1950 Chris Craft 23ft Holiday – SOLD
$50,000.001950 Chris Craft 23ft Holiday.
Chris Craft was founded in the late 19th century by Chris Smith and became famous for its mahogany hulled powerboats from the 1920’s through the 1950’s. They built many different sizes and types of boats ranging from utility style to full race boats.
This Chris Craft is 1 of 88 23′ Holidays that the company built from 1950-1952. The hull # is H-23-005, making it one of the first few 23’ Holiday’s built. The boat is powered by a Marine Power 260 hp engine with a Holley carburetor. The engine has only 70.5 hours on it and had a complete tune up in 2016.
This boat features a no soaking epoxy bottom that is in excellent condition. In the winter of 2018/2019 the decks, coverboards, and transom were stripped, stained and re-varnished by Sierra Boat. This boat came to Sierra Boat in the spring of 2016 and has been kept in a slip for each summer season including now where it currently resides.
The combination of blonde and dark rich Philippine mahogany, teak floors and perfect plush red upholstery is truly a must see!

1964 Century 17ft Ski Dart
$9,450.001964 Century 17ft Ski Dart “Tweeter”
The Century Ski Dart ski boat was the prototype of the Ski Nautique and MasterCraft’s flat hull ski boat design. In 1964 they made only 60 Ski Darts with this being the 44th boat they built that year. The 180 hp Ford Interceptor V8 engine sends the boat thru the water at about 35 mph making it an excellent ski boat. The boat is 17’3’’ in length with a 6’11’’ wide beam and a center engine housing making it easy to walk around or to store a ski or swim ladder.
The sellers of this 1964 Century 17ft Ski Dart are the second owners. They purchased the boat in May of 1974 from the original owners who named the boat “Tweeter” after their last name, Birdsong. The boat has never been off Lake Tahoe and has been meticulously maintained and stored at Sierra Boat Co. since 1974. Sierra Boat has all records of work done to this boat.
Tweeter received a second-place trophy at the 2018 Lake Tahoe Concours d’Elegance and it has been said to be the only Century Ski Dart on Lake Tahoe!

1954 Chris Craft 24ft Holiday
$59,500.001954 Chris Craft 24ft Holiday.
The large Holiday series started out at 23′. In 1954 they reversed the rake of the transom and gained another foot of length giving the model more interior space. The Holiday was the more upscale model to the basic 22′ Sportsman. It features two toned red and blond stained mahogany and a steeply raked windshield. The interior has plush, deeply upholstered seats and teak flooring. The middle seat was standard for this model. These were the first of the Chris Craft runabouts to feature the “clipper bow” or ‘bullnose” styling to the stem. This feature was adopted for all models in the 1955 model year. While some might confuse this model with the later Continental series, they are a very different boat in all regards. In our experience, they handle and ride much better due to a narrower bottom.
This example has had extensive restoration work done. Sierra Boat completed the restoration, started by another shop, and has fully sorted the boat out. The bottom is a 5200 type, with no leaks. The engine is a 175 HP Chris Craft MCL model, overhauled in 2013, which is a later version of the original 158 HP MBL. It has more horsepower and 12-volt electrics.
The boat has been shown at the Lake Tahoe Concours d’ Elegance where she garnered a 2nd place in class.
This is a perfect boat for Tahoe with seating for 9 people and the size to handle Tahoe’s rough water.
It comes with extensive equipment including a new waterline cover and a custom built tandem axle trailer.

$20,000.001955 Chris Craft 20ft Continental.
Fully restored in the late 80’s but never used, the boats varnish is in stunning condition and looks like it just came out of the shop. It features modern V-8 power from a Pleasurecraft 225 hp 502 Ford engine. The bottom is epoxy glassed but is in need of repairs. The decks were fully replaced and are glued to a plywood substrate. 20ft Continentals don’t come up for sale very often as only 221 were built between 1955 and 1957. Early examples like this one have the raked windshield that everyone desires. This is a perfect size boat, not too big, not too small for Lake Tahoe!

These late Continentals are very popular due to the fact that they are the last of the full wood decked boats but feature the newly available 283 Chevrolet based engines. This makes for an excellent ski boat, with plenty of horsepower, unlike earlier models that had an anemic flathead six.
This example is an older restoration, but the important work is still solid. It features a west system, full epoxy glued bottom for leak-free launching. In 1992 the engine was upgraded to a high performance 350 block, making over 260 hp. It comes on a custom fitted tandem axle trailer. The upholstery is in good condition and was done to the original pattern.
