Chris-Craft Launch 35 GT Let the GT stand for “great times.”
A
s the largest boat in the Launch GT series, Chris-Craft has brought it all together in its new 35-footer. The retro digital control helm is sleek, with dual 10-inch Garmin touch-screen multifunction displays. With a right-side console that houses the throttle and joystick, the layout is clean. Invite the whole family, who will be comfortable in the spacious open bow with circular seating, forwardfacing lounge seats, grabrails and cup holders. Toss in the filler cushion for a custom sunpad. Cockpit seating includes a portside L-settee with ample bottom and back cushions; a mahogany fold-out table runs the full length. Across is the wetbar station with grill and fridge below. Twin bolstered helm seats are stitched and have built-in grabrails for anyone standing. Access to the aft transom sunpad is via a starboard walkthrough to the swim platform. A starboard-side door with fold-out ladder makes for easy boarding from the dock or water.

This is more than a dayboat, so staying on the hook for a few nights is not out of the question. The port helm console houses a well-appointed head with toilet, basin sink and counter. On the starboard side, the cabin has a settee/bunk (with filler cushion), locker and TV. Opt for the AC/heat system and generator to keep the cabins comfortable. According to Craig Duchow, principal and general manager at CenterPointe Yacht Services, there’s more to this high-end luxury bowrider: “In Chris-Craft’s grand tradition, you get classic unmatched styling and excellent performance.” Accentuating the overall sleek design is the swept-back windshield and optional hardtop, with motorized sunshade, LED lights and speakers. Engine packages include Mercury and Volvo powerplants, from 350- to 430-hp, in gas or diesel. Take a look at the Chris-Craft Launch 35 GT. Let the GT stand for “great times!” H
