    Bow Mount Trolling Motor on StarCraft

    The Terrova was probably the least expensive 24v 80# motor would be my guess, didn't need all the fancy fobs and such for my fishing style.

    1994 Starcraft Super Fisherman 170 Rebuild Help

    Welcome aboard, lots of projects here where our SCs have been stripped down to bare hull with repairs to the Al as well as deck and transom replacement. With motivation it takes at least a year to accomplish for the average person. We always enjoy seeing pics :cool:

    1970s Starcraft SS 160 refinish

    Only to the rib ends for the decking, the side panels come down to cover the gap.

    1970s Starcraft SS 160 refinish

    I'd normally shy away from using blinds on the bottom of the hull but if the holes are under the rib ends, you'd have to pull up the ribs to be able to buck the solids just to plug the holes. If that's a the case then I'd get some stainless steel blinds, coat with 5200 and call it good. AL...

    Question for Starcraft Chieftain owners
