For Sale: 1985 Grand Craft Triple 24'
$70,000

Step into a world where timeless elegance meets modern reliability — an era when boating was more than sport, it was style. Presenting a 1985 Grand Craft triple-cockpit runabout: a painstakingly crafted homage to the golden age of boating, built for the aficionado who appreciates wood, craftsmanship, and heritage.

Built by Grand Craft, the continuation of a storied mahogany-boat tradition from Holland, Michigan to present day in Wisconsin — combining “the authenticity of the past with the dependability of the present.”

Grand Craft was founded in 1979 by Steve Northuis and Chris Smith — the latter a grandson of Christopher Columbus Smith, the founder of the iconic vintage wooden-boat manufacturer Chris‑Craft

Key Features:

Formerly owned by Michael Eisner, retired CEO of The Walt Disney Company, this vessel also played a key role as a Disney wedding boat for many years.

Hand-crafted: each Grand Craft hull takes thousands of hours; the hull is built with multiple layers of mahogany planks, sealed with epoxy saturation for durability, strength, and virtually no soaking — salt or fresh water ready.

Elegant triple-cockpit layout — reminiscent of the classic 1930s Chris-Craft runabouts, but with the benefits of modern materials and engineering.

When Grand Craft originally offered its “triple cockpit / Chris-Craft–inspired” runabouts, it was extremely limited. According to accounts tracing their earliest triple-cockpit builds only 17 of these limited-edition boats were ever commissioned.

That makes this 1985 triple-cockpit runabout a rare collector-quality piece — one of a very small number ever built.

Craftsmanship that lasts for generations, built by hand, with the finest materials: African mahogany exterior, hand-cast brass/bronze hardware, epoxy-sealed hull.

This boat — fittingly named Breathless — will surely turn heads with its vintage lines that appear to have been lifted from a 1930s magazine advertisement.
