$22,990

4.3L Volvo Penta V6 • Minn Kota PowerDrive V2 • Lowrance HDS 7 • 12-Person Capacity • Fishing Package • Bimini Top • Bluetooth Stereo • Trailer Included

If you're looking for a boat that can take the family cruising in the morning, spend the afternoon fishing, pull water toys, and finish the day relaxing at the sandbar, this 2008 Starcraft 2000 Limited Deckboat deserves a serious look.

The beauty of the Starcraft 2000 Limited is its versatility. Instead of choosing between a dedicated fishing boat and a family runabout, this boat gives you a little bit of everything in one manageable 20-foot-class fiberglass deckboat. Its wide-body design creates substantially more usable room than a traditional bowrider while still delivering the handling and performance people want from a fiberglass sport boat.

This particular Starcraft takes that versatility even further with a legitimate fishing setup including a Minn Kota PowerDrive V2 trolling motor, Lowrance HDS 7 electronics, elevated bow fishing seat, spacious forward casting area, and plenty of storage for fishing equipment and lake-day gear.

One of the biggest things that separates this boat from many others of its age is the condition of the interior. The upholstery has been exceptionally well preserved, with clean white seating and dark accent panels throughout the cockpit. Finding a 2008 deckboat with an interior that presents this nicely can be extremely difficult.

Power comes from a Volvo Penta 4.3GL V6 I/O, giving the boat strong all-around performance for cruising and recreational use while retaining the huge integrated swim platform that makes an I/O deckboat such a great family setup.

Add in its 12-person capacity, Bimini top, removable table, Bluetooth Jensen stereo, fishing equipment, huge swim platform, and included Starcraft trailer, and you've got one seriously versatile family boat.

Spacious Starcraft Deckboat Design

One of the biggest advantages of the Starcraft 2000 Limited is how efficiently it uses its available space.

Unlike a conventional bowrider that begins narrowing significantly toward the bow, the deckboat configuration carries more usable width forward. That creates a much larger passenger and recreational area without requiring a substantially longer boat.

Benefits Include:

✔ Wide-Body Fiberglass Deckboat Design
✔ Spacious Forward Seating & Fishing Area
✔ Excellent Passenger Capacity
✔ Stable Platform While Fishing
✔ Open Walk-Through Layout
✔ Deep Interior Freeboard
✔ Large Integrated Swim Platform
✔ Easy Movement Throughout the Boat
✔ Family-Friendly Configuration
✔ Sporty Fiberglass Runabout Handling

Whether you're fishing, cruising, swimming, tubing, or entertaining friends, the layout makes excellent use of nearly every inch of the boat.

Volvo Penta 4.3L V6 I/O Performance

Powering this Starcraft is a Volvo Penta 4.3GL V6 sterndrive package, one of the most popular marine engine configurations found in mid-size family runabouts and deckboats of this era.

The 4.3L V6 provides a great balance between performance and everyday usability, giving the boat enough power for family recreation without the additional size and weight of a larger V8 package.

Performance Highlights:

✔ Volvo Penta 4.3GL V6
✔ Sterndrive Propulsion
✔ Strong Acceleration
✔ Smooth Cruising Performance
✔ Excellent All-Around Family Boat Power
✔ Power Trim
✔ Proven Marine V6 Platform
✔ Easy Engine Compartment Access
✔ Excellent Watersports Capability

The I/O configuration also keeps the propulsion system tucked beneath the rear seating, allowing Starcraft to dedicate the stern to one of this boat's best features-a huge integrated swim platform.

Fishing-Ready Deckboat Package

This isn't simply a family deckboat with a fishing seat added to it.

This Starcraft has already been outfitted with equipment that gives it legitimate fishing capability while preserving the passenger space and recreational features families want.

Fishing Equipment Includes:

✔ Minn Kota PowerDrive V2 Trolling Motor
✔ Lowrance HDS 7
✔ Elevated Bow Fishing Seat
✔ Large Forward Fishing Platform
✔ Spacious Casting Area
✔ Multiple Storage Compartments
✔ Excellent Bow Access
✔ Wide, Stable Fishing Platform
✔ Plenty of Room for Tackle & Gear

Spend the morning working weed lines with the trolling motor, then put the fishing equipment away and spend the afternoon cruising with the family.

That's what makes this setup so appealing-you don't have to own two separate boats.

