I did the same thing and got the same info. I do not think some of the info is right. I know when I go to the DMV they hardly know what a boat is or anything about them

Well if for sure does not have a 15` beam and I do not think it weights 14 ton. Someone has put a vin# on this hodgepodge and is trying to sell it as a Chris Craft Stinger. The interior of the cockpit is all C/C and down in the cabin sez C/C. To be honest this thing is spooky. Looking out of the cockpit over the nose it looks like a Wellcraft as fast as the nose drops off. What a Mess!!!

Have heard Stingers had a major problem with rotted stringers. I would have a very extensive structural survey done on this boat if you are still considering buying it.
Maybe you should look around at some used Formulas instead.

The curved windsheild actually extends further forward. That is why the center ridge down the foredeck is notched allowing the windsheild to mount flush onto the deck. The foredeck aft of the windsheild then becomes part of the dash, making the dash deeper. That is why the CC guys think the dash looks so different.
