One of the more desirable models of Chris Craft to own . Powered by the orriginal MBL big 6 . Alexandra came from the finger lakes of NY state for a new 5200 bottom, re-finnish and new interior .
Arival
Interior removed and ready to turn over
Stands built onto the stringers to support the boat upside down
ready for bottom removal
bottom planking cut off around frames
This is a replacement bottom . Sometimes to cut costs builders use plywood for the inner skin . The broblem with plywood is that it has a 20 year life
Looks like a new stem is in order too
Planks bedded in 3M 5200 . Some people have tried cheaper products , but there is nothing quite as good as 5200
