1936 Chris Craft 16ft Special Race Boat
The Chris Craft Special Race Boat was the first of the famous Barrel Back designs from Chris Craft. Most of them were painted red, white, and blue. Very fast in their day with a 121 hp KB flathead six, this one is even faster.
As a longtime Sierra Boat customer, he had a thing for small fast boats, and in the early 70’s a 365 cu in Cadillac V8 was shoehorned into her engine bay. This is not a show boat, but a fun vintage hotrod. An older restoration, much of the work was done in the early 90’s including a new deck and engine rebuild. The heavy duty fiberglass bottom was done in the 70’s for extra strength.

2015 Pedrazzini 34ft Special
$525,000.00This is a very rare 2015 Pedrazzini 34ft Special.
Pedrazzini makes boats that harmoniously blend Mediterranean allure and Swiss precision with the elegant design of the 1950s. They are crafted from the most exquisite materials with great skill and extreme patience. Pedrazzini has been committed to the art of boatbuilding for over 100 years. As in the good old days, the company’s mahogany runabouts are crafted by hand. Step by step, the individual elements are meticulously finished and assembled. It can take up to nine months to complete a single runabout. Each boat that leaves the yard reflects Pedrazzini’s dedication to quality, attention to detail, and flair for timelessly elegant styling.
The Special runabout is the most elegant way for mahogany to caress water. With its 34ft in length, the Special is Pedrazzini’s largest runabout. It is a majestic craft that accelerates with power and poise. The Special V-shaped hull assures sensational handling. This runabout tracks true even at high speeds and in the tightest of turns. A rich complement of appealing and carefully crafted amenities creates an exclusive on-board ambiance.
The Pedrazzini featured here was purchased new by the owner and was shipped from Switzerland. It has only been used on Lake Tahoe and has only been serviced by Sierra Boat Company. Like the more famous Riva Aquarama, the Pedrazzini Special is a highly crafted mahogany boat that is perfectly suited for Lake Tahoe.