Minn Kota PowerDrive V2

Mounted at the bow is a Minn Kota PowerDrive V2 trolling motor, giving anglers quiet electric control when working shorelines, docks, weed edges, drop-offs, and other structure.

Trolling Motor Benefits:

✔ Quiet Electric Operation
✔ Precise Low-Speed Control
✔ Excellent for Casting Shorelines
✔ Great for Bass & Walleye Fishing
✔ Bow-Mounted Design
✔ Keeps Main Engine Off While Fishing
✔ Already Installed & Ready to Use

For someone who wants to fish seriously without sacrificing the comfort of a deckboat, having the trolling motor already installed adds substantial value.

Lowrance HDS 7 Electronics

At the helm you'll find a Lowrance HDS 7 marine electronics display.

The HDS platform gives the captain useful sonar and navigation capabilities from one conveniently located display.

Combined with the Minn Kota trolling motor and forward fishing station, it makes this Starcraft significantly more capable for fishing than the average recreational deckboat.

Exceptional Interior Condition

One of the biggest selling points of this particular Starcraft is simply how well the interior has been preserved.

For a 2008 boat, the upholstery presents extremely well and reflects the care this boat received from its previous owner.

Interior Highlights:

✔ Exceptionally Clean Upholstery
✔ White & Dark Accent Seating
✔ Spacious Wraparound Passenger Seating
✔ Comfortable Captain's Chair
✔ Large Forward Seating Area
✔ Clean Fiberglass Cockpit
✔ Multiple Cupholders
✔ Large Storage Compartments
✔ Open Social Floorplan
✔ Excellent Overall Presentation

Older deckboats often show their age first in the upholstery, which makes finding one with an interior this clean particularly desirable.

Huge 12-Person Capacity

Don't let the manageable overall size fool you.

This Starcraft is rated for an impressive 12 passengers or 1,700 lbs, with a listed 1,890-lb persons-and-gear capacity.

That makes it an excellent option for larger families or anyone who regularly brings friends along.

The deckboat design gives passengers significantly more room to spread out than you'll typically find in a conventional 20-foot bowrider.

Perfect for:

• Family Lake Days
• Entertaining Friends
• Sandbar Trips
• Fishing With Multiple Anglers
• Sunset Cruises
• Swimming
• Watersports

Huge Integrated Rear Swim Platform

The stern is one of the best parts of this boat.

Because the Volvo Penta engine is installed beneath the rear seating rather than hanging from the transom like an outboard, Starcraft was able to create a large, open swim platform across the back of the boat.

Swim Platform Benefits:

✔ Large Integrated Platform
✔ Easy Water Access
✔ Great Watersports Staging Area
✔ Excellent Sandbar Setup
✔ Wide Rear Deck
✔ Convenient Boarding Area
✔ Uncluttered Transom Design
✔ Great for Swimming & Relaxing

Whether you're climbing aboard after swimming, preparing a tube, or sitting near the water at the sandbar, this area will quickly become one of the most-used parts of the boat.

Comfortable Family Seating

The 2000 Limited offers the open, social layout that made fiberglass deckboats so popular with families.

There's plenty of room to move around while still providing multiple seating areas throughout the boat.

Seating & Comfort Features:

✔ Spacious Forward Seating
✔ Wraparound Passenger Seating
✔ Comfortable Captain's Chair
✔ Deep Interior
✔ Multiple Cupholders
✔ Large Storage Compartments
✔ Easy Walk-Through Layout
✔ Removable Table
✔ Plenty of Room for Family & Friends

The removable cockpit table is particularly useful when you're anchored for lunch, drinks, snacks, or an afternoon at the sandbar.

Remove it when you want additional floor space and reinstall it when you're ready to entertain.

Bimini Top Included

A folding Bimini top provides valuable shade over the passenger area during hot summer days.

Bimini Benefits:

✔ Excellent Shade Coverage
✔ Increased Passenger Comfort
✔ Great for Full-Day Lake Trips
✔ Folding Design
✔ Easy to Deploy

It's one of those features you'll appreciate every time you're on the lake for more than a couple of hours.

Upgraded Bluetooth Marine Stereo

The boat has been upgraded with a Jensen MPR2121 marine stereo featuring Bluetooth connectivity.

