my father in law had an old Starcraft I/O with the 80HP Renault engine. A couple years ago, I bought this old '69 17' Glasply with the Renault 80HP I/O in it complete with the crank operated outdrive tilting mechanism. I didn't know it at the time, but it had rot in the seat frames. I stayed with my plan to fix it up since the hull and floor/stringers were sound as well as the engine/outdrive. Other than the shifting linkage whose cable was held on with a hose clamp rather than a nut which I corrected, it didn't take much other than new seats and carpet. I never put it on the water since no one else wanted to take the risk. I got my money out of it and moved up to a better, larger boat that could occommodate 4 adults and pull a skier (me).
