1979 Apollo Starfire

Nearing the end of the Apollo's boat building run, this 18' Starfire shows the company's commitment to building a good looking boat. The combination of the wood accents and metal flake paint make for a unique and eye catching vessel. 

This particular example came with a Mercruiser inboard outboard setup and likely the Ford 302 engine. The Ford 5.0L setup was known as the 888 and was marketed as producing 188 horsepower. The 888 outdrive was an early predecessor to the Alpha outdrives that are commonly used today.
