    88 Starflite

    I was just informed I can’t compress pictures. I’m going to try and make contact with Chris the forum owner and see what I can do through the forum. He may want to have the information available on the forum for all members to access.

    88 Starflite

    Your in luck. Found pictures of the entire restoration. I copied the pics of the reconstruction of the transom, stringers floor and bow eye block. Unfortunately the files is 80 MB large. I'll need to have my IT buddy put it in a Zip file. Can't estimate when that will happen since he is out of...

    I will try to get into my photos and get the pictures of the replacement of the transom, stringers and flooring. If the forum allows me to post them I will. otherwise you could send a PM with your email address.

    As mentioned, I sold my Starflite to Mr. Determination back about 4-1/2 years ago. Do I miss that boat? Hell yeah. My wife didn’t think the same way. Life is empty without a Starflite! 😎

    👍 Nice job. Mr. Determination bought my Starflite 2 years ago just before I sold my house in Cape May, NJ. I’m now back in the 1000 Islands, NY full time. I still have to get another boat. Not sure what I’ll end up with. Wife wants to Toon. I guess that can work, so long as I can hang a pair of...

    I tried to access my photobucket account with no luck. Apparently they have removed my account. Sorry for any inconvenience. I’m not sure if I have any pictures I can send you. My restoration was over 12 years ago.

    2000 ZT330 Restoration Build Thread

    Nice project! I have to say, I wish it was me in your shoes. I'm a glutton for punishment. I enjoyed the resto I did on my 85 Starflite. Bigger water here on the St. Lawrence River at the Canadian border doesn't allow me to enjoy my ride. Always GO BIGGER!

    Sale

    Sim's wife has asked me to post the sale of his 1998 230 Enforcer. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures or updated info on the boat. I'll have to get all this and get it listed for the members to see if any may be interested before putting it on CL.

    Sad News

    Many thanks to those of you that have replied. Weather you knew him personally or just had the opportunity to chat with him on the forum, you just knew what a great person he was. I will copy your replies (if possible) and pass them on to his family. I had the opportunity to spend quite a bit...

    Sad News

    It is with sad heart to inform the members of this forum that one of our members has passed away. Sim Platek passed in his sleep 2 weeks ago. His wife Laura was able to reach me last night with the news. My prayers are with her and son Adam. No matter what we plan for, our life span is not...

    2000 zt330 Windshield - help finding replacement.

    Send a PM to Coop. I gave him the name of a custom windshield builder I believe is in FL. I can't find the name but he may still have it.
