A true Barn find. Just down the lake... Saw this boat in the water in the late 70's. went in once a year for a day trip. Rarely used Extremely well stored inside a garage . and also well tarped with ventilation on trailer. Properly winterised as well. i bought it from the family estate after owner passed and want it to go to a happy new owner...IA True Barn /Garage find. This lovely 1961 Chris Craft Ski boat was owned and used by the owner very few times in the last 40 years in Canada on the St Lawrence River. The owner took her out maybe once or twice since he had owned it. As a neighbor growing up, I had always mentioned to the gentleman that I would love to buy his boat one day. As it was rarely used and extremely well stored inside his garage it was almost forgotten . . It was properly winterized as well. I finally bought it from the family estate after owner passed away in the past year. As myself have aged along with the Boat I have decided to sell as is. The boat was probably not taken outside for the last 25-30 years. Everything is like it was in the 70/80’s Nothing has changed. All is original and Complete. As you can see in the photos the bottom still has the original varnish on the inner plywood bottom and covered in plank on the outside… The boat is very original. A great lime green canvas custom tarp. (great tent smell). On a dual trailer . situated close to the Ny Vermont Border and Ontario as well in the South west of Quebec Canada.
