Hello All, I just joined after browsing the modification section. Great site! I recently sold off my 12' Meyer to up-size to a 14'er. I got what I am told is a 1973 Starcraft. It's in pretty decent shape and I have quite a few mods in mind for it but I seriously doubt the age of my tin boat. I have seen pics of other 1973's and they all seem to have aluminum bench seats in them whereas mine has the old wood seats.

Looks like it's in good shape for being a 73. The hull looks like a twin to mine, a 98 starcraft 12ft. I noticed that too, a lot of starcrafts have the wooden seats like yours. It may be a blessing in disguise for you. More storage or extra room for gear, plus you can always replace them fairly easy and even color match the wood to your liking or other things on the boat like oars etc.

Are you sure that one is a Starcraft? I don’t ever remember seeing one with the diagonal seam in the Bow area....

Nice Barn also. What is the ceiling material?
Thank you, I'm very fortunate the use of the barn is included as a perk from my number one contractor. So long as all equipment and materials are organized and kept clean. The ceiling is half inch r-board.
I see your from Houghton. I think we will be heading to st.clair to chase smallmouth at the end of next month, have you ever launched at metro park, and do you got any pointers?
Also, I liked the pic of your starcraft further up in the thread!

Finally got the Smoker Craft out for the year. I didn't catch anything, but it was a nice day to be on the Mississippi.

Sorry, your waaaaay up there I saw Michigan and I figured maybe lol! We're hoping to go but it won't happen probably because of the virus. I've only fished it a few times and that was trolling for walleye.

Yeah, but he's only a hop, skip, and half a jump to the Gay Bar!!!
:LOL2:

And speaking of Houghton, I've got an itch to get out on the bike, and maybe camp out at the end of the Keeweenaw. I hope things get opened up by the time the black flies are on the downswing.

Yeah for sure Paper, the tourists love getting their pictures by the sign out there. When you say getting out on Your Bike 🏍 do you mean an Enduro ?
