    1st time build.... 1986 Alumacraft 1648

    Couple of questions... Is there any noticeable delay from what you see on the primary unit and the tablet? Do you have any issue with the tablet screen in direct sunlight? I love the welded supports. I wish I knew someone who could weld aluminum. No one I know has ever done it. I would make...

    Interior overhaul of Starcraft SF140DLX

    Based on what I have seen on this and other forums, I would say that removing the seat will only reduce support of you fail to replace it with something. You should be able to brace it adequately with some aluminum angle.

    UNK year/model Starcraft 14'

    I am now assuming that this is a Seafarer, just based on what I've seen in other threads. Does anyone have an intact hull plate that they wouldn't mind sharing a picture of? Mine is too far gone to make any sense of it, and I want to stay legal and get another one made up.

    UNK year/model Starcraft 14'

    Found this on Amazon. Was wondering if anyone ever purchased one...these reviews are a bit lacking for my liking. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000KKD304/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=3MIYZ5BCF6KNB&coliid=I1ZSNALYBMS7A0

    Sealing an old boat.

    I sprayed flex seal over the seams and I haven't had a drop of water inside since. But it looks like *****. Maybe if you use it inside and then cover it with a floor. Honestly it seems like a cheap way of sealing things up. I'm not one for shortcuts but my dad convinced me to try it, just to...

    14' Starcraft Seafarer Build

    I'm also from PA (Bucks Co.) and like what you did. I am 95% I also just bought a seafarer. Although the model information is long lost, my title just says Starcraft.

    conceal carry pistol

    I love my G43. It's my EDC for these warm months. Carry with either my Desantis Cozy Partner or sticky holster when I don't feel like wearing a belt. This was my first Glock and with talon grips it's perfect...my only complaint is the mag sticks sometimes if the angle isn't just right. (Yeah...

    lowrance elite 3x

    I had one on my kayak, but when I sold it I bought the elite 4x DSI. I'm considering buying another 3x for the bow when my project is ready for fishing.

    UNK year/model Starcraft 14'

    Okay, that makes sense because they are tough to turn so it wouldnt make sense to be a choke or anything else. I will have to disassemble the unit and clean and lubricate everything and make sure all the cables are tensioned correctly. Thank you

    1960’s Aerocraft 12' deck mod

    I did not completely remove the center seat. I left approx 2" at the bottom, and braced with some aluminum square tube and angle that doubles as floor joists.

    UNK year/model Starcraft 14'

    I have operated several modern boats over the years, so i'll admit that I am a bit confused by the controls here. I get that there is most likely a throttle control and probably a forward/reverse lever. If I'm off target let me know. What I am unsure of is the little knobs on the top and the...
