Vintage Bros Boat Sales is pleased to offer this beautifully restored 1957 20' Chris Craft Sportsman! This boat, U-20-506, is the 6th boat of 152 produced between 1957-59.
The value of this boat is that it is turn key and restored. You would spend multiples of the asking price to have it professionally restored.
HULL
The original bottom has been replaced with a no soak 3M5200 bottom in 5/21. It can go in the water dry (pictures available). The brightwork is beautiful with the correct blond deck highlights. The finish speaks for itself.
INTERIOR
The interior has been redone to the original, which was a turquoise blue in 1957. The contrast against the red-brown Chris Craft stain is striking. The steering wheel shows beautifully, and the gauges were restored by Kocian.
MECHANICAL
The vessel is powered by a Hercules ML rated at 145 hp! This motor was rebuilt and is estimated to have approximately 5 hours since rebuild. With all that torque, she scoots right along! The trailer is a road-worthy, dual axle Magic Tilt that fits the boat nicely.
OVERVIEW
This boat is arguably new sporting a rebuit power plant and a replacement bottom. Pride of ownership would be a natural. Call Jim @ 513 678 9379

Vintage Bros Boat Sales always recommends that any prospective purchaser either inspect the boat themselves or hire a third-party inspector to examine the boat as a contingency of purchase. Once these things are completed to the buyer's satisfaction the sale becomes final. It is the buyers right to waive all inspections. If a buyer choose to go this route they bare full responsibility for the choice made regarding the condition of the boat.
Vintage Bros. Boat Sales is happy to help in any prospective purchaser coordinate shipping. However, shipping is ultimately the responsibility of the purchaser not only in coordination but in payment of the service.
