1962 Chris-Craft Constellation11m

LOVINGLY RESTORED AND UPGRADED CLASSIC WOOD CHRIS CRAFT!

Twin Chevy 283 engines (approx. 800 hours) provide the power to explore, while the 400 Ah battery bank and Kohler 7.5 Generator allows for multi-day off-the-grid adventures. All original documentation and electrical diagrams still onboard. Currently residing in a protected covered berth near Isleton, California, this beauty is in remarkable condition. Recent survey (November 2020) available.

Roomy forward sundeck and bow seating, covered aft deck/lounge area, well-appointed galley, large salon and two heads make this the perfect vessel for families or entertaining. Full beam owner’s suite features two beds, a private head, large hanging closet, full-size dresser and under-bed storage drawers. Bow stateroom offers 2 more berths, and dinette converts to additional sleep space. Original mahogany interior with all new carpet and flooring.
