I had a time with my car once, every time I tried to plug in my phone charger, a spark would come out of the plug. The plug was in the ashtray, I don't smoke and use the tray for change, a dime had made its way into the plug hole.

That's almost good, a little too done for me though. I like it to still "MOO" when I stick my fork in it. 8) 8)

Usually the hull ID is the registration number issued by the state when you register the boat, the serial number is the one given to it by Starcraft when they made it.. They will never be the same on the title or registration. I've had a 71 SS for almost 20yrs, [/url][/img] [/url][/img]...

My dad's still around, but not able to do much. I remember when me and my brother were little, 5-6yo little, the Air Force wasn't as security conscious as they are today, in the 60s. My dad used to take us to work with him on the weekends and during the summer when school was out. His was in...

Looks like an old Starcraft.

Well I got a "new to me boat" that was never put in the water before new. I'll clear that up a little, I was looking for a new creek boat, when I ran across an ad on Craigslist. Guy had bought a brand new 2011, G-3, 1436, with the livewell, brand new trailer to go with it. After buying it he...

Never did good with the Mirro-Lures, but have done really good with the jigs, also do good with the new Gulp Shrimp. I used to trout fish alot in Pawleys too, the North end by the jetty. Nothing like floating a live shrimp for a Gator.

I've got a 1970 16ft SS. I don't think it's anywhere near the 900lbs MrSimon mentions. I don't know the minimum HP listing, but I know the data plate lists an 85hp max. I have a 90 on mine. :shock: :shock:

She's gone. Someone local got her in trade for taking out a tree for me.

I don't know about the reading part, but that third picture, the piece of wood he wants to use for the transom, sure looks like a piece of treated 2x6.

Like it says, Free boat. She is a 1960, don't know the make. She is a solid little boat, a 12 footer, no leaks, transom wood is solid. I painted her a couple of years ago, the paint should still be good, just a little dirty and sun faded, but some cleaning should bring it back. After she was...

Went to Wal-Mart a few weeks ago, picked up a new tackle box, while I was there I found a bunch of good hooks and swivels, and some Spiderwire on clearance, I'm pretty well stocked up now.
