How many 415 stingers were made?
 

Just curious.....

4137...........just a guess......hehe

Hull numbers include a code that is the labelled as "hull number" which I read a the number of hulls built. I'm not 100% sure that this is number of hulls built for a particular model, but I believe it is. On my website, the Stinger registry has two hull numbers for 415s - according to the hull numbers there were at least 119 415s built? Also interesting is it looks like the 415s may have been built in two of Chris Craft's plants - one in Bellingham, WA and one in Sarasota (Bradenton), FL.

The 415 I recently purchased was built in WA.

I was curious about production numbers, because I have never seen one out on the water. Also very little info about them on the web.

I was curious what power upgrades folks were doing and the speeds they were achieving.

The plan is to supercharge a couple of HP500's and see what we end up with. Hopefully the Trannies and TRS's can handle that kind of power.

Is this the same hull as the 40 Excalibur Hawk?

Kreed,

I have heard that it is, but I do not know for a fact. It's got to be heavier than a 40' Excalibur, though.

The title lists it as almost 13,000 lbs.

Greg

it is the same, but it has 1 extension on each side of the transom molded on !!! to make it a 45 and the deck is higher on the sides !!!!

Yea, the Hawk I bought does not weigh that much. I think about 11K. But I just bought it a couple months ago. If you go into the Excalibur forum, under 40 Excalibur Hawk totally updated. Just to give you an idea of power and speeds.

Chris Craft brochures state the weight as 12,780lbs.

I don't think it's the Excalibur hull - I believe the 390x was built off of the 40' Excalibur hull. The 390x has an 8' beam. The 415 has a 9' beam. Also, the 390x has no port-holes in the hull where the 415 does.
