Re: Tell us how old is your boat?

she has it... all around the stern.... also on the ski locker and the cooler cover... I don't know why they stopped putting teak on em.. Looks way cool.. see if ya can see it in these

That is sweet looking teak trim! I'm a big fan of teak on a boat, though I guess a lot of folks aren't due to the maintenance(?) kinda reminds me of the 80's v 90's boat thread on here, in the 90's they seemed to have gotten away from the teak and colours. Anyway, nice boat Joshua!

Re: Tell us how old is your boat?

I gotta get some of that teak oil stuff and get it all nice looking.. We picked up the boat late summer and getting as much water time as possible kinda made priority. They did make slick looking tubs in the day.. Stuff now is all white with **** yella trim..
After I got home with it I did some some looking and found out my tub was the Boat of the Year under 15grand in 87.. cool tidbits

I've got a 52 year old Alumacraft which I use all the time, and a 34 year old Starcraft which I have yet to splash. My kayaks and canoes run from a few years old to 15 or so.

Re: Tell us how old is your boat?

I have a 61 16ft aluminum Crestliner that I have had for 14 or 15 yrs.Copy of 100_2366.JPG Made a few slight modifications to it over that time. If the wife doesn't make me sell it soon I'll probably make more in a couple years. Paid $600, and I've been offered $4,000, course I've put that in it, not counting time. Rock solid. Just bought a 74 21ft aluminum Starcraft runabout jet for $1850. I have ideas on what to do with it as I get the cash.Copy of 100_3817.JPGCopy of 100_3818.JPG
