    Anyone who can help me with info regarding 14' Chris-Craft Zephyr/Bonito, designed and sold as kit boats in the late fifty's?
    I have one made by my dad in 58 and can't find out much about it.

    The 1956 kit sold for $167. Wish I could build a boat for two bills now :cool:

    Thanks Kailani. All info is much appreciated.
    Heres a picture of the boat probably in 59 or 60 with my dad and my sister. This picture must have been taken just after my dad arrived back to Norway with his newly buildt Chris-Craft. He was a captain in the merchant navy and bought and buildt this one while at sea.