Audio Features:

✔ Bluetooth Connectivity
✔ USB Connection
✔ Auxiliary Input
✔ Marine-Rated Stereo
✔ Multiple Cockpit Speakers
✔ Convenient Helm-Area Controls

Pair your phone, put on your favorite playlist, and you're ready for a day at the sandbar.

Comfortable Captain's Helm

The driver's station provides excellent visibility while keeping instrumentation, electronics, and controls within easy reach.

Helm Highlights:

✔ Full Analog Instrumentation
✔ Large Speedometer
✔ Tachometer
✔ Trim Gauge
✔ Fuel Gauge
✔ Voltage Gauge
✔ Engine Temperature Gauge
✔ Oil Pressure Gauge
✔ Volvo Penta Controls
✔ Lowrance HDS 7
✔ Tinted Windscreen
✔ Comfortable Captain's Chair

The straightforward layout makes the boat easy to operate whether you're an experienced boater or purchasing your first family boat.

Storage Everywhere

One of the advantages of a deckboat is the amount of storage that can be incorporated throughout the interior.

There's room for fishing equipment, life jackets, towels, coolers, watersports gear, and everything else needed for an entire day on the lake.

Storage Highlights:

✔ Multiple Bow Compartments
✔ Under-Seat Storage
✔ Fishing Gear Storage
✔ Cockpit Storage
✔ Large Rear Storage Areas
✔ Easy-Access Compartments
✔ Plenty of Room for Family Gear

Instead of having equipment piled around the cockpit, everything can have its place.

Trailer Included

Included with the sale is the Starcraft-branded trailer, making this a complete boat, motor, drive, and trailer package.

Trailer Benefits:

✔ Trailer Included
✔ Starcraft-Branded Trailer
✔ Easy Transportation
✔ Convenient Launching & Retrieval
✔ Winter Storage Flexibility
✔ Ability to Explore Multiple Lakes

Hook it up and take the boat wherever the weekend leads you.

Why This Starcraft Stands Out

Finding a clean deckboat that can legitimately serve as both a family recreational boat and fishing boat isn't easy.

This Starcraft combines:

✔ Volvo Penta 4.3L V6 I/O
✔ 12-Person Capacity
✔ Minn Kota PowerDrive V2
✔ Lowrance HDS 7
✔ Elevated Bow Fishing Seat
✔ Large Forward Fishing Platform
✔ Exceptionally Clean Upholstery
✔ Huge Integrated Swim Platform
✔ Bimini Top
✔ Removable Table
✔ Jensen Bluetooth Marine Stereo
✔ Spacious Wraparound Seating
✔ Tons of Storage
✔ Trailer Included

It's the kind of boat that adapts to whatever you decide to do that day instead of limiting you to one style of boating.

One Boat That Can Do It All

This Starcraft is equally at home:

• Bass Fishing
• Walleye Fishing
• Panfishing
• Trolling
• Family Cruising
• Tubing
• Swimming
• Watersports
• Sandbar Afternoons
• Entertaining Friends
• Exploring New Lakes
• Evening Sunset Cruises

Fish at sunrise. Take the family cruising after lunch. Pull a tube in the afternoon. Drop anchor at the sandbar. Finish the day with a sunset cruise.

That's exactly what a great deckboat is supposed to do.

Sun Sport Marine Inspection

Like every boat we sell at Sun Sport Marine, this Starcraft has been thoroughly inspected by our service department before being offered for sale.

If you're considering a Hurricane, Sea Ray SunDeck, Chaparral Sunesta, Four Winns, Crownline, Bayliner, Glastron, Stingray, Tahoe, or other fiberglass deckboat, this Starcraft 2000 Limited deserves to be on your list-especially if you want legitimate fishing capability without sacrificing the space and comfort of a family boat.

We pride ourselves on selling clean, mechanically sound boats so you can buy with confidence instead of dealing with the uncertainty that often comes with purchasing from a private seller.

The Bottom Line

This 2008 Starcraft 2000 Limited is exactly what makes deckboats so appealing: tons of room, huge passenger capacity, comfortable seating, a massive swim platform, and the versatility to enjoy virtually any activity on the lake.

But this particular boat takes things a step further.

With its Volvo Penta 4.3L V6, Minn Kota PowerDrive V2, Lowrance HDS 7, fishing station, 12-person capacity, exceptionally clean upholstery, Bluetooth stereo, Bimini top, removable table, huge swim platform, and included trailer, you're getting one boat that can legitimately replace both a fishing boat and a family runabout.
