    What year hulls are the same as the 1968 Holiday 18'?

    With the complete destruction of my existing hull, I have decided to start the search for a new one that will allow me to reuse much of the parts I already have. Anyone have a source for this information? Thanks JD

    After getting the tree pulled out it pretty clear that its a complete loss. The underside is badly buckled and the hull has a pretty severe twist now. not sure what to do at the point.

    Thanks Moserkr. There probably aren't too many people that would understand what I'm going through outside of this group.

    I ordered the Turning Point Hustler and was surprised is arrived the very next day. I installed it but was not able to get back out on the water until the other day. out of the hole, It felt identical to the old prop however I still noticed the same thing where there just wasn't anything after...

    1968 StarCraft Holiday restoration

    I'm not really sure about the model or make as the only numbers visible is the prop size and pitch that is cast on the back side of one of the blades. I'm not sure if you can tell in the photos but it is cupped, not sure if that's a lot or not. I guess part of the problem at least is the rough...

    Been a minute but have been having a lot of fun this year with the boat. One question I have is with my current prop setup. I am currently running a 14.25x19. holeshot is great and no complaints with top end speed either. The problem I notice, after about 4000rpm there is very little change in...
