The Construction

Start with superb appointments, plush right down to the vinyl-covered floor.

The driver's seat, thickly cushioned, is contoured to cradle you in deep-down comfort, race after race!

Supple, rich padding is used lavishly throughout, even on the gunwales!

This Powerboat Performs!

Performance? Strictly GTO! The semi-vee hull gets up and goes flat out in seconds. It's stronger than most, too.

Like all handcrafted Starcraft fiberglass hulls, this one is hand-laid with layer upon layer of heavy, woven fiberglass, rather than being quickly sprayed together with chopped-up fiberglass. When you're pouring on the horses, that extra strength is mighty important.
