1983 sportcraft sportsman

[npd4432]

Hello, I own a 1983 Sportcraft sportsman 16' boat. I usually see these boats as larger fishing boats 20'+ Is there anyone that owns a smaller sportcraft like mine? I am currently running a 1983 Evinrude 75 Hp. motor on the boat. Purchased a few years ago from the original owner,81 years old and still water skiing!! the boat looks new. If anybody is interested I will post some photos.

I used to own a 17' Sportcraft Fisherman with a 75 'rude. Good boat, I just needed something bigger to get offshore.

I purchased a Sportman I/O 17' 1982 runabout last winter. It looks a lot like your boat. Interior is original and very near perfect. The stripes on the outside were badly deteriated and transom seal was cracked.Presently restoring stripes and replacing seal. 120 hp OMC sterndrive and everything works as new.
