    '67 Holiday 18' - Make it Usable

    Everything is ready for her first trip since I bought her. Did the transom repair. Got both motors mounted with new impellers. Both run and shift great and pee good. I'm excited to take it out.

    Rod Holders

    Yes, I have a Fish On brand on my 12 foot mirro-craft. I just took it out and it fits fine in the mounting brackets in the pic above. Thanks.

    Rod Holders

    I have these mounted several places on my boat. Are these a very common hole that I can just order the actual rod holder and it'll fit in these?

    Just a few guestions

    I might be wrong, but think it's the HIN that started to be assigned to boats starting in 1972. Not VIN.

    Just a few guestions

    Did you get a title with it? Is it registered with the state? My 67 StarCraft hasn't an HIN, but it has a title specifying the year, and it's registered with the state.

    Suzuki 75hp

    I guess what I'm thinking is, if it has good compression and the lower end is solid, if I put money in this motor, it'll probably out live me. And considering the cost of new.....

    Suzuki 75hp

    How much money would be a reasonable amount to put into this motor? It looks like it has been well taken care of, but it's surging and I gave it my best attempt and then decided to take it to a shop. So, assuming it has low hours, how much is it worth to keep it going?

    '67 Holiday 18' - Make it Usable

    Suzuki 75hp

    Update.. I couldn't notice any difference between the Amazon $14 impeller, the genuine Suzuki $30 boats.net impeller, and the one I took out of the water pump. I installed the Amazon one and will be keeping the genuine Suzuki one for a later time, and keep the original as a backup.
