    1981 StarCraft SuperSport 180 Rebuild

    We're on the same page, that's for sure! That is exactly how I went about it, and I have made a ton of progress. I did a borescope on all four cylinders first, then soaked all the cylinders with fogging oil. After a day, I rocked the flywheel until I got a complete rotation, then borescope...

    1981 StarCraft SuperSport 180 Rebuild

    That's awesome! Did you take any pictures of the build or post the boat anywhere? I'm going to use the marine grade for mine and seal it. I pulled the old transom yesterday and found multiple points of failure, so I'll try and correct them as best as possible.

    1981 StarCraft SuperSport 180 Rebuild

    As you can see the motor was a mess. I didn't take a picture of the inside of the boat before I cleaned it so what you see is a good vacuuming and soapy water scrub down.

    1981 StarCraft SuperSport 180 Rebuild

    Hey everyone! I figured I'd start a thread for my adventure of restoring this boat that I inherited. My great Uncle originally owned the boat and regularly used it on the lakes of NY by him until his passing. It was then given to my Uncle, but he never was able to enjoy it due to this health and...

    Aluminum Transom repair/replacement

    Lol oops! It is defiantly a StarCraft. I must have combined my SeaRay with SeaCraft and come up with a new boat.

    Aluminum Transom repair/replacement

    I just acquired an 81' SeaCraft SS180 with a Johnson 90hp that will need a new transom and I just started doing a bunch of research. If you want I can link stuff that I find along the way.
