My synthetic teak deck is no hotter than the original Chris Craft taupe color decking which is adjacent.
Hello Bob, Welcome to YachtForums. I agree with Lars. Its pretty tough stuff. I have Flexiteek on my boat and I like it a lot. I had it down for...
It was probably this one: A 53' 1967 then called "Coloneh" by her original owner. Subsequently called "Tir Na Nog", now "Lady J". She is still in...
I like it. I have to admit that my eye tends toward traditional conservative lines. I find your design interesting and nicely balanced. Keep drawing!
Me too. I agree totally. Good work Carl. FWIW, I really like the voice/text entry on my Motorola Droid 2. I have the fattest of fat fingers.
Sad to see her go, but it was probably for the best. It looks like she had become more habitat than yacht.
The yacht "Magenta" you're looking for was O/N 228389 according to Lloyds Register from 1959. There is no active info on that Doc # in any...
Classic ELCO lost in marina blaze Tragically, the beautiful Classic "Hermione" was lost in a shed fire at a Washington NC marina. In the early...
Perhaps if she's still there toward Spring, it would make sense to go back to her. When a seller's boat is winterized, it is the buyer's expense...
Hello Gerry, Welcome to YachtForums. I have never seen a 34 Matthews in person. Only in photos. The 34 would be, I think, a wonderful boat for the...
I own a 1985 Chris 315 Commander and it has the same ignition switches. Off-On-Momentary/Start. They are not all that uncommon. I ran a 42 Bertram...
There were not many galley up 4 stateroom 501's built. I was aboard one a few years ago in Fort Lauderdale. I believe that they are mostly 1990...

Most wallpaper in yachts is a fabric backed vinyl, glued to (hopefully) primed plywood. Get a corner loose and it should pull right off. The...
She is a handsome yacht!
Except for all new machinery, we believe "Lieselotte" to be 100% original. She is the only Trumpy cruiser ever built with a centerline master...
The Vicem story is old news. Trumpy has a deal in place with a new builder. We loaned them our brokerage 58' Cruiser 1970 "Lieselotte" pictured...
Great pics! The third one that is colorized, looks to me like a different yacht. I sure love old historic photos of Classic Yachts!
Nice looking work! When I refit a 1981 Post 42 a few years back, I was shocked by the number of door/drawer pulls on that boat. As I recall, it...
Greetings breweraz, Welcome to YachtForums. I may have a sales brochure from 1985 and/or 1986 that has some boiler plate info from Chris...
