    White or Black ????

    Got the restoration going on my 66 Starcraft Sunchief. We pulled the outdrive off today and it looks like we're gonna blast and paint. It's currently black but my 66 Starcraft brochure and the 66 Mercruiser pamplet I have shows the outdrive being white. Can someone here explain this? I seem to...

    Need help locating W/S Gasket :(

    I've been searching for days for replacement windshield gasket material for my 66 Starcraft with zero luck. Does anyone have any ideas who might carry a gasket in this profile? I really wanted black, but at this point I'd settle for any color available.

    Any Exper w/Taco p-10 Marine Lumber?

    I'm looking at several websites talking about Taco Marine P-10 Marine Lumber. Does anyone have any experience or detailed info on this product? I can't seem to find a picture of the white or more specifically the Seafoam color. Also, I'm wondering how much heavier it is than 1/2" marine grade...

    Almost Paint Time

    I told you folks there were going to be a lot of questions. It's time to start thinking about prepping and painting both the hull and the top. The boat is aluminum. The existing hull paint is not in real bad shape-just a lot of scratches and a few touched up spots with who knows what. The top is...

    I know I have a couple of other threads going on here and I'm not tryin to flood the place, but I thought this would be better off separate from the build thread. Hope that's OK. We had a really great day forecasted for today so I called my brother and got him off the couch to help with the...

    Old Brochures

    Just thought I'd post this up. Terry, over at starcraftowners.com has given us a place to post up scans of old brochures. I know these things are hard to come by so it would be nice if folks could scan what they have and upload them. I've already uploaded most of the 1965 brochure and will...

    Seriously! Marine or Pressure Treated???

    OK guys. I'm located a little far from the coast and I'm ready to replace the floor in the ole starcraft. The best I can do on marine grade plywood is close to 500 bucks for 5 sheets and if I pay today, the folks at lowes will special order it and have it here on Jan 8. Jan 8 ?????? I'd really...

    Prop Markings?

    I have a build thread going on the restoration forum and asked this question there with no response, so I thought I'd try here. Again, The boat is 21'7", is powered by a slightly bored (040)110 HP Mercruiser and the whole deal weighs in at 2050 empty. I'd like to get a new prop and I'd like to...

    66 Starcraft Sunchief Re-Build

    This will be my first attempt at restoring an old boat, so I thought I’d do a build along. That way, in exchange for providing you folks a little humor (inevitable due to my inexperience), I can ask a bunch of redundant silly questions! The boat is a 66 Starcraft Sunchief. It’s 21’7” long and...
