    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    I think I’m just gonna forward ahead with one of them. Dash is coming to life. Photo attached, but it says Site administrator needs to do something. Can’t read the rest. It’s cut off anyone having issues uploading photos.? Wondering if this site does not like my VPN…

    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    Thank you. Looking again, three of them are labelled Telex safe T system. None of them say NFB or no feedback. Not sure if that matters. I’m probably only running up to 70 hp on this boat, although maybe up to 90 if I re-power to a modern four stroke. So saying that, I wonder if I should...

    Struggling to get this thing off of the mothballs. my health is remained pretty decent with the exception of some side effects and recently Covid. I’ve actually managed to make a few panels. Working on the dash and sorting through some of the stuff that I have. Before I throw out the rack and...

    1976 Starcraft Chieftain 18' OB - restomod

    No need to apologize! I’m struggling to finish a supersport due to health challenges..you sound like you’re making the right decision. Get out there and enjoy with a boat that gets it done! More fishing and making memories. And someone will love to finish what you started

    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    Thanks for this. Your photos make me wonder if I may have another issue to contend with; a cup holder. Hopefully the cup that drops in will clear or I may have to patch the hole. The good thing is I haven’t cut the hole in the nautolex that’s covering the dash top yet. I think. It’s been a while...

    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    I can see making the switch cluster work, but don’t feel on the tach unless I cut studs down. I guess I could do that. Modifying brand new things is always my last choice in case I have to return it. If you have time to snap a quick pic, that would be great.

    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    Update, I located the brackets under “steering wheel bezel kit” but they are all standard depths. I found a universal looking one with more hole mounting combos, but who knows if it fits the gearbox from Italy. Might be worth a try. Come to think of it, I guess I’ll just make one that works with...

    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    i’ve managed to get past some health issues that were attached to the post-cancer treatment I was receiving but now feeling absolutely great. Could use a little more strength, but my energy is excellent and back to smooth sailing so I’m back working on the dash layout. I’m hoping I can stick...

    Supersport dash and interior side panel ideas?

    That is beautiful. The banjo wheel is the perfect compliment

    Supersport dash and interior side panel ideas?

    Thanks, didn’t consider a blister early enough. I’ve already clad and installed the helm stations. I’ve also got a Helix sonar going back on top and what you don’t see yet is the cup hole cut outs already installed under the nautolex. But I might be able to add a small housing for the tach on...

    Supersport dash and interior side panel ideas?

    I’m just starting to rebuild my dash. It had nothing on it but a steering wheel, nav light and a cigarette lighter. I’m adding a tach for the OB, a 6 gang switch with a voltmeter, a 12v acc plug and usbs. I’m also adding a horn button and already it looks jammed packed. I have two auto bilge...

    I believe that’s what these rotary gearboxes are? At least they look the same one. I look it up online. Actually, if I’m not mistaken, one of them even says it on the housing. that’s the one I will use

    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    Thanks, with the measurement, you’re referring to the length of the cable from the steering box to the motor connection? Any thoughts on lubricating these systems? All of them are used, age unknown. I’m hoping lengths will work out.

    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    And the whole winter passed me by without doing anything on the boat. I mothballed it under an A frame tent for the winter and focussed on rearranging the garage so mamas new car could fit inside for the snowy months. That and misc home Reno’s that never got completed. So, back to the boat...
