StarCraft lover

Hello guys I haven't had time to post pics of my 15ft 1972 StarCraft Capri with 1972 85hp outboard. The weather here in KC has been horriable. I just love my StarCraft I have been looking for one for years since I saw my first tri-hull years ago. I was wondering when did StarCraft come out with the Cathedrall hull and tri-v hull I can't tell witch mine is? Also has anyone ever converted a Ski boat into a fish and ski on a Capi? If so where would I put the live well or could someone give me a sugestion?

I bought the boat off Craigslist for $1200 from an old man in the country he had done some resteration to it with new carpet and seats from bass pro and a hummingbird depth finder. will have pic up soon weather is to change Also how do you move up in rank?

Any tri-hull is good to fish from as they tend to be very stable. My dad bought one back when I was a little guy and I have fond memories of fishing trips on it.

Livewell should be near the stern if possible as that part of the boat doesn't get bounced around as much(splashing water and fish around).

I'm going to just plumb a big cooler so I can move it around as needed.

Rank goes up when your post count goes up. Once you hit 20k posts I think they let you make up your own rank

Still looking forward to some pics, those Capris are sweet, I really like the 20' one that is open-bow AND has a cuddy cabin

Check out the brochures, there is a link in my signature. We have quite a collection going and the ones from the 70s have info on the tri-hull designs I think.

Re: StarCraft lover

I was thinking the same thing and just using a cooler for a live well. I have looked at the brochures and that 1974 20ft capri sport cruiser is bad ase. I would like to find a top for mine. I do like the camper top or even the one with side windows. My capi looks like the gold and white on the brochure. If you can find a 1972 brochure I would like that so i could see what all came with the boat that year.
