Steve Heese, Chris-Craft President, said: “The Corsair line carries the core DNA of the legendary Chris-Craft brand. We built her to fill a need in our closed-deck series of cruisers.” The Corsair 32 is well-suited to accommodate overnight excursions but is also built for day cruising and quick turns around the bay before a champagne sunset.
Corsair 32 yacht tender’s owners can choose from a multitude of exterior options including custom paint colors such as the new Cashmere Metallic, “We are very excited about our new custom color offerings for 2013, which include the ability to please the discerning Chris-Craft customer, by building the boat to their exact specifications and we do this, all in-house,” said Steve Heese. The Corsair 32 is also available in three Heritage Edition Teak options with a choice of natural or varnished teak finishes as well as black or the new blonde, teak caulking.
And the choices and luxury appointments don’t end there. A skylight runs the entire length of the forward deck and is flanked by teak to allow for maximum natural light into the forward salon. The luxury interior cabin of the 32 yacht tender comes with a choice of cherry or walnut cabinetry to compliment the interior upholstery and seating, which is available in three color combinations.
