Description

This Chris Craft Gentlemen's Racer is inspired by then Jersey speed skiff. When completed it won Best Vintage Race Boat at the St. Michaels boat show in Chesapeake Bay. After that it went to shows and a museum display and used very little. Its powered by a Chris Craft 283 with 3-pass exhaust manifolds, flywheel driven water pump, and hard to find aluminum intake manifold. Perched on top is the period Rochester 4 jet carb with the very cool dual Bendix/ Zenith chrome flame arrestors, and Paragon transmission. The boat runs and sounds as good as it looks..
