That is one beautiful classic Chris Craft. It's got to be the largest sun pad I've ever seen -- it looks like three ladies could lay on it simultaneously. I'd love to see pics of the cabin area. Do you know where this boat was built?

Engine hatch has changed. Two separately hatch changed to one wich open back. Also sun pad padding was thicker than orginal.
Boat was built in Bradenton (Sarasota).

Not really an offshore, but.. My grandfathers boat pulled out of storage and loaded onto the trailer..He passed away last month and left the boat to me and my Father. We are doing a full teardown and resto on it.. Im amazed it floated, so many rotten holes in it!

Shootitup, that's a beautiful cabin -- it looks completely redone. I like the mirror on the ceiling -- seems like I saw that on some late 80s Mirage 28 footers. The chrome posts are a nice touch.

Zimm, that's a very well preserved classic there, wow.

Waterboy, my wife would like your boat for day cruising, because of the hard top and the huge cockpit area. You sure don't see many of those around anymore.
