This 33 ft Sport Sedan is a classic all fiberglass hulled Chris Craft. A fiberglass hard top was added behind the flybridge by the first owner to provide shade and protect the cockpit from bad weather. We updated the navigation electronics and added a dinghy.
We made significant updates to the navigation electronics in 2021 adding Garmin GPS Radar Sonar: GARMIN GPSMAP 1242xsv Touch Chartplotter/GPS; GARMIN GMR Fantom™ 18x Radome radar; GARMIN GT50M-TH Thru-Hull Traditional and CHIRP ClearVu/SideVu Transducer; GARMIN GRID MFD Remote Control. Other electronics include 3 VHF radios, one with AIS, all required navigation lights, plus a remote controlled search light.
From the bow to the stern it is set up to have access to all compartments for ease of maintenance. On the foredeck is a hinged hatch which can be opened for ventilation or as an emergency escape hatch, if needed. There is a screen for this hatch to keep flying insects our of the forward cabin when used for ventilation. The side windows, both lower and upper slide to open for more ventilation.
There is an electric Ideal anchor windlass on the bow with 180 ft of chain attached which drops into the chain locker below at the stem, this chain locker is drained into the bilge to eliminate build up of stagnant water.
The cockpit deck has two hatches, the aft for access to the steering gear, rudder angle indicator and fuel gauges on top of two 100 gal fuel tanks. The forward hatch gives access to the shaft stuffing boxes and storage to port and starboard.
The cockpit has a fiberglass cover. We added a crane and padded bunks for our dinghy. The dinghy is an 11 ft Bestway Hydro Force Inflatable Boat with inflatable keel, aluminum floor and benches and powered with a 9.9 hp Honda Outboard.
On the aft salon mahogany bulkhead is a sliding door on centerline which is the main access, plus a large portion of this bulkhead is windows which allow light into and visibility from the salon. To the port in the salon is a fold out double bed/sofa combination and to the starboard corner is the main control station. The old propane heater, which was mounted on the starboard bulkhead has been replaced with a 4 speaker marine stereo.
Going forward down three steps is the dinette to port and the galley to starboard. The galley is equipped with an electric stove with oven, a microwave, coffee pot and toaster oven. The galley also comes stocked with plates, bowls, cups, knives and silverware, pots and pans. The galley sink has pressurized hot and cold water. The refrigerator and hot water tank can run off either 110v shorepower or the generator. The shore plug is 100v 30 amps.
Forward of the galley is the head, with shower. A macerator pump was installed and a pressure pump with a hot water tank on the 30 gallon fresh water system. A shower pump out with its own float switch has been installed in the bilge. Under the floor boards in the passage are access panels to the head discharge and LetraSan Sewage treatment system.
Forward is a double vee berth with a cedar lined closet and vanity. Additional accommodations are provided by the dinette that converts to double bed, and the fold out double bed sofa in salon.
The hull is a single piece molded fiberglass hull. All the thru-hulls have been inspected and maintained during annual haul out. Large portions of the bilge have been painted white for visibility of potential problems. There are 5 electric bilge pumps in different bays of the bilge, all of which have automatic float switches for safety, plus there is a manual diaphragm pump for emergencies.
There are two GMC 350, Marine Power Corp, gasoline engines, each putting out 230 hp. The raw water pumps, belts, fuel pumps and carburetors have been well maintained. Both cooling systems have been flushed and exhaust risers replaced. The gearboxes are Paragon P series hydraulic transmissions.
