A diamond in the rough for someone who appreciates woody boats, “The Belle” is waiting for someone to bring her original details back to head turning condition.
Manufactured by Chris Craft’s Cavalier division in Chattanooga, Tennessee, the hull of this vintage inboard cruiser is constructed of through bolted lapstrake plywood.
The retro cabin includes a galley with stove, refrigerator, wood paneled head, generous V berth and convertible dinette.
Beautiful solid wood and chrome details abound above deck, though TLC is needed to make them shine. Rot is visible in the starboard cockpit wall, cabin roof overhang and window framing.
Newer electrical system, manuals, and original manufacturer documentation packet.
The Belle was in use as recently as July, but we have no knowledge regarding recent maintenance or system performance and make no guarantees of any kind regarding her condition. No inspection/survey has been done by sellers and this is an “as-is” sale.
Seller does not warranty the condition of the stove, refrigerator, head, engine or any other system on the boat. Purchaser must rely upon Purchaser's inspection of the boat.
