You appear to have not only the facilities but the skill and knowledge to do this type of work and do it properly . Also , IMO , you've done it methodically and in the correct order using the right materials for a long lasting result. (And tastefully done as well )
I've forgotten how many rebuild/resto threads I've seen where the guy hasn't got a clue and everyone is fawning over the work saying 'great job' or 'nice work' when it actually sux big time .
I can't wait to see pics of it running and the huge smile on your face.
Very well done !

Such a beautiful boat I love chris craft boats so worth the work by the looks of it I have a 245 limited and want to undergo a complete over haul like that I was thinking it would be cool to go twin engine and you basically did the opposite that was amazing work! And it turned out so nice

Looking very nice/super clean !
One worry though. That rear support cradle .. Does where the feet fall line up perfectly with stringers inside ?
If not I'd support it on the keel . After all this you don't want to be putting hooks in your bottom .
