Hello all. I have been reading on here for a couple days and have found answers to many questions I had. I am sure I will have more questions soon.

My wife and I just bought a new to us, 2005 Starcraft Deluxe 240 Fish, with a 60 HP Mercury Bigfoot 4-stroke. It is in very good shape and we can't wait to get it out. We live near Cincinnati, OH and will do most of our boating at Brookville Lake, IN.(We will have a bouy there) Anyone else boat at Brookville?

This is the best photo I have right now.

Welcome Greg! Nice looking toon... Stick around and have some fun :nana

Do those front seats stay low like that or do you they move up higher? Seems like they would be hard to fish off that low?

Hey Greg,

New Concord Ohio here, between Zanesville and Cambridge. We boat on Salt Fork State Park and Seneca lake, which is apart of the Muskingum watershed district. Welcome to the forum!

Welcome to the site! I haven't been to Brookville yet but have heard great things about it. Good fishing I hear for Walleye and Smallmouth . I live just north of Indy and hope to get down that way sometime.

Welcome Gerg... Think you'll enjoy this site... good group of people.. nice toon.. from the pic you provided looks to be in really good shape.. I was going to make some smart a&& remark about those fishing seats in front, but as usual, a couple of the others here have already chimed in. Enjoy your boat my friend... getting to be that time of year... thank god....
