    1st boat - 1981 Starcraft SS 160

    @Dacranks If you’re replacing the floor and its open, foam will be easy to inspect. If water logged, then replace it. Also while in there, it would be worth properly replacing the rivets with solids. Blinds dont have the structural strength like solids from what I understand (learning a lot...

    Ss windshield brace

    @El Gaffer Looks great! Did you cut the brace, bend, and rivet it to cover the gap?? Cause thats exactly what i was thinking of doing! Please share where you got the bolts and which ones exactly too.

    Ss windshield brace

    Fully understand the issues that could be caused by it being removed. Its all personal choice and situations. I dont see modern boats with windshield bracing like that. Ill bolt her up tight and if i regret it one day ill rebuild it lol. As far as my situation goes, I wont be getting into...

    Ss windshield brace

    All good mnhunter. Thanks. I was planning on adding a few bolts along the side for good measure. Hoping i can figure out a way to plug that hole thats leftover from cutting the support too. Support doesnt seem to do much but get in my way lol.

    Looking to buy an older Starcraft - Do you know this dash?

    @anticon Score! She looks all original to me from those photos. Great buy, better deal than I got but can’t find em like that in CA too often. Motor alone could fetch that much around me. Will look forward to your new thread, curious what she needs done to her.

    21' Holiday Rebuild

    I know how ya feel. And Im hoping the scratches from the nylox brush dont require me to smooth them out before i paint!! Otherwise its just more time wasted lol. Baby steps, will be worth it in the end!

    Ss windshield brace

    I remember reading about that in your thread @MNhunter1 I’d like to do that to my boat as well, not a fan of the big bar sticking out. Looks a lot cleaner without it. When I took apart my windshield, i could see where a T bolt could be slid in to stabilize it. MNhunter1, do you remember how...

    21' Holiday Rebuild

    PO had the “hydroturf” in my boat prior to me tearing it out. Only removed it due to the color and now ive learned that certain colors fade - lime green is one of them. Super comfy to walk on barefoot, not slippery when wet, doesnt absorb water. As @benfish909 said its jetski material. Did...
