All Classic Sport Boats for sale in the UK
One of the first fibreglass Chris Crafts Solid construction. Deep V hull designed by Jim Wynne (winner of Cowes Torquay in 1966 and inventor of the outdrive!). Very seaworthy for a boat of this size (22-23ft).
New Volvo Penta 300hp petrol engine and DP outdrive to get through CE certification into the UK. The XK22 is rare worldwide and this is almost certainly the only one in the UK. Mechanicals recently serviced along with the engine bay painted. The trim seems to have stopped working since then, but might be electrical as the switch is loose. The trim tabs also need work. Low hours...

Remarks :
These rare, classic, pocket rockets don't come up very often, and looking at this one I don't expect for it to be for sale for very long. She is a very original Albatross Mk3, with the Ford 100E 39hp petrol engine. Direct drive, and a true thoroughbred sports boat.
Her original corrosion resistant magnesium alloy hull is in lovely condition. These boats were built after WW2 using expertly rivetted aircraft grade aluminum, birmabright.
Her paintwork is good, and her engine looks to have been well maintained over the years. Upholstery is also in good shape, as well as her basic da...

Here we have a rare and very special 1928 Wooden gentleman's sport launch.
The recent 2024 survey advises she is likely a Chris Craft, however there is no substantiation of this and thus I have her listed just as a wooden launch. However, her workmanship is certainly in keeping with the surveyor's view.
She is a stunning classic wooden design mostly kept ashore and under her full cover on her road trailer, all of which is included in the sale.
She was fully serviced mid 2025 including anodes and underwater areas and has a full cover for storage and transport.
She is just br...

Description
The Petticrows Liberty 25 is a stunning gentleman’s launch, perfect for family fun, picnicking and water sports.

She has a towing eye and higher ski pole to accommodate a wide range of water sports. She has only ever seen fresh water use and has lifting straps fitted to be craned into the water so the trailer has remained dry.
