Starcraft on C-list/ebay!

The trouble with some of the long-life models is the evolution over the years. Jupiters had at least three windshield styles and I think was the final iteration.



Who is asking about longer Holidays? Here is a 21 footer.

And you are right - it's a 15' Jetstream, at least via the color scheme.

Yeah, that would be my best guess as well. The Novas have the trademark line/strip all the way down the side, just under the rubrail. It's actually formed into the hull, not just painted on. The windshields also have a dark tint to them and the bow cap cuts straight across the dash without any curve around the corners where it intersects the side gunnels. My 15ft is rated for 65hp max, I'd assume the Jetstream would be the same.

If you need a home for that 80hp, my 16SS is still without a power plant

Interesting dash, sounds like a water ready Holiday. Although the transom looks original.

way to spendy 10.5K buys alot of boat these days, although I'd love to find a 22' supersport i/o

For a water ready boat is it too much??? How much time and $$$ does does it take to re-due one?? DJP has been working on his for 2 years+.

Not in my budget or my wants

Perhaps a water ready or nearly W/R 18ft 1970 Holiday @$2500 is a better fit:

130hp Merc I/O w/ Bravo outdrive

Claims to be completely gone thru all but paint @trailer and boat

Someone needs to rescue this one...

"It's a 120 mecruiser inline 4 cylinder thinking about scraping the boat cause I want trailer it's a good boat but without the title it's hard to sell so if there's anything you want before summer I'm going to pull it apart and sell what I can. The motor ran great last time I used it."

I just don't have a place to hide it for a couple years, nor the means to tow it.

If its in immaculate shape, with an obsessively particular disciplined owner- with good add-ons it may be worth it- but its a stretch in Ohio/Mich where I live - maybe more reasonable in other areas (or currencies-lol). Most of us here though are looking for deals/projects.

I'll probably be $3.5-4K + into my 18' Super Sport when its done (2+ years)- if I don't count the tools that I've added to the collection, but I also got into a decent shape, water ready 26' Islander for significantly less than he's asking.

Yeah I can see a SBC 350 in that one . I actually like the "coupe" look of my Chief over the longer ones for what I need it's perfect. Funny how SC makes these boats, they're never actually the length they say. Without the bow cap on mine measured 18' 11". I wonder if the others are off too?

 

[home-boy]

I almost went to look at this one but decided against it

 

[redneck joe]

why? Looking is (almost) free,,,,

1975 Starcraft Chieftain 22'

Am I seeing this correctly? Did someone use this 22' Chieftain as a DONOR BOAT!!!!! :jaw::jaw::jaw:

Mind you, if someone wanted to plonk an all new motor and mechanical systems, and restore something to you, this would be a pretty good place to start.
