Thats very cool Kevin!!

We used to have a Starcraft Eagle. We thought it was an Allison flip! LOL, but I realized years later that it was a Laser 380 flip. We had a 225 Evinrude on it with a 26 Raker mounted low right on the transom. It would run well over 80mph on the speedo at the time. We would often outrun a guy on the lake that had a Charger SV with the same power.(Doc will tell ya the SV is almost identical to an SRV ;) :D )

We put a Merc 220 Laser on it after that, but never had a chance to test top speed. We were always impressed with how that boat handled!

Can't wait to see what you do with it!
Dave.

200 XRI that I used to own lol. Bought it back. Needs rebuild. Also an offshore mid. Have to see what I can do to squeeze some more power out of it. Anyone got a port map for a 245/260?


:D i have a ported steel sleeve bp if you want to see the ports you are welcome to it before i put it together, or a stock mod vp i have you could copy it also. is the xri steel sleeve?


The XRI is steel sleeve. I don't know how similar those sleeves you have would be to what I'm looking for but I imagine Top Gun must have one there I can measure up.


it's a 2.4l isn't it :|


Pretty sure it's a 1993 2.5L.

Those starcrafts are a neat boat and no one has a clue as to what they are. I think they were built pretty well too given they where built in an actual factory lol. The SV does share the same hull as the SRV but they never did work as well. I've got a buddy with a new one (not a well built boat) and when we both had 225s he was 20mph slower!!

The 380 is one of my all time favourites...I love the cockpit space over the SRV.

Over 2 years has past since I bought this but it's finally going to see some love. Right now it's in Boomer's capable hands for the gutting and prep work. Photos stolen from Boomer's Facebook
