only 2 8 meters that I am aware of, Maverek and mine
they guy who owned maverek moved to traverse city and started building boats. In fact I saw one at the Duseldorf Boat Show. He had a bad accident with his old 8 meter on lake st clair and a person died.

Bob I stand coerected, Lee sent me some new CC pic's there were two metal flake Chris Crafts out of Lake St Clairs Blue Lagon, I thought there was, but it has been some time ago. Plus Baums white Maverick were all here on the lake. P-700 was CC Rider, P-800 was ORANGE JULIUS. Last year one was for sale here that was white, it might have been a repainted CC Rider ?????
