A thing of beauty...

Well, sometimes it's good to plan ahead and when this 6" Cleat turned up on ebay how could I resist?

From a classic sixties Chris-Craft, it has now found it's way from Florida to Sussex - just a little more work to do before the final fitting!

Hi
I have just bought a Broom speedboat the same as yours and intend to completely restore it as well, but having trouble finding any information about them. Are there any sites/information about the boats anywhere as I would like to know the history and if you can get parts anymore.(I also need a windscreen)lol.
If you have any information I would be very grateful.

Thanks

John

John - sadly not much info at all on the web - the links here are about as good as it gets:(
I'm not a great authority on the marque but as an enthusiast have acquired quite a bit of knowledge - just ask away and I'll try to answer any questions you may have.
Let me know if you find a windscreen - looks like I'm going to have to fabricate one from scratch - hey ho!
Cheers,
