1956 Chris-Craft Sea Skiff 18'

1956 Chris-Craft Sea Skiff 18'

This Chris Craft was owned by a Lake George family from 1956 until 2007. For 51 years it was stored out of the water in an enclosed boathouse, lightly used and never left outdoors. In 2007 a father & son team purchased her from the original owners and began a three-year cosmetic and mechanical renovation including a complete engine rebuild. They chose dark & light blue colors for the hull and other components that were popular with early Lymans. Their goal was a reliable boat that can be used & enjoyed regularly, with original details carefully preserved. The deck, hull and stringers are 100% original and sound; they re-fastened the planks and freshened the brightwork. The original dark red upholstery, now 68 years old, is in amazing, as-new condition.

We became the caretakers of this special boat in 2018, named her Sancerre, and have gone through the engine, transmission, and details. Sancerre won 1st place for Best Original & Best Utility at the 35th Annual Antique & Classic Boat Show in Essex, CT.

Included custom fit ShoreLand’r tandem bunk trailer (as new, always garaged), new Sunbrella blue upholstery, Bimini top & side curtains, and full mooring cover.

Offered at $14,900.
