Beautiful, Completely Restored Classic 1952 CENTURY RESORTER!
The 1952 Century Resorter is a classic wooden speedboat characterized by its elegant design and timeless appeal. Crafted from mahogany wood, it features a sleek, streamlined hull, typically measuring around 16 to 18 feet in length.
The deck is well-designed, with a bow deck housing a wraparound windshield and a comfortable cockpit area for passengers.
Notable features include chrome-plated hardware (upgraded chrome), adding a touch of sophistication to the boat's aesthetic. Inside, you'll find plush, cushioned seating in the classic red color.
The dashboard of this beautiful vessel is minimalistic yet functional, housing a vintage steering wheel and essential instrumentation.
Under the hood, the 1952 Century Resorter boasts a powerful Chris Craft 6 cylinder Hercules marine engine.
As a vintage wooden boat, the 1952 Century Resorter enjoys a rich history and is highly sought by boating enthusiasts. It represents an era when wooden boats were synonymous with luxury and style on the water.
The current owner has truly loved working on this gorgeous Century.
Today, these boats are lovingly restored and preserved, celebrated for their enduring beauty and craftsmanship.
While we will always attempt to provide you with a TRUE representation of every vessel we market, during any purchase from Pop you will be encouraged to schedule an inspection from an independent, accredited surveyor and every purchase WILL ALWAYS BE subject to your satisfaction with the results from your independent survey and your own personal trial run.
We have several more Grady-White, Pro-Line, and Wellcraft vessels for sale. If you're in the Pensacola, Biloxi, Ferry Pass, or Bellview areas, please contact us to let us know what you're looking for and we'll get back with you today about any other antique boat options we have locally that may meet your needs.
