Well, I was hoping to find a structurally sound hull, with a rotted floor with everything pretty much trashed.
That way I could fix her up the way I want her.
But when I got there, I found this:
A 1973 Starcraft SuperSport, 18'
65 hp motor
9.8 hp motor
Has removable front casting deck, original seating is still under it, cushions are in the truck.
The bow rail is there too, but was removed to install the trolling motor.
everything works including the speedometer, horn, gps, trolling motor, fish finder, nav lights, and even the windshield wiper.
Also has bimini sun shade with zip on side windows, condition good-but old.
has 1 small 1 inch tear in the flooring
I really hate to do anything to it, as it is almost all original.
But the seats have to go, replaced by 2 taller *swiveling captains chairs.
The front casting deck is out, along with the cb radio.
Gonna swap out the trailer with my new low wide galvanized trailer that I bought last year.
And have to add some lighting.
If it was all rotted out, I would make a ton of changes and add lots more storage space.
Need more power.
