Details

El Zanco is a stunning example of the 18ft Holiday built by Chris Craft in 1962, known by many as the American Riva.

Discovered in the late 1990s in the garage of a villa in the South of France, El Zanco was brought back to our boatyard at Hurley where she was meticulously restored to a high level of authenticity with no expense spared using original Chris Craft materials & fittings as necessary, this particular model must be seen to be truly appreciated.

In 2001 she was delivered to the National Motorboat Museum in Basildon, Essex, where she resided as an exhibit until 2010.

El Zanco remains in excellent order and is for sale complete with purpose built road trailer
