2014 Chris-Craft Launch 22

Slide behind the wheel and you’ll feel how solid and reassuring this Launch 22 is, with that deep-V hull ready to slice through wake chop without rattles or drama. The wraparound cockpit seating keeps everyone in the conversation, and those signature flared bow lines help keep spray where it belongs—off your guests. High freeboard gives kids and adults alike a secure feel when moving around underway. Storage is surprisingly generous for a 22-footer, with dedicated spaces to tuck away lines, fenders, and gear so the decks stay clean. From the helm sightlines to the easy boarding from the swim platform, the layout feels thoughtfully dialed-in for relaxed, all-day use.

For this stretch of coastline and its mix of open water and sheltered coves, the Launch 22 hits a sweet spot. At 22 feet, it’s compact enough for easy trailering and docking in tighter slips, yet the deep-V hull offers the confidence to handle afternoon chop and boat traffic. The bowrider layout is ideal for family beach runs, sandbar rafting, or cocktail cruises along the shoreline. Quick acceleration from the V8 makes towing tubes or wake toys effortless, while the refined lines and brightwork look right at home among upscale marinas. It’s a versatile day boat that feels equally suited to quiet harbor evenings and fast runs to your favorite waterfront hangouts.
