In 1958, my grandfather bought a new 23 LYMAN. We boated all over Biscayne Bay, Miami. He named it FLAPPER. I WAS TEN, it was huge.

I like the sound of a CrisCraft with a Gray Marine split manifold 6 idling when the pipes will with water and the exhaust gas blows the water out and the sound is fantastic.

@beverlyhart9004 10 ай бұрын

I'm a year late, but my condolences on the passing of your father. My father was born in 1916, and his love of boats began with Chris Craft and remained the same. My dad was one of those people who could do anything. He'd go to the coast after a hurricane and buy salvaged boats to rebuild. I've done my share of scraping barnacles and washing down boats as well. God bless the person who invented power washers. My dad and I were the sailors in the family. Mother never wanted to be in, or on the water; my older brother and younger brothers loved cars. Dad was born in Baltimore, MD and his family moved to Miami, FL where he was on the water as much as possible. His best friend was the son of a famous gangster and dad said transportation to and from the island compound was done on a Chris Craft, with the guards having machine guns. Dad died in 1990, and I wish I had paid more attention to what he was doing and how. I love sailing but, due to back problems, had to give that up a couple of years ago. I am preparing to retire. I live in the Dallas-Ft Worth area and my daughter lives in Houston. Instead of buying a house in Houston, I'm going to buy a boat to live aboard. If she decides to move out of Houston, I only have to move the boat to a lake close to her. She's not too happy about her mom living on a boat, but she'll get used to it...or not. I've begun the search and am pretty annoyed at the condition of some of the boats. Golly. Take care of yourself and boat on. Beverly

I grew up around lakes and did a lot a skiing. A friend's father and his neighbor had Cris Craft boats. Those things were great to ski behind. Easily pull 4 of us up out of the water. I remember watching some Cypress Garden water shows on TV and they were using Cris Craft and had at least 8 young ladies behind the boat making towers. Great boats, minimal wake and plenty of power.

These all-wood pleasure craft were built from the 1920s until about the mid 1950s. At that time fiberglass boats began making their debut that customers liked because they required much less maintenance. The three main manufacturers of these beautiful treasures were Chris Craft, Hacker-Craft and Garwood Boats and all had their facilities in the Detroit area. The boats were tested in the Detroit River that has been famous for unlimited class racing for over 100 years. All three companies designed their boats with a similar look, and all were of the highest quality. Up until about the 1990s you could find these boats in various degrees of disrepair in storage sheds and barns throughout the Great Lakes Region and elsewhere. Today, some companies have produced replications of these all-wood boats, but none that compare to the originals. Note: you made a comment about how the steering wheels of the boats looked so much like automobile steering wheels. Well, that's because they were. After all, the boats were crafted in Detroit and just about every automobile in the day was manufactured there as well.
