Re: The search for a free (or nearly free) Starcraft!

Don't tell anyone, but I actually lived in a van for a couple months about a million and a half years ago. It wasn't nearly as bad as you might think.

Of course, it was during the summer months....

Wow, I didn't realize that you were that old PR. Shoot you don't look a day over 28 buddy.

Yah, I lived out of a backpack for nearly a year. Loved it!:D




Well rats! Double rats! If I had the time to drive to the west side of the state and back I'd prolly end up dragging one of these home!

I bet $350ish would take that 18' and $150 would close the deal on the 12'. Well shoot.

Ok, kick me out on this one, but I have to brag. Tomorrow, I may be the new owner of a 14 ft featherlite fishing boat. FREE! This tin was passed around the neighborhood for 7 years-ish and no-one wants the job. I've seen her before, and know it needs A LOT of work. Gimme a challenge. As long as his cat doesn't kill me, ill try to snap a pic.

I was just pointing out what they sent me when I asked about a Starcraft. They told me "You dont want a Starcraft, this is much better..."

Always a sad day when a tin boat goes to scrap.

Ah well, you were looking for a big girl anyway!:)

True. I Like-a-me a big girl....but only in my boats. If you say that wrong, I might be the one nailed by the aforementioned Fry pan. I could go for just about any tin at this point. As someone said, there aren't many tins left in Florida. I previously had a 18 ft Donzi ragazza with the same i/o as Jason. I paid 20k in 88. But sold in 04 for 1k. I'll never buy new again!

Jason... sorry bro. We've all made errors. I'm tired of glass boats though. I seem to get the bad end often. So free is good.
CBK ...I meant cabin tinney's. I will try to be more specific. I do have a Passion for SC though.

Kev, I saw that islander before looks interesting. But the lil lady made me buy windows for the lake house yesterday. Today, I had to buy a new hard drive for the computer. :(
I wonder if that 12ft would take my blown 427? ,;)
Happy holloween gents !
