Any Platinum Prostars Out There

[Platprostar]

I purchased this 1988 20th Anniversary edition two summers ago from the origional owner. It was kept in mint condition. There were 200 made that year and this one is #30. I have only seen one other that was for sale back east. Just curious if anyone out there has one or has seen any around.

I guy near Lancaster, PA use to own one several years ago. Maybe he still does? It was number 69. (somehow that stuck in my brain) :D

Beautiful boat, love that silver metalflake!

The also made a 1993 Limited in black with pearl (?) metalflake.
Wish I could find one of those! I only saw one in the MC brochure back in 1993. I think they only made 25 of those.

It looks like a V/M trailer to me.That would be standard for a california boat of that era.But i've been wrong before.

I have a copy of the 93 Catalog.
Nice boat, but I like the 93 S&S better.

[BriEOD]

Is that a Johnson Bimini top?

[zinsane]

There is one around the Shreveport, La area. I have seen it a couple of times the past several years on the Red River.

That pic is not the one I'm talking about.
I saw a brochure with a Limited Edition prostar,
black bottom, wide pearl metalflake stripe and black deck.

Anyone got a picture?

The boat was origionally purchased at Cope&McPhetres in Santa Clara, Ca. Cope&McPhetres purchased all of their trailers from DHL in Sacramento at that time. The boat was on a black trailer but the buyer wanted a red trailer to match. I also found out that the bimini top was made by Mitch Johnson of Johnson Bimini tops. When it was made the company was called Palo Alto Upholstry. I will try to get some interior pictues. Just waiting for a sunny day to pull her out of the garage. Thanks for the info on the couple of others out there.

[flyinryn]

good luck on the sunny day soon.
from a fellow sacto person. hate the fog, haze or what ever it is.
just go away.

[Platprostar]

No kidding. I could always pull her up to Auburn. It's sunny up there!!

[captkidd]

I think I still have a 93 brochure, and I don't recall a black boat in it. Maybe it was a special edition of the brochure?

[flyinryn]

if you go to auburn can yo stop by and pick me up.

[Platprostar]

No Problem. We'll head up to Lake Clementine. Looks like the sun is trying to come out today.

[Platprostar]

I found this pic from an email the origional owner sent me before I bought the boat. Its the only one I have of the interior for now.

[skimax]

I haven't seen it that CLEAN since the day you got!.........

[Platprostar]

Yeah right!!

I spend more time keeping it spotless than I spend time with my family. Should I put in the picture of yours with all the boxes and bags piled all over it. Shame on you!

[skimax]

Hey Now.........lets not ugly, I moved and forgot what happened to my boat? thanks for finding it for me. I din't know it was under that BIG pile of boxes in the garage.

[Platprostar]

Glad to help. Let's take it out! TONIGHT!!

The black special edition boat was the 1990, Black hull pearl metalflake and teal trim stripe. Pretty good looking boat. Oh platprostar you have a keeper also.

wow, great looking boat. I haven't seen one that clean in a long time.

[Platprostar]

Thanks. Sometimes I think I spend more time with the boat than with my kids. But they will thank me when its handed down to them after they pry my lifless hands off the throttle.

Thanks, george! I guess I had the wrong year!
1990-1994 is the same hull, right? I know it changed in 1995.
87-89 where also the same, if I'm not mistaken.

I had a 1994 with an LT-1 and powerslot. That was a great boat.
Sold it in NJ and the girl I sold it to moved to Fla. (can't say I blame her)

[G-man]

NJSKIER 1991-1994 was the same hull
