1957 Chris-Craft 20' Holiday

Description

Thank you for your interest in this boat.

This is a 1957 Chris Craft 20' Holiday that was restored in 2016. The boat was totally disassembled and restored and refinished by an experienced and professional shipwright. This year I refinished the top and hull with Pettit Captain’s varnish. This Chris Craft Holiday is hull number HY-20-124 and was ordered from the factory with the optional 175HP MCL Code Engine option. (see invoices for scope of work). I have put 2 hours on the craft since its delivery back here. After rebuilding the carbs last fall, it runs well. This is a dry bottom, 3M 5200 bottom.

Entire bottom replaced in 2016. 3M 5200 on top of ¼” marine grade mahogany plywood, with mahogany bottom installed over such.
Stripped & Varnished inside and out.

Over $22,000 invested in this restoration
The boat is available for inspection most any day throughout the week, just email me and I will respond.
Boat comes with a home-made trailer, made in 1989, tagged and titled in NC. Trailer has a 2" hitch and has new tires and bearings with less than 500 miles on both.

The boat is available for local pickup. Delivery is an option. It is currently in Lake Wylie, SC.
There are only a few detractors: Motor leaks oil. The upholstery was not addressed and shows some minor wear. Small crack in bottom corner of windshield. Crack in mahogany top near starboard rear footpad from a misstep.

This is a quality Chris-Craft Holiday, that looks great. I am a motivated seller. My original asking price was $22,000. I have now reduced that to $19,500. Thank you for your interest!

I unconditionally guarantee your satisfaction at delivery. If you do not like the boat at delivery, you get your deposit back on the spot. Once you take possession, the boat is yours, as is, where is. I have a perfect feedback score that I have worked very hard to keep. This is a great boat, I am sure you will be pleased. I reserve the right to cancel this auction at any time as the boat is for sale locally and on other applications/ websites.
