Fish-Hawk Boat Upgrades...

Post by JimW »

Well in the summer of 2022 I purchased a 2008 Starcraft Fishmaster 196 boat as an upgrade to my 17 foot Tracker, that the hull crakced.

Unfortunately in December 2022 I was in a motor vehicle accident while towing the boat.... no injuries but with Startcraft did get some scratches and a couple small dents. :(

Over the winter the boat was refinished and will be on the water soon after a little interior clean up and motor tune up.

Looking forward to getting her wet!!!

I will post more details as time goes on.... here is a sneak peak. :D

Did some spring cleaning and checking the systems out to make sure all is good to go on the boat.

I love the Ulterra trolling motor...

Had the boat out the other weekend on Lake Ontario for a little test run and a bit of lake trout fishing. Put about 40 miles on the boat.... the lake was like glass.... caught a few fish as well.

A little video cruising on Lake O.

Love the back end of this boat.... perfect for trolling.
