Starcraft on C-list/ebay!

Oh man that stern drive is nasty and corroded... she looks to be a salty dog... :grumpy:

Another 26 in Indiana...this one is currently posted on the facebook "Starcraft Aluminum Boats" group. He's claims it's got a freshly rebuilt merc 5.0. Gutted. Taking offers :noidea:.

If you have a fb account it's a pretty decent group (not sure if this link will work): https://www.facebook.com/groups/142561435756250/?fref=nf

Uh what/who is that in the background? Talk about freaky, take your 45 ACP with you if you go get that SS.

And then send me the bow rails

 

[64osby]

If I didn't have the LS it would probably be in the yard. Should be a much easier fix.

But I would keep the bow rails.

Ohh the things I could do to that 16SS unfortunately the Admiral would throw me overboard if I brought in another tinny at the moment. I bet if one were crafty enough they could find a donor boat on the way up with an old school outboard, and a good trailer, could make it home with less than $400 in a trailer, boat and motor. $ Less a $50 dump fee for a rotten glasser.

What better way to store your froze up headless cast iron block than in a bow down 18' SS

Does a cast iron engine block stored in a bow down aluminum 18' SS perpetuate galvanic corrosion?

I saw that one and would have sworn I saw it a couple of years ago in a craigslist ad in Georgia asking $900

There's a 25' Chieftain up for sale in NW Ohio for $800, think it might be one of the guys on here that put it up.

Wish I had a bigger garage or storage shed...

 

[Watermann]

Sometimes I wish I had a boatyard :lol:

I wonder what the big old brute looks like now after another 9 long years since that pic was snapped.

 

[redneck joe]

dang it the 16' Jupiter is still listed and i'm only a couple days away. I need to start getting money from the ATM.


Serious note - on a tin boat what are the red flags that are different from a glass one?

I plan on lookin at on the way north and if all good 'looking at' again on the way south.

 

[smokeonthewater]

Red flags on tin...... WLOD, cracks, weird patches, excessive corrosion, obsessed starmada folks hiding in the bushes..... Jus sayin.... Lol

 

[GA_Boater]

Crawl under the boat to look for missing rivets, check the chines for cracks, look for the favorite wood of PO's - PT and use a flashlight to look for signs of corrosion in the hull in the bilge. Not much more you can do without tearing it apart. Of course, a water test if you are looking a "water ready" boat, same as a glasser.
