I have been given what I believe is a 60's or 70's era Starcraft boat with a 45hp West Bend outboard. I can't find a ID plate on the engine and the ID plate on the boat is badly damaged. Any help on where I can find info on either boat or motor would be great. I'd like to do an updated resto on the boat to get in back in the water. I just learned today that I have to replace the floor so off I go on my first resto of a boat. Any help would be great. Thanks!<br /><br />Mike M.<br />Richmond, VA

Thanks for the lead... I joined but no feedback yet. I have to say I like this BB better. It is more structured and organized.<br /><br />Thanks again<br /><br />Mike M.

Re: Looking for info on Starcraft Boats

Saw your post come across that group, but until then, I thought you were talking about an aluminum hull. There is a brochure for the mid-70's models, in the files section of that group.<br /><br />Since it's 'glass, why not try over at FiberGlassics . They've got a few brochures from the mid-60's.<br /><br />One of these places should help you with your restoration, at least in terms of original pictures.<br /><br />As for your floor rebuild, you're correct, this board is VERY good, and using the search function should get you all the info you need.<br /><br />Good Luck!

Ed,<br /><br />I tried Fiberglassics and I could not post there. I joined and filled everything out but when I went to post it wouldn't let me... Oh well. Like I said I'm happy here.<br /><br />Thanks

UPDATE:<br /><br />I have discovered that this is a 1964 Starcraft boat. I still don't know what model it is but I am atleast headed in the right direction. Thanks for all of the help I have recieved.<br /><br />Mike M.
