Chris Craft 28 Launch Series Boat Review

Chris Craft 28 Launch Series Boats

Quality and Exceptional Attention to Detail

Chris Craft is known for being one of the most remarkably beautiful designed boats on the market. The attention to the overall design and rich history of their vessels is evident in every one they produce. The Chris Craft 28 Launch Series boats for sale today are a stark reminder to the golden age of boating, but have all of the amenities that modern boaters expect from their vessels. You will love this exceptionally designed family pleasure cruiser.

Power and performance

Making a vessel look the part is not as important as having ample power to speed it through the water. The designers at Chris Craft have ensured that this Chris Craft Launch Series boat has it all in supreme style. The twin engine configuration of the Chris Craft 28 Launch Series enables you to have the power you need for any sea conditions without overpowering the vessel with too many motors. The choices for which motors you want for the boat is up to the individual customer. Mercury V8 6.2L 300s and 350s are an option for those that prefer that brand, but Volvo seems to be the most popular option on Chris Craft vessels. The options for the Volvo motors include the V8 5.3L 300 and 350 and the 6.0 L comes with the choice of twin 380s or 430s. The third option for the Volvo motor brand is twin Diesel D3 220s. The choice is yours, but no matter which brand or HP motor you choose, you will love the experience onboard the Chris Craft 28 Launch Series.

Dive Platform

One of the most unique pieces found on the Chris Craft boats today are the swim platforms. The teak wood found throughout the boat makes the swim platform more stable than the standard fiberglass finish found in most vessels. Additional features in this area add to the experience of the vessel. A fold away swim ladder drops deep into the water to allow ease entry onto the boat and the ski mount gives you a stable place to mount you water toys for some water sports. The dive platform also houses a freshwater washdown system that helps to wash away the salt water and keeping the interior salt free. When getting onto the vessel from the swim platform, the center cushion of the rear lounge space comes out to reveal a teak walk deck for a stable place to enter the interior of the deck.

At the Helm

The helm is where most of the action onboard the boat takes place. The designers of the Chris Craft 28 Launch Series boats paid special attention to the helm space to ensure that the captain could remain comfortable at all times. Unlike other boat models offered by Chris Craft that merely offer a swivel captain’s chair, the Chris Craft 28 Launch Series boats for sale come with an expansive helm seating space to allow for two to sit comfortably at the helm. The seat also converts with a pop up bolster to allow you to stand while piloting the boat while maintaining support. The helm area itself has been designed to be completely ergonomic and have luxury features to add to the experience. This model also comes with a convenient arm rest that provides a more comfortable driving experience.

The Head

On the standard Chris Craft boat, the head is located at the passenger seating area. This one is designed a bit differently than the standard model. On the Chris Craft 28 Launch series boats for sale, the head is located in the bow of the boat. The space opens at the wrap around seating area to reveal an expansive head compartment in front of the helm station. This space is large enough to provide ample changing space and the porta potty style toilet provides for your guest’s most basic necessities.
