There are only two 35' StanCraft Speedsters in existence, and one is permanently owned by Richard Brooke. This work of art is powered by twin 465hp MerCruiser 496s engines. Even at 50mph, this 7,000-pound beauty cuts chop like a hot knife! The front electric hatch hides a three-person rumble seat. The section in front of the windshield contains the engines with three feet in front of them and 18 inches in-between in which to work. Behind each front seat is storage for bumpers, blankets, etc. There is also storage under the back seats. The shifters and throttles are chrome Marine Machine and the Monstor gauges are Norskog including a GPS speedo. The gauges are analog style with blue back lighting. StanCraft boats are all original designs since 1933. They are hand-built and finished with 12 coats of Epithane. It is impossible to drive this boat anywhere without drawing a crowd. It is a two-of-a-kind work of art.

"The lines of the StanCraft are traditional, stunning lines,
but for me it's really the wood. It's the depth of the mahogany -
it's beautiful, a work of art", says Bliss Boats Owner, Richard
Brooke. "I fell in love with it, stunning boat."Click here to hear what else Richard has to say in a seven and a half minute feature aired recently on the Travel Channel program, Extreme Boats! |
