    Starcraft on C-list/ebay!

    1. That's a pretty good candidate for a resto. Although the 70 hp Evinrude is a tad small for an 18 footer to me, and $700- $800 would be what I'd be willing to pay for a boat like that needing a deck, likely transom, and lower unit work on the outboard. 2. That's a nice 18ft center...

    Starcraft on C-list/ebay!

    Redneck joe This Holiday GA posted is a little pricey to me even with the extra motors, what looks like new gauges, and a " New marine grade " plywood deck. Even with My preferred Chrysler outboards the price seems high.:noidea: http://nashville.craigslist.org/boa/5941838173.html Maybe...

    Carb cleaning ?

    Iv'e seen a few videos on ultrasonic set ups. They look like they work pretty good. I had the carbs on my KZ looking brand new but with them dulling so quickly I got pretty disheartened and decided that I would only go to that level again on a total restoration done for show. I just haven't run...

    Truck rims vs caliper clearance

    I think the Coopers you linked to are a good tire. I haven't had a set of Coopers in 10 years or so, but the the sets I've had always performed good. I like the tread pattern on them, but I bet they sing on dry pavement. If you get them let us know how you like them.

    Truck rims vs caliper clearance

    Those do have a wider lug gap than what I run. Since I'm not plowing just driving over uncleared roads for service work part of the time the Hankooks work well for me. Plus I don't switch them out when the weather inproves and the roads are cleared. Here is what I run...

    A Diamond in the Ruff? Or a guaranteed frying pan to the head from the Admiral?

    I found this today in one of my customers back yards. The nice lady said it belonged to her late son and that her grandson had tried to sell it a couple of years ago. They had one person who came and looked at it and said they would take it. That person never came back. It has been sitting out...

    What did i get myself into?

    As it hasn't been mentioned yet I will throw in when choosing wood for your repair no pressure treated wood should be used in your aluminum boat. Marine grade plywood or exterior grade sealed with epoxy with a uv stabilizer is best. You can also seal the wood with either Old Timers formula...

    70 degrees today so... Time to get out the SS...

    So it's been unusually warm here the last few days, and today after church the Admiral and I decided to take the SS to the lake to enjoy what is probably the last warm day we will have before spring. Now the lakes around here don't freeze over like in other parts, but when it's below 50 the...

    Suggestions on a new winch.

    I have a aluminum 1981 Starcraft Super Sport on a tilt trailer with a 75hp Chrysler outboard and the winch is toast. I think the boat with motor and gear weighs around 1200 lbs. My two questions are does the weight sound about right on the boat, and if so what would be a good replacement winch...
