Nice boat, but,
the new owners will have to be a 'Chuck" & "Edith" or they will have to change their names! LOL

Good Luck, I am sure that this boat provided a ton of great times!

Original gel on a 35 year old boat in that color looking fantastic is a deal in itself. If I was independently wealthy this Starship would definately join my fleet. Good luck selling even though I think this one will sell itself in an eyeblink! Great price too...

chuck and edith are the org. owners (35 year's old painted names)
part of the deal when I bought from the second owners that I couldn't change them.

The trailer is in pretty good shape, the tires are shot, it needs a winch,a trailer jack and bunk carpet. I used it through 2003 and decided to replace it with the karavan. It is stored outside 25 miles away so I will get you pics in a couple of days.

Saint Joseph is in the south west corner of Mi. 30 miles from the Indiana border.

Did that boat grow up on Geneva Lake in Wisconsin? I seem to remember that boat on a lift near the town of Lake Geneva, two doors down from a Magnum Starfire.

Interesting boat...looks to be in pretty nice shape.
Quite the arrangement where the ski locker is, it looks like a stereo system of some sort. Is it removable to access the space behind it? Any engine work lately? What kind of performance do you realize with this boat?

the stereo is all in one box( deck and speakers ), it has a 4way trailer plug for wireing so you can just unplug, undo two latches and the whole thing is out. She runs 58-60mph GPS full of fuel,two people and the pin in the top hole.

I hope the sale of your boat comes to a successful, smooth conclusion. I'm glad you were able to sell for $9,100 on eBay, after being willing to take $8,000 for it here on the board.
