Original Description:
1970 Chris Craft Roamer Express Cruiser 38' - 75% Restored - - -This is a project boat but one that now has a Solid Steel foundation! We spent over $15, 000 to remove and replace the majority of the hull shortly after pull out three years ago.

...rif", "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">For sale is the former "Shooting Star" of Chattanooga. She was restored over 10 years ago and both engines rebuilt. Three years ago we decided to pull the vessel and do a complete bottom job and redo the engine compartment and above seating areas....got distracted and lost steam.

The majority of the bottom has been either replaced or replated and painted with bottom paint and ready for the finish paint that we have already purchased. 

The twin 427 engines remain in good shape and are warehoused and ARE included in the sale...these are valued at no less than $3, 500 by COBRA enthusiasts. Also stored are many many mechanical components to include the transmissions. One of the transmissions has been professionally rebuilt at cost of $1, 500; the other transmission is in good condition. Both brass props have been professionally balanced and now in excellent condition - cost was $500+ 

Remaining work other than putting the pieces back together would be to repaint the engine compartment, rebuild a flooring system / floor and sidewalls at the helm / sitting areas. The lower cabin areas are in good condition and was restored about 10 years ago.

Exterior paint is in good shape just sunbaked along with the mahogany; one area on forward bow needs repair from a minor impact.

She is on blocks at Hales Bar so feel free to do a drive by....again, the engine area and above flooring has been gutted to allow for the final phase of steel prep and then rebuild so don't expect it to look Rosey! Hales Bar has been a great place to store the boat and am certain they would allow the new buyer to stay there.

Please see attached pictures for detail taken from an old survey in regard to boat specifics....below is a short summary.
ENGINES - 2ct 427's Rebuilt about 10 years ago....low miles but unknown.
Transmissions - 2ct Paragons...one good shape, other recently rebuilt

TANKS 
Fresh Water - 1ct approx. 100 gallons galvanized steel in good shape 
Fuel Tanks: 2ct approx. 100 gallons each galvanized steel in good shape

PLEASE SEE PICTURES FOR DETAILS OF MECHANICALS, EQUIPMENT ETC.On Nov-29-19 at 08:15:57 PST, seller added the following information:
UPDATE - 11.29.19:The vessel was recently re-located from Hales Bar to our Chattanooga, TN 37406 warehouse site.  The engines, transmissions and various parts are on pallets or boxes and in the warehouse ready for pick-up.
