    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    Maybe disassembly and reassembly will work. I took mine all apart and reassembled with new rivets. Haven't had an issue with sagging and such. (Now I need to go check my window...) lol SHSU

    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    I ran into a similar issue on mine. Ultimately, I had to add a shim under mine to level them out. Plus under the back braces too because of the added thickness of the flooring. SHSU

    198x SS-150 rebuild

    I think every transom has to look like that for it to be a restore on here.... lol Right or wrong, I just skimmed with JB weld when I patched mine. SHSU

    Wood in mine. Personally would have preferred aluminum. Guess they changed the design over the years. SHSU

    Starcraft 1971'? 16' to Duck Boat Rebuild

    What temperature did you apply it in? Once epoxy starts to kick it usually cures faster, not slower. Did you mix enough hardener and for long enough? I would do a test sample with your spare epoxy to see if you have a bad batch. SHSU

    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    I have ours mounted on the front of the console. It has been pounded by water many times with no issue. As you aren't plugged into power during use the cover seals out the water. SHSU

    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    You would have to try and swap them. I think its the connectors at the helm that will make or break the idea. Other option is just swap the whole steering box. Holes should be the same so should just be a simple unbolt and rebolt. SHSU

    Air riveter for solids and blind is the way to go. You have now idea how nice blind rivets are until you buck a couple thousand solids. lol SHSU

    1987 Starcraft islander 190v?

    Most times the anodes are on the outboard. As long as you got a good connection between the hull and the anode I don't see an issue. Just use a multimeter to check resistance between an anode and some exposed metal on the hull. As long as you have no resistance, should do the trick. SHSU

    Where do I belong? Alum Goods 1687, SS16 Clone?

    Looks really good!!! Impressed with your thought to detail on the curvature. I didn't install my padding back as I didn't think people would be resting against it, but love the finished look. The front access hole, my PO cut a whole in it to get to the front area too. I don't know why...

    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    I didn't have issues with my T-nuts falling out, but I liberally coated them in epoxy while I was sealing the base. Just ran a tap through before I did the install with no issue. Once you get bolt in them, I don't see an issue. Its just in the interim if you leave them free. SHSU

    1987 Starcraft islander 190v?

    Anodes: For freshwater, magnesium is the preferred metal For Saltwater, zinc is the preferred metal I just drilled a hole through my skeg and installed a circle anode there. SHSU
