One of the most exquisitely restored classic yachts on the market, the ultra rare "Black Beauty" is the only Futura of 118 built that left the factory with a black hull. Custom built for the son of a Chris-Craft dealer, the Futura has design features that set the standard for years to follow, including a rakish, convex-curve clipper bow, a low-profile cabin, a prominent visor, and magnificent teak tecks and cockpit sole. No expense spared during a 16 year complete professional restoration of the entire boat including all planks and fasteners, all hardware, all electrical, all glass, new fuel tanks and exhaust, new Crusader engines w/Velvet Drive gearboxes, custom galley & head, canvas, and stunning refinished teak decks and mahogany trim. A very rare ownership opportunity, a one-of-a-kind boat for the very discerning collector or classic yacht enthusiast. Reasonable offers considered. Great megayacht tender!
