BOAT SUMMARY

Sunset cruises feel different in this Beauty. Looking for a “new to you” watercraft? Look no further than the Nauti-Girl. This 17’ 1959 Chris-Craft Sportsman. Solid mahogany planking hull with matching grains. The details continue on the bow with a shiny chrome light assembly and Chris-Craft flag. The windshield is a framed, curved plexiglass windshield. The Nauti-Girl was fully restored to better than original condition from 2007-2010 by Steve Blanchard of Blanchard Boats in north Georgia. Anyone that knows Steve or his reputation knows the boats are worth well more than any sales price will reflect. I am happy to share all notes, details and photos from the restoration as well as a copy of the Chris-Craft Runabout Equipment Record for this vessel from the Mariners’ Museum in Newport News VA. The Nauti-Girl is a head turner wherever she goes. Sale includes 2009 Karavan Boat Trailer Model US-4150-DB12-78-ST-BL and custom canvas cover. Delivery can be arranged via a professional Transporter. A great trailer for midsized boats, Karavan’s QuietTow™ and SwayControl™ engineering ensure superior road performance, and smart lighting and wheel bearing systems provide built-in reliability. It has an attractive aluminum design. The model 4150 weighs 857 pounds and includes trailer brakes. The interior is highlighted by the white steering wheel and the classic controls and gauges. All gauges and hardware were re-chromed during the restoration. The windshield was replaced with a new plexiglass one that is super vivid. Upholstery is red vinyl with white piping. Bench seating is offered at the stern with room for three (3) and the forward seating is another bench with seating for two (2) to three (3). There is ample space for storage items (anchor, life jackets, oar, fire extinguisher - all included) under the bow and alongside the seating. Access to wiring and controls is under the dash. 1959 Chris-Craft Sportsman 17’ For Sale Motor: 283 Chevy 185HP HIN:#CUA-17-022 Chris-Craft was founded in 1874 by Christopher Smith in Detroit, Michigan.
