197? what Starcraft? some one tell me

[JohnnyFire]

I have recently obtained this boat from a friend for cheap money but turns out it needed a lot of work.

I will try to link some photos but some one please send me some info on what year and model this boat was maybe even what it looked like new back in the hayday.
(p.s. 18ft aluminum)

Ayuh,... Probably a SuperSport, or an ole Holiday, before it was butchered...

I agree.... That is a Super Sport hull. It's missing the consoles and those pieces of angle attached inside the bow are the remains of the bow seating supports.

What length is it? A 16' SS is rated for an 85 and the 18" is rated for 140.

Is there a metal tag attached on the transom outside? The last two digits will be the year.

I just finished restoring/modifying the same boat. Mine was a stripped hull but at least I had the console frames. http://forums.iboats.com/showthread.php?t=329927
