here's a pic of my boat, you can see how its difficult to get up underneath..

I can't get the spray underneath the bench seats, if you tilt the can upside down to spray up it doesnt work... the sides of the benches come down to about 8" of the floor. I was thinking of filling the boat with water but i'm not sure the trailer could handle the extra weight

I've got two different hives under the bench seats of my 16' duranautic. How has everyone got rid of them without getting stung. the little bastards got my daughter.

Pappy if the screw is sheared off and the oring is melted, how hard is it to fix (Obviously, I'm not a mechanic. My wife came into our marriage with more tools than I,But I had alot more fishing poles) I really need the peace of mind knowing theres another option to get the motor up. Thanx Bill

i have a 90 yamaha 4 stroke and the motor on the tilt/trim went out last week. cost to replace is $900.00 but my question is the tech told me my manual override screw had ceased and he didn't want to try and fix it because "it might open a costly can of worms " . I'm not quite sure what he's...

I have a 18 starcraft ss with the runabout fold down seats ( front/back ). I'm thinking about taking them out and installing two individual seats with pedestals that adjust up/down. It seems when i'm driving the boat i'm sitting on top of the old seats with one foot on the fl;oor and one on the...

Sorry, but I have to ask... I just bought a 1983 starcraft 18SS, it has a carpeted floor which is actually in great shape. My question is: I do alot of fishing with live or chunk bait which makes quite a mess after a day of fishing. After I wash her down where does all the mess go? into the...

nice looking boat...I just got an 18'SS starcraft (1983) I put a 90HP 4stroke on her. she rides real nice. Please post pics of all your progress. does yours have a bilge pump ? I just changed mine to a auto, seems like I'm taking on a little water. It turns on about every 45 min. and pumps out...

I tow my 18"ss starcraft with a Honda Pilot, no problems at all, I believe the dry wgt of my boat is around 1400 lbs, add motor, fuel , etc and I'm probably towing 2000 - 2100 lbs. If your motor seems like its stressing on a pull out just put the motor in a lower gear, you'll be fine. Thats a...
