1978 Chris Craft Catalina 280

1978 Chris Craft Catalina 280 Description Selling our 1978 Chris Craft 280. This is our 3rd season, previous owner had for 20 plus yrs. Wife took on a new job and we won't be using enough. Currently in the water in Monroe Mi. (yes, went out and got Walleye 2 days ago). It is a single screw with a Marine Power 305K with a Paragon transmission, both in good working condition. Has the original Chris Craft mufflers so it sounds great! One of the mufflers (silencer) is mounted to the stringer, the other is just next to it. This is a straight inboard with a nice brass prop and rudder. New Edelbrock marine carb installed last year along with a new Simrad through-hull transducer which is companion to my newLowrance HDS7 which will be included with Buy it Now ONLY.Two new batteries last year. Working shore power, bluetooth stereo, refrigerator, microwave and battery charger. It has a full canvas enclosure which makes for nice weekend get aways! The hot water tank was original and in poor shape so it was removed and not replaced. The fresh water system is not operational and the head we just never used so that may or may not need work, same with the alcohol stove. Working ship to shore radio, all safety equipment included. Sleeps six people, large deck space so a great boat to fish out of and handles Lake Erie well. The hull is solid with only some repairable "nose rash" (pictured). Bottom was painted with anti-fouling paint last two seasons, teak swim platform and drop down ladder both in good shape. There is NO trailer available.

$200 non refundable immediate deposit required, balance to be paid in cash.Now that said, this is a 41 yr old boat, if you are looking for a maintenance free perfect boat this is NOT the boat for you! If you love Chris Crafts like we do and are looking for a solid running boat that you could use today and update tomorrow then this it. Sorry for the dirty deck, haven't done spring cleaning yet!
