About
1996 Chris-Craft 38 Continental –40' Express Cruiser – Exceptional Value
If you've been looking for a spacious 40-foot express cruiser without a six-figure price tag, this 1996 Chris-Craft Continental deserves serious consideration.
Owned by the current owner for approximately five years and stored indoors during the winter months in the Grimsby area, this classic Great Lakes cruiser has benefited from significant investment and ongoing improvements. The owner originally purchased the boat intending to bring it back to its full potential and has completed substantial mechanical and cosmetic work along the way. Due to lifestyle changes the owner decided to part with the boat and he has priced the boat very attractively, creating an outstanding opportunity for the next owner.
Power comes from replacement twin Chevrolet 454 big block gasoline engines. Both engines have been observed running properly, and the vessel has been sea trialed following the professional rebuild of the transmissions.
The hull and decks have recently been buffed and polished, and the boat presents very well for its age. Inside, you'll find the spacious accommodations and comfortable layout that made the Chris-Craft 38 Continental a popular choice among Great Lakes boaters. Headliners are reported to be in good condition with no signs of water intrusion, upgraded seating has been installed, and several onboard systems have been updated.
Highlights and recent upgrades include:
• Replacement twin Chevrolet Crusarder 454 big block gasoline engines • Both engines running and operational • Port Transmission professionally rebuilt • NEW Bosch Bluetooth stereo system with speakers • NEW GPS/Fish finder • NEW flat-screen TV • NEW refrigerator • NEW stove • NEW battery charger • NEW oil coolers
• Upgraded seating and floors • Functional trim tabs • Navigation lights tested and operational • Engine compartment blower operational • Bimini top • New tonneau/storage cover • Downrigger mounting bases (downriggers excluded) • Kicker motor mounting bracket (motor excluded) • Indoor winter storage during current ownership • Hull and decks buffed and polished
This vessel is best suited for a buyer seeking exceptional value and comfortable accommodations in a 40-foot cruiser, while understanding that several systems remain unfinished or require attention. The freshwater system is currently not commissioned, the original marine air conditioning system is inoperative (portable A/C unit is used instead), portions of the onboard electrical system have been modified from their original configuration, and some helm gauges remain to be connected. The electric head is operational; however, buyers are encouraged to verify the sanitation system configuration and ensure compliance with their intended area of use.
At this price point, opportunities to own a freshwater 40-foot express cruiser with both engines running are becoming increasingly rare. This Chris-Craft represents an incredible amount of boat for the money and offers the next owner the opportunity to enjoy the water while completing the remaining finishing touches over time.
The boat is in the water in Oakville area and available for viewing by appointment.
The Company offers the details of this vessel in good faith but cannot guarantee or warrant the accuracy of this information nor warrant the condition of the vessel. A buyer should instruct his agents, or his surveyors, to investigate such details as the buyer desires validated. This vessel is offered subject to prior sale, price change, or withdrawal without notice.
