Chris Craft 36 Corsair Heritage Edition
– Over $200,000 Spent on 2024 Refit –
ON DISPLAY AT SANCTUARY COVE BOAT SHOW | 22–25 MAY
A true classic reborn. This 2006 Chris Craft 36 Corsair Heritage Edition has just completed a meticulous, no-expense-spared refit in 2024, transforming an already iconic vessel into a show-stopping head-turner with modern luxuries and total mechanical peace of mind. With over $200,000 invested and every system, finish, and fitting touched, this is an unrepeatable offering that blends timeless American styling with premium upgrades, diesel performance, and turnkey reliability.
Powered by twin Volvo Penta D6-310AB diesel engines, this rare and desirable diesel configuration delivers smooth, efficient cruising and exceptional reliability. Complemented by brand new Volvo Aquamatic stern drives installed as part of the 2024 refit, this powertrain offers significant long-term value and fuel economy over its petrol counterparts.
Backed by extensive service records and documentation spanning more than a decade, this vessel represents a rare opportunity to own a genuinely turn-key day cruiser that combines sophistication and functionality in perfect harmony.
Few names carry the weight and prestige of Chris Craft—synonymous with luxury, heritage, and exceptional boatbuilding. The 36 Corsair is one of the most celebrated models in the range, perfectly suited for Australia’s coastal lifestyle. Whether you’re cruising the Gold Coast Broadwater, Moreton Bay, or Sydney Harbour, it delivers an unforgettable ride with refined overnight accommodation, a spacious cockpit for entertaining, and exceptional attention to detail throughout.
Now progressing through AMSA Commercial Survey
The vessel has also commenced the process of entering AMSA commercial survey, significantly expanding its future potential. Whether you’re considering private luxury use with tax advantages or a boutique charter operation, this opens the door to a range of business and investment opportunities. With demand rising for stylish, versatile commercial vessels, the groundwork is already being laid for future income potential or tax-effective ownership.
