Chris Craft 300

Gorgeous vintagerestored Chris Craft for sale. With the beautiful rounded stern, this is considered a pre barrel back design.The engine was rebuilt in 2019. This boat has minimal water time since restoration. Features a new gas tank liner, rebuilt starter, carburetor, and 12 volt upgrade. Excellent high gloss varnish with museum quality finish. An experienced restored may find a minor blemish to paint or varnish, but I would rate the finish as 96 out of 100. Less than 10 hours on rebuilt engine. This boat has a rare numbers matching original Chrysler 4 cylinder 55 HP engine. Many of the 1932 Chris crafts were supplied withGray marine or Hercules engines in 1932. A strike in 1932 turned Chris Craft to a short run of Chrysler engines. The Chrysler enginewas considered a far superior engine to theprevious marine engines and easily out preformed the other engines in durability and speed.Chris Craft advertised a top speed of 32 mph, although with a rebuild that exceeded the 1932 standards, I suspect this boat may go faster than that and the horse powerprobably exceeds55 HP.No expense spared in the2019 rebuild.

I have spent justunder $9,000.00 on theengine rebuild alone.Great oil pressure of 32 lbs at idle. This engine really jumps this light boat up to full plane in seconds.
