Hey Everyone!

Not posted here for a while but i am fishing for information about a boat i bought at the beggining of summer.

When i have looked up Pro Craft on the internet there are plenty of fmaily fishing boats but not the one we have.

It is a 2000 Tournament ski boat (but also great for wakeboarding behind =P) by Quatra Ski it was made by Peter Fisher....Jodi Fisher's dad and has a mercruiser 350 Magnum v8 with fuel injection, 315 Horsepower and a 4 blade prop.

Any one know any thing about this boat?

(Ill try and inlcude a picture!)

Thanks Guys! Upload

That looks like an 87-90 Mastercraft prostar, I mean identical to it.

It looks more like a 83-86 to me. The windshield, engine cover and overall lines look more like my old 84.

100% sure It's an old MC Prostar... Don't know what it's doing with someone else's stickers on it though.

'85 Prostar

It's a procraft. I have seen a couple of them in the past. Probably they bought the old molds from mc

But it's a model year 2000? Wow, nice boat, but for 2000, that would definately look dated.

Mike, I agree.

Maybe that is what they called that series and she is unsure of the year.....

April, since you are in England, there must be some kind of licensing arrangement for production in Europe between MC and ProCraft. Either that or it is a direct knock-off (copy) of MasterCraft's model. You should be able to get lots of information on the MasterCraft ProStar and it should all apply.

What are you trying to find out?

roxy_babe 12-08-2006, 10:10 AM

just where this boat has orginated from because all the pro crafts ive seen are fishing boats

Where's the pic taken, it dosen't look like southport.

roxy_babe 12-09-2006, 12:18 PM

Our private lake
where did you get the idea of southport from?

MB was making boats out of old MasterCraft prostar 190 molds not that long ago. Procraft probably just got hold of an old MC and pulled a mold off of it. It looks like they changed a few things ie; top deck vent placement, so it wouldnt be an exact copy.

yeah, it is very similar apart from some changes but the dash is totally different!

If you look at the back of the Pro-Craft, you see MBC 29. The Hull ID for all MC's start with MBC (Mastercraft Boat Company). Coincidence???

Yeah April your profile says home lake is Southport, which I was taking as being the saltwater one on the seafront. I've been there once or twice with a friend who lives in the area but I hate the taste of salt water and its shallow enough to bang your head on the bottem.

Additionally, the tooling for the motor box is the exact same on both of them (including the vinyl patterning)...

roxy_babe 12-10-2006, 1:40 PM

yeah i hate southport too but my auntie and uncle own the place sooo....free ride! MBC 29 is the registration number for a lake in lincoln (people who previously owned it)

I also looks identical to my first boat - 1988 Marlin Magnum Skier which I was told was shot from the mold of the 1986 MasterCraft Prostar 190.
