Found this Starcraft with Gale Outboard...
I was out the other day and noticed this old Starcraft that looks like it has not been shown any care in a long time. I love classic outboard-powered boats, and I found this one especially interesting because of its Gale outboard. This made me think about asking more about Gale's history. I should probably copy this post into the History section here.
It's my understanding that Gale was OMC's economy brand of engines, and they were essentially a standard Johnson/Evinrude. I would really welcome any further information on Gale though, since I do not know much about them.
This boat is located at the side of a building right next to Duffy's Bar and Grill, in Cape Coral, off Cape Coral Parkway. The boat is right next to a dumpster, so I hope that does not mean that the boat is being junked because it looks like it could be restored. In case anybody is interested in perhaps contacting the owner of this, here is the approximate location: Google Maps link.
