I wonder what amount that check was made out for?

Interesting anyway.

I wonder how much SC corporation helped with this? It appears to be an ad for us to take our boats to them for restoration. Where's the fun, challenge and pride in having doing them do it? And for what price? I vote for us and our Iboats supported web presence.

I think the SC bottom feeder equivalent would be some HF motor stands and a couple cinder blocks :p

Course you can't call or email Starcraft so that might serve as a challenge.

I'm with you banana, they build them new, we'll rebuild them when they are ready to be thrown away.:)

Really? Nah.

Two motor stands? Yah, that would certainly upper rung bottom feeder though. Real bottom feeder = Keeper Straps from the back of the truck...

Looks like a way to keep the Starcraft peeps busy during the winter.

It would be interesting to see how much they charged to overhaul that rig. All the labor spent getting that old hull stripped down and prepped (to the same point as a new hull ready for paint) could have been spent on building a new hull... I'm not sure there would be a significant price different between a rebuild boat and buying one new.

For us home rebuilders there is a huge price difference, labor is free

Man no phone number!!! I guess i'll just have to fix my leaks in the back yard. Yes I was guilty of lusting over the flashy paint job.
