“Zissou” is a sleek, fast, elegant, high end Express Cruiser made to very high standards. The Chris Craft Roamer series is above average in construction and amenities, with a touch of old world luxury. No expense was spared to make this a top of the line Express Yacht. The Volvo IPS-500’s with a joy stick control system allows for easy and efficient maneuvering at any speed. This unique yacht has two staterooms below decks each with private head and the master has a separate stall shower. The main cabin features a curved settee across from a U-shaped fully equipped galley. The mid-cabin has two twin beds that convert to a double if desired. Everywhere you look, the upscale interior has a sophisticated blend of cherry cabinetry, top quality furnishings and designer decorator fabrics. The spacious cockpit and deck area have built-in lounge seating for ten and the oversize teak swim platform holds the tender.

“Zissou” has classic looks from the Heritage package which includes teak accents starting in the bow seating area up front all the way to the spacious teak covered swim platform. The bow holds the anchor, roller and ground tackle handled by a low profile windlass as well as a remote spotlight to show the way in case of a late night approach. In the center of the bow is a healthy sized sun pad area surrounded by varnished wood handrails and drink holders. The long windows along the sides are accented with beautifully varnished wood and the Chris-Craft signature. The hardtop keeps you out of the sun and the two opening hatches allow plenty of cool air into the cockpit.
