Howdy Starmada,

2020 has been a very interesting year.... Hope every one is well and still above water (Sorry boat joke).

That said, it is the time of year we get to acknowledge all the handwork that has been put in by the members. Please see below on this years SOTY 2020 rules and procedures.

This thread will be the collection of nominations for the 2020 Starcraft Forum's Starmada Splash of the Year! This is open for any iboats website members to nominate their favorite boat that has been splashed back in the water after significant work, restorations, building, modifications, etc..

The Moderator team has created a great set of boiler plate rules for the contest, same as the last 3 year's rules.

Good luck to everyone. I know there are some excellent vessels that have been splashed this year that are very deserving of this honor!

Please read the rules carefully:

MOD RULES:

Conditions:

1: Restoration, rebuild, redo, rehab or re-worked project must have been well documented @ iboats forums. With good reference text and pix posts.

2; Nominated member must have been active prior to the nominations starting (Nov Dec) AND be willing to commit to being active after winning PLUS agree to return and help manage next years SOTY process including paying for the next year's winner plates and plaque shipping.

3: It will NOT be an iboats sponsored award.

4: Members MUST have 5 posts to vote in the SOTY poll. The Mod/admin team can and will look into voting irregularities, and has had to in the past.

5: This is not a popularity contest. It is stipulated that if you had a good buddy help on a resto, encourage him to join (the Iboats community) and vote. But not every random person (who you likely don't even know) who reads your posts on Facebook should be joining solely to vote. It will further be stipulated that ballot box stuffing, as deemed by the Mod team and Iboats admins, will be dealt with. This includes removal of a nominated boat from consideration plus possible banning of the nominated member for unsportsmanlike conduct not in the spirit of the award.

6: This a nomination, voting and award by members: fellow peers here at Iboats, that have followed a resto, probably assisted at some point along the way and want to recognize your hard work and dedication to completing your resto. Again, not a popularity contest open to voting for everyone that works where you do, the dominoes, square dancing or hockey group you're a member of or open to all your Facebook, Twitter or other social media "friends ".

7: No 'self' nominated boats, boats must be nominated by another member.

8: Again, as noted above, this is NOT an Iboats sponsored award or poll, and there should be no expectations otherwise.

9: SOTY winners may be contacted by Iboats admin or corporate staff to possibly be featured in a newsletter at some future date. This is not a endorsement (paid or otherwise) of the boat or owner by Iboats. It should be a badge of pride to have been nominated, and is a great honor to be voted the*(9 annual) " Starmada Splash of the Year 2020 winner ".. Or the 5th annual "Restoration Forum Splash Of The Year 2020 winner".

10. The nomination, win and plaque are the ONLY recognition or award. There is no award or prize of any kind from iboats.

Please post your nominations in this thread and paste a link to the owners rebuild thread. Please dont include pictures in this nominations thread. I will contact each of the nominees by Private Message to confirm that they wish to be entered in the award contest. I will add their info by updating this top-of-the-page post. Nominations up to a maximum of 10 will be accepted until midnight EST December 1st, 2020.

After midnight December 1st, 2020, a new voting thread will be created that will show all nominees and a link to their rebuild thread for your review. As in past years, I expect that 1 or 2 pictures of each entry will be included in the voting thread, usually a before and after shot. You will be permitted one vote for your favorite boat that was splashed in either forum in 2020. Voting will end at midnight EST January 10th, 2021.

Good Luck to the nominees

Is it me or were there only a handful of splashes this year? Maybe I missed others because they weren't in the Starcraft thread.

I’m here. Boat is done. Just didn’t splash it this year. Sitting on the trailer with winter cover on, waiting for early May. Shoulda taken better pics. Didn’t know there’d be a test at the end!

Looks like @Kmsp1264 hasn't been active since middle of October. Hopefully he swings by and takes a look at the chains we keep tagging him in.
