    Value of a 1970 StarCraft Chieftain

    For $2000 i would likely buy it if it was near me if the hull was in decent condition. My 63 came with a 1978 evinrude 90hp V4 that has been troubled free. Keep your eye open for a used engine similar or newer.

    Value of a 1970 StarCraft Chieftain

    I was under the impression the Starchief was the 18' model and built into the mid 70's and the Chieftain was available in a 22' or 25' model.

    Value of a 1970 StarCraft Chieftain

    How many years has it been exposed to weather with the cover off the shelter? As mentioned may need new deck. I would start at $2000. Looks like a Starchief - mine is a 1963

    Great time to sell a used boat.

    So also a good time to keep a used boat. Boating doesn't have to be expensive. I was lucky, and two years ago, after a year of searching found a near mint 1963 aluminum starcraft starchief with a 78 evinrude outboard. Did not take a lot of work to have it in excellent condition. Costs around...

    1963 Starchief

    Have been looking for a Starchief for a few years. Found this one reasonably close to home. Solid floors and transom. Interior in decent condition. Need the lake to thaw so I can take it for a trial.

    1959 Lone Star

    I just found a Lone Star Saratoga in my area. As I have a thing for old aluminum boats, I committed to it. Hardly a ding on it, just some bad paint. Any tips for paint removal? I have sanded and polished before, and will likely try that.

    1975 Starcraft Chieftain Express

    Regards. New to this forum, but not to boating... I have found an old Chieftain hardtop for sale I have a few questions. It has been sitting for twenty years, is complete, and was running when parked. I can likely get it for $1000 or less. Obviously it will be a major project and the impeller...
