1966 Chris Craft 17' Super Sport

Slide into the driver’s seat and you’re greeted by that unmistakable vintage Chris-Craft feel: thick-rimmed wheel, chrome accents that catch the light, and gleaming mahogany that seems almost too pretty to get wet. The 17' Super Sport is small enough to handle solo at the dock, yet has the presence of a much larger classic. Low freeboard brings you close to the water, perfect for evening cruises where your wake glows in the setting sun. Windshield lines, hardware, and deck vents all scream mid‑60s style, giving you the kind of curb appeal that draws attention at every fuel dock and marina.

On these waters, the 17' Super Sport really shines. Its size makes it easy to trailer, launch, and store, which is ideal if you split time between different lakes or protected coastal stretches. The classic runabout footprint is perfect for quick hops to a waterside lunch spot or lazy loops along quiet shorelines. Shallow draft lets you explore coves and sandbars others avoid, while the compact length makes maneuvering in tighter marinas far less stressful. Between its practical footprint and head-turning woodwork, this is the kind of boat that fits seamlessly into a lifestyle built around relaxed, frequent days afloat.
