2013 Starcraft Fishmaster 196 (Hours / Miles)


Recommended Posts

My 2013 Starcraft Fishmaster 196 with 4 months to go to finish the 2024 season at this point has 10,997 miles recorded on my Simrad Autopilot log checked today and 3,100 hours on the previous 150 hp Mercury and repowered 200 hp Mercury 5 years ago combined. Is it fair to say it gets some use?

I have a 2012 196 FM.  My second one, and I love it. Unfortunately the hours on mine are quite the opposite. It’s been in the water 3x in the past 4 years. As much as I hate to, I’ll be putting a  For Sale sign on it in the spring.  🙁

Sorry to hear your selling Rusty!  I get it if your not using something it's tough to let it sit idle too.  These boats fish well up to 5 ft swells in Lake Ontario.  I keep my front bow as light as  possible with nearly no weight and a bow cover always in place.  No electric trolling motor or batteries up there.  I do  have a 30 lb bell anchor but that's it.   You will have no problem selling it and it's wise till wait till Spring during the peak selling season.  I sold Starcraft boats for 14 years retired now.  I know a good friend of mine that might be interested in your boat here in Vermont.
