Check the hull registry there is one. It's located in Austrailia. Very nice  , one of my favorite models.

The boat out of Trading Dock is a real beauty, albeit with a price to match! But it is not a "Sedan" as stated in the ad. It's proper Chris Craft model name is a "Clipper", but in a much more generic terms it is an "Express Cruiser" or Soft Top Express as are many other boats in that style.
Right before I moved out here to the Great Pacific Northwest, I met a couple of brothers from Lima, Ohio that boated in my old neck of the woods in Marblehead, Ohio on Lake Erie's Western Basin. One of them had a beautiful, newly restored Conny that was about 27-28', and they had just pulled a forgotten Clipper out of a nearby boathouse and drug it to there shop. They might have it all refinished by now. It is a cool boat!
