Starting with a boat in great condition and purchased new in Cincinnati in 1959, it had just over 200 hours when I began the build. I completely stripped this 18' inboard ski boat down inside and out and performed a very high quality restoration with many upgrades over stock. I used all the same paint, sealers, caulk, and varnish products used by Chris Craft when the boat was built. I have all the original paperwork from when the boat was purchased new. I also have all the restoration receipts. I installed all new marine grade wiring and professionally built and upgraded the small block Chevy engine (283). It now has a roller cam, electronic ignition, alternator, new and better Edelbrock 4 barrel carburetor and base plate, and many other upgrades to make the engine perform better with greater reliability over stock. All new interior by the Upholstry Shop in Jamestown, NY. Trailer was stripped, upgraded, and painted with Raptor Guard truck bed liner, and I added custom tires and wheels. I have all material receipts exceeding the asking price, and this does not include my 12 months of labor to perform this build. The restoration on the gauges alone was $2,000. I also built the dash from mahogany and installed a high end stereo system. This is a serious boat for serious inquiries only. I also have pictures from when I purchased the boat and all the progress photos throughout the entire build. I have approximately $35,000 invested with the purchase of the boat, restoration, and trailer upgrade. This does not include any of my labor or paid labor I used during the restoration. I also have the lift I built to restore the boat. A full price offer will include the lift which I have about $1500 in. The boat has only been in the water about a dozen times since restored in 2018. I built it as a show piece, and it has not been in the water in 3 seasons. It's time for someone else to enjoy it.
