A Chris Craft Speedster !!! :D It's sort of a Marauder for water sports. Saw one back in January and have had that same aching feeling that I experienced the first time I saw the Marauder. I think this "toy" would really supplement my grin factor. :woohoo:

Nice lines! If it's gasoline best use it or run the engine every 2 weeks. :D

The smaller Chris Craft boats always look good. I like that rear deck look.

Standard power is a Volvo 4.3L GXi, 225 Hp. Optional power is a 5.0L Mercruiser, 260 Hp (add $1,500.00). Little to no difference on top end speed because of the weight difference. Both rate out at about 54.3 mph @ 4800 RPM. :burnout:

I like that rear deck look.
The swim platform and trim is all teak wood under the Heritage package. Very nice. :D

Um, Charlie? That's not an Aviator. :eek:

The two greatest days in the life of a boat owner: the day he buys it, and the day he sells it.:rofl:

Hey guys .... I am looking for some support here !! :D I get enough of the non-support at home. :rofl:

P.S. Five-O --- 54 mph on water is fast enough for me. I have been airborne once .... I didn't like it at all !!!! :rolleyes:
