1960 Chris Craft 17' Sportsman Restoration

We never pass up an opportunity to spotlight a boat refinishing project - especially when it involves a vintage 1960 Chris Craft 17-foot Sportsman.

The owner of the boat, Robert Larsen, used six total cans of Vette Red and Sea Ray Cutty white to restore the dash and cushions. Red is especially prone to fading so this is perfect to show how ColorBond can bring the material back to pristine condition.

He spent under $100 for what normally would cost thousands!

As a member of the Antique and Classic Boat Society and Chris Craft Boat Club, Mr. Larsen has received many compliments on the boat. People can't believe that everything on his boat is still 100% original and that ColorBond helped him restore the original glory. They all assume he bought replacement parts!

Take a look for yourself on the great work...
