Starcraft on C-list/ebay!

Yeah the older 1970's 18' Holidays are always coming up close by and in fact I have a late 70's one tied to a tree about 15 miles from my house. The elusive V5 hull 18' OB SS seems to always escape me.

Out the window drive by photo of the ole gal...

Gotta ask.... is this near Cashmere?

 

[Watermann]

No this one is around 100 miles north.

My guess would be they put a bucket on the exhaust to keep rain from filling the lower so it won't crack if it freezes.

I'm pretty sure Watermann was talking about the HUGE clamshell over the outdrive

A beaver-tail~like slow troller?

Just doesn't look like it is that long.

I think that was noted the last time it was posted too. I agree it definitely looks like an 18ft'r

I'm thinking it's half a trash can roped to the LU? :lol:

... and the transom assembly is like octagon or something too. VP?

Anyone know this company - the toll free phone number on the ad didn't work, which is always a red flag, but being from Canada, it may just be that I can't phone from outside the U.S.

Probably the # is a US # only.

Google the number and the web site pops up. Looks very legit. They have a contact us page, email them.

Pckeen you can likely call them from the free magic jack app, Skype or Google talk if you use those.

Is that one of those rare '97 "classic" models? Looks a little dated to be a '97?? I do kinda like the black windshield and rail though.

Maybe the Lapstruck lines are painted on. Maybe the poster is dyslexic.

Not classic:

Retro

Pckeen, I have seen that boat from the road as I drive past that company.. it looks like a large repo lot. The company has been there as long as I can recall. I will be driving past there this weekend, shoot me a PM if you would like me to look it over for you or try calling them from the US. It looked beautiful from the road!

That's great - thanks! I have an email into them, but so far, it hasn't been replied to. If the price is right, I will absolutely take you up on that. My guess is that they will be asking a pretty penny for this boat, however.
