On its 150th anniversary, Chris-Craft is set to unveil a special edition of the Chris-Craft 27 Launch at the Miami International Boat Show. Founded in 1874 by Christopher Columbus Smith in Algonac, Michigan, the brand is renowned for its craftsmanship and timeless style.
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the 150th anniversary edition features a striking silvery-gray hull accented by a signature aquamarine boot stripe.
Stepping aboard, you'll notice the hand-stitched, embossed leather steering wheel with a commemorative center hub, alongside a chart plotter boasting a special 150th Anniversary welcome screen.
The Launch 27, with its chrome-framed curved windscreen and sleek silhouette, pays homage to Chris-Craft's rich heritage. While the brand has expanded its offerings to include outboard-powered center consoles, the classic Launch 27 continues to captivate with its elegant design.
Starting at USD $300,000, the 150th Anniversary edition offers Mercury's 430hp 8.2-liter V8 engine, resulting in the exquisite vessel boasting a top speed of approximately 50 knots. With its LOA of 8.1m (26.8ft) and a beam of 2.6m (8.6ft) complemented by the full teak-and-leather Heritage package, the 27 Launch is sure to deliver an unforgettable experience on the water.
