    You won't have a possible fiberglass horror story with lust the OTF and have saved $$$.

    1973 starcraft ss restore in progress

    Yeah aluminum stock is difficult to work with and very expensive, I used it when building support structure for my raised casting deck framing.

    82 Starcraft MR 180 floor, slight refit and leaks

    More solids pulled into the wood by the other 2 components. Nothing gets past the first layer of waterproof glue in the plywood and it's also good for wood bunks.

    Personally I would use Helmsman spar urethane in gloss rather than the varnish in the OTF.

    My 18' SS now has a 115 Merc on it, I think that's the sweet spot for an 18'r. Not a heavy gas hungry V6 and will push into the 40's at WOT.

    Post a pic of your starcraft!

    An Islander made it's way to Russia, that's the first one I've seen. Welcome aboard, Islander looks great.

    1969 holiday

    Nice interior work, can't imagine them not replacing the wood transom when doing all that work. That year of SC the issues that would come up are rib end and spray rail cracks since it's prior to the placement of the hull braces in the early 70's.

    Nothing from Gibbles. Guess we can have a single nominee?

    Helmsman is good stuff. I recommend the gloss as is has the most solids.

    Deep Cycle Battery not good for starting??

    Is there even a problem with starting or anything other than wondering about hurting the motor? No a deep cycle lead acid battery won't hurt your Johnson but using a starting battery for anything other than starting could lead to a problem with a dead starting battery.

    SOTY 2024

    Seems maybe interest is waning for these boats being brought back to their former glory. I know social media is taking some of the boats but I think people enjoy having the instant gratification of likes and ogles on the apps. Anyway I knew of a couple boats splashed this year and besides that...

    Helmsman Spar urethane is what I've used for my decking. You could also use the Old Timers formula.

    1978 Islander 22 I/O

    I see what you're saying the motor mount block, terminology I guess as I see most guys calling the deck supports a stinger too.

    1978 Islander 22 I/O

    This looks more to me like a saw cut the Al as the material is removed and it's straight across the top, not a common area for a stress crack.

    No money in making people well, they spread you around for weeks or months to everyone and then never tell you what's wrong or even venture a guess until they all get a cut. Here try these pills...
