failure before 75k miles. I convinced her to trade that in on one of my beloved V6 powered GM products...

    '81 Evinrude 90 Stalls when going into gear

    My motor is a 1981 Evinrude 90. Just acquired it. Been sitting for a while and nothing has been done to it. The issue I am having is it stalls when going into gear. Otherwise it runs great. It starts instantly even from a cold start and will idle fine. Once you put it in forward it stalls. You...

    I hate to be the type to post a bunch of CL links but I know some of us are always on the lookout for an SS. This one looks like a great deal http://poconos.craigslist.org/boa/1433233380.html northern PA.

    Hard to cold start '73 V4

    What would make my '73 Johnson 85 particularly hard to start when cold? I'm getting ready to try to sell my boat and was meeting a buyer for a test drive this morning. Last night I fired it up in the driveway and it started fairly easily (my motor never fires up super quickly from a cold start)...

    18' Starcraft SuperSport restoration

    Just picked up a new project. I'm really excited about it because an 18' open bow aluminum Starcraft is the hull I really wanted. I think I got a fantastic deal on it. The hull is in great shape, the trailer is in great shape except for some minor things, and best of all, the 1981 Evinrude 90...

    Very cool Starcraft shows up on CL in southern MD

    My regular search for an SS led me to this ad http://smd.craigslist.org/boa/1362680474.html I emailed the seller to find out if it was aluminum or fiberglass and if it was open bow or closed. He emailed me and sent 2 tiny pictures. It's apparently an aluminum cuddy cabin like wrfalpacas's. A...

    Starcraft chat room

    I was just thinking that we need some kind of chat room type of application for us Starcraft guys. There are now a number of us total addicts (me, Rick, Andy, Kev, probably starting to ruin Scott). I'm surprised the forum software doesn't have some kind of capability in this area. It now has...

    Anyone see the episode of "Pawn Stars" with the boat?

    I just watched the episode of "Pawn Stars" where the son buys a boat. Here's how it's portrayed on the show. Guy pulls up to the pawn shop with this boat. It's a 1984 Chris Craft 28' twin V8 cuddy cabin go fast. The interior and exterior look to be in excellent condition but there's problems...

    Our Ocean City, MD trip

    If any of you doing restorations need some inspiration here it is. We have been going to Ocean City, MD every summer since I was born. For many years when I was growing up we had a close family friend who had a large pontoon boat on the bay in a slip. We went out on that boat often, crabbing...

    Boat in Saltwater for a week. Questions.

    We're taking the boat with us to Ocean City, MD for the first time next week to use on the back bays. We rented a condo with a very nice boat slip. So my boat will be docked there for a week. I don't expect to have access to a freshwater supply to do any engine flushing or rinsing while it's...

    Ezmobee's 1966 Jupiter

    I've been looking and commenting on Rick's, Kevin's, Andy's and other's projects and all their great pictures so I figured I should add some of my own even though it's been "done" for a couple seasons. The pictures in my photobucket link weren't quite up to date so I tonight I took some new...

    2010 Starcraft owners Get Together

    Alright here it is. The idea has been floated a couple times that we should try to have a weekend get together for all us Starcraft owners. We've all gotten very involved in each other's projects and I'm sure would love to see them in person. Plus it would be an awesome sight to see all our...

    Great first day on the water for the season (with pics)

    I just got back from my first day on the water in '09. Got the boat out of storage and brought it home yesterday morning. Yesterday we had ridiculous winds all day. The forecast for today looked much better. I couldn't get anyone to go with me so I went by myself. I started the motor in my...

    U-Bolt Fender Brackets

    I'm currently refurbishing a trailer and the fenders that were on it were rusty and mangled. They were welded on and I cut them off. I'm looking to mount a new pair of fenders. The trailer has a fully boxed frame and I'd rather not have to drill all the way through it to mount the fenders. I...
