Re: 18' Starcraft SuperSport restoration

I forgot to ask- Did you bevel the edges of your floor this time? Also- what kind of saw/blade did you use? When I cut mine I used a jigsaw and was a PITA cutting the 3/4" ply.

No I didn't bevel gunner cuz I used a circular saw for 3 of the 4 pieces. The front most piece, which is pretty triangular, I cut with a jig saw and did bevel that one. I may hit all the edges with a sander before I reinstall.

Re: 18' Starcraft SuperSport restoration

I used a jigsaw but it's easy to develop a speed wobble :) The first two pieces I did a bevel but the last two were squared off as I remember.

Check out the new Evinrudes. These new E-tecs are engineered by aliens or something. If I had an outboard and a ton of cash this is what I would buy. Behind the scenes they are made buy Bombardier that build jets, and turbine driven trains, Rotax race engines, jet ski's, etc.

Check out the videos...

CBG! Nice to have you back!! I was afraid we'd lost you. Anyway, although I trashed the floor pieces I took out (bummer cuz I easily could have just given them to you) the new ones are cut and fitted but not yet installed. So it would be easy for me to make you a cardboard template or something.
