Chris Craft

This is an excellent unmolested 20 1954 Chris Craft Deluxe Sportsman. It was purchased from the 2nd owner that stored the boat indoors. The boat spent its entire life on Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri. We purchased the boat about 3 years ago and stripped it and found the boat to be in excellent condition with no evidence of any damage or rot. The boat has its original bottom planking in extremely good condition. The boat is complete less the engine block which unfortunetly was not repairable. This boat deserves the complete restoration it needs. Our family was a Chris Craft dealer during the wooden boat period and I grew up around these boats, this is an excellent and highly desirable classic wooden Chris Craft built at the pinnacle of hand built wood boats.We restore award winning classic cars and we had hoped to be able to include this incredible boat in our collection but we are at least two years away from being able to devote the time necessary to begin its restoration and just feel as though the boat deserves an owner that has the time to restore it and enjoy the boat on the water.The boat is sold on a Bill of Sale.The trailer goes with the boat.
