My wife and I are the 3rd owners of this awesome piece of vintage boating. These boats were Chris Craft's first series of fiberglass vessels. It is paired with the original 307 cubic inch 200 HP GM V8 and Volvo Penta 250 outdrive. Boat seats 6 with a 9 person max capacity. The front driver passenger seats unfold to make two beds or lounge chairs. We along with our dog would go and actually toss anchor and camp on the boat with this layout. I've slalomed, skied, tubed, wakeboarder, and wake skated behind the boat no problem. The boat is turn key ready. We purchased at the beginning of the season and the boat was in need of a lot of cosmetic TLC and some minor engine work (typical boat maintenance). Below is a list of items I have repaired and addressed;COSMETICRemoved and replaced all carpetRepaired 2 very small soft spots around hull storage lockerAll new upholstery which matches the original design of the boatRepairedaluminumrub rail and installed new OEM white rubber insertCleaned and treated teak ladders with mineral oilPolished and waxed hull and bowENGINE/OUTDRIVENew OEM Sherwood raw water pump and impeller (also has spare impeller on boat)2 new exhaust riser discharge housesOil change at beginning of season (after 30 hours of use oil is clean, and has not burned a drop)Replaced outdrive exhaust boot, drive boot, and S hoseDrained and changed outdrive oilInstalled new prop (old prop needs to be reworked)Navigation, anchor, and instrument lights all work.Starboardexhaustriser has external crackBilge pump is simple on/off and functions perfect.New deep cycle batteryFresh water onlyTRAILEROriginal trailer was single axel and was in need of many repairsPurchased and fitted a tandem axel trailerPacked bearingsInstalled 7 way trailer harnessNew LED brake lights and side markers4 brand new 8 ply trailer tires (1000 miles)Good spare tireBoat rides smoother with tandem axel and loading boat is a breeze with the deep v hullThe lancer comes with the following;Bimini Top and side plastic windowsFull cover with rods to keep water from poolingClear KY Title in handPlease call text or email me with any questions. My wife and I enjoy a good project and focus on the 60s and 70s motorcycles and boats. We bought this boat as it was on its way to point of no return and have turned it around and got her back on the water. This is your chance to have a gem of boating history that has classic lines and turns heads on and off the water. She is 44 years old and we did not set out to do a complete restoration but replaced only what we could match as close as possible and preserve her natural patina. I can send video of the boat starting and running.
