Check Out This Beautiful 1956 Chris Craft Capri 19' Runabout!
Imagine the looks of love you will get every day on the water in this beautiful 1956 Chris Craft Capri; her classic lines and beautiful two-tone blonde and red mahogany woods are sure to catch the eyes of all who see her.
The Chris Craft boat company dates back to 1874 and continues today. Many classic movies, like On Golden Pond, include Chris Craft mahogany boats. More than any other brand, Chris Craft is responsible for America's love and romance with boats.
The classic Chris Craft mahogany boats are known for their quality; they were crafted with meticulous detail by the most skilled carpenters in the business.
Chris Craft built the Capri from 1955-1958, and they made less than 800 of this popular model.
This 19' Capri is close to original. The molded Corvette style windshield set off the fifties style; the cockpit features all the original gauges and steering wheel, which adds to the visual impact of this great-looking classic boat.
She has two sizeable eye-catching bench seats that make a statement with red, black, and white upholstery.
She has beautiful bright chrome touches from bow to stern and black alligator accents in the cockpit, which adds to this vintage beauty's coolness factor!
She has her original Chris Craft 6 cylinder KBL engine.
The trailer is not included.
Condition: This girl looks impressive at sixty-five years old!
The current owner purchased her in 1975 from the original owner.
As good as she looks, she has not been detailed.
The varnish on the two-tone mahogany deck and hull still shine. There is an area of wood damage on the starboard gunnel that needs to be repaired.
The gages are clear and easy to read; the owner believes they are still functional.
The bench seat upholstery was updated appx 2008, and the alligator trim is in excellent condition.
The chrome hardware and chrome accents still look great, but they will gleam after a good clean and polish.
The new Buyer should verify all specs during the
due diligence process.
This runabout has been stored with her boat cover on and hasn't seen the water for many years.
It is time for a new owner to get her back on the water and let her live again. With a bit of love, this girl could be ready for a magazine cover!
