Grew up on Conesus Lake in Upstate N.Y. A Buddy of mine's Grandma gave him a 58 just like this. For his 16th birthday. Sure does bring back Great Memories. Ice cold Molson's and Long Point Park.
We had the exact same boat! 1955 Chris Craft Continental 440 w/Holley 4 bbl. That girl would SCOOT!!! Moved from Lake Guntersville to Smith Lake! Miss that boat! Girls always wanted a 'ride'!
My brother Casper had this same exact boat, but it was a 23ft 1957 Chris Craft Continental Runabout ! From Buffalo Ny, After he passed away, i heard the boat was sold to someone in New England ! Was a awesome boat just like this on !
this Buffalo boy still recalls his Uncle Vern's 1961 Thompson Sea Lancer , it was $2K new , but took something like $30K to restore it ... but worth every penny !!!
