Nice aqua ride, but I guess I'm getting old. That background music drove me nuts. A few seconds of that and I had to "mute".

No shoes allowed! Did you notice the socks only? Not that I blame them, that is some pretty wood going on there. Sweet boat!

When the video first started I nearly closed it thinking...another great old classic, but then saw the 5.0 Volvo and i had to watch it to the end.

If you read the comments it took 6 people one year to build.

Went to the website, but my Austrian sucks!

Cool. At 47 I still must be young enough, cuz I kinda liked the music.

Looks like a very fun ride.......

Stunning, anyone notice it appears to be fiberglass below the waterline. Also the woodgrain along the hull is just amazing. Man...I got a big garage...I could build that....just need a few more tools...

Re: One of a kind

it is not uncommon to find the Chris Crafts, Correct Crafts and like, with a glassed bottom. in my opinion it devalues the boat.

also it is a shame he did not do the cosmetics per the original. the cheap steering wheel wheel really ruins it for me.
