Relish

1970, Chris Craft Cavalier Cutlass, 22’ with 2010, Sport Boat Trailers Double-Axle Trailer

 

Relish

Based on the earlier Chris Craft designs of wooden construction like the Sea Skiff, Open Dory and Cavalier the Chris Craft Cavalier Cutlass provides it’s owners with all the great characteristics and sea kindliness of wooden predecessors but in easy to manage and maintain fiberglass construction.

Relish is a wonderful example of the “CCCC” model that saw a major refit/rebuild/restoration of all aspects of the hull, deck, accommodations, soft goods, canvas, propulsion and fuel systems, electrical systems and electronic equipment.

Since that time Relish has seen light, modest use and has been continually maintained in a fashion to keep her in near new and turnkey condition.
