I have purchased a Starcraft boat with an ID tag that reads 16' Jupiter, Serial# 63-16785, Max HP 80. It is aluminum hull. The title states it is a 71' but from reading threads I am thinking it is a 63'. The boat has a 80hp Evinrude Starflite selectric shift. Also have read that some people would recommend staying away from these, however, I was able to disassemble lower unit and diagnose why it would not shift and research and find parts to repair it. I have put it back together and everything seems to work. Now waiting for carb kit, then we are going to the lake. Would like to post pics and get some feedback. Have read and seen pics of some great restorations and personal touches. What a great site.
Please give me any suggestions. I bought this bought for $350.00. This is my first boat and the reason I bought it I have an avid 6 year old boy that loves to fish along w/3 yr old boy. Really looking forward to spending time with the family in our boat.
