Where sleek yachts meet and fashionables foregather ...
Chris-Craft makes new friends and draws old friends closer ...
The need for sport, the desire for comfort and luxury, and the value of speedy and convenient
transportation were important concerns to Americans of the 1920s. Chris-Craft, with its new
standards of luxury and speed combined with moderate price and absolute safety, met all three
needs. Chris-Crafts were easy to handle, dependable, and seaworthy. Many celebrities owned
Chris-Crafts, but Chris-Craft's real bread and butter was the hopeful American middle class.
