WELCOME ABOARD!!!
You are in the right place (well website) for owning a Starcraft. Your model is a SuperSport, a great boat and as long as your not overloaded with too many people and gear, will plane out, but wont be a rocket on the water.
Sharp looking SS ya got there, that 35hp will be VERY good on fuel for cruising around. Might need a bit more to plane her out, but if you get it trimmed right and balanced weight on board she will scoot.
i really enjoy yalls forum i used it as a guest for months to get my other boat and motor running i ran acroos this starcraft while looking for motorcycle and gf changed my mind i really like the lines of this boat i live on right by greers ferry lake in ar and me and kids will really enjoy her this year thanks u guys and i will post more pics and prolly get new motor next year
I had a 74, 16' starcraft with a 87, 75 yamaha 2, stroke - it was rated for a 50. It would do 43mph I'm sure yours will plane!
Good Luck with it - nice boat.
We had a 70 15ft Nova with a 67 40hp Evinrude. It did fine with up to about 3 people and light luggage.It was difficult to balance the load with a bench rear seat.I cut the rear seat in half and put it behind the swivel front buckets, then put a 12 gal. tank under the bow.A 50 made it a very pleasant performer.
