I saw the Starwelds at the Sportsman’s show and I seriously liked the layout of the 1700 and 1800. Build quality, fit, and finish seemed good for freshwater midwest boat. Like the idea of welded hull. My old Crestliner sportfish was dry as a bone even after she was 15 years old.
I’m a little concerned about them being a relatively new brand. Not a lot of feedback out there one way or the other and most of the posts I’ve seen on other forums are new buyers so question being have any potential flaws shown up yet?
Anybody running one? Anybody else considering one?
Yeah, yeah, I know. Buy Lund. I’ll give you three guesses at how much Lund wants for a similar boat. Hint: It’s more. Surprise.

hi i own a 19 ft Starweld Flex by Starcraft which is owned by smokercraft, like a lot of the bosters here i felt it listed to port, i returned it to Boat World in Everett Wa and requested it be fixed by warrenty, they added these trim tabs which solved the problem
