1963 Chris-Craft Constellation yacht on serene water with forest backdrop.

Description

Constellations were elite cruisers built by Chris-Craft Industries. The SCORPIUS, built of wood, is pristine and retains many original fixtures and equipment that have renewed workings and keeping their vintage appearance. The vessel has been moored undercover in freshwater since new, with many summer cruises to the San Juans and Canadian Gulf Islands taken over the years. Consistently upgraded and expertly maintained the SCORPIUS is well worth consideration as not just a classic, but ready to enjoy in active use.
