    Wonder if it would tow a boat to the lake? Something like this:https://www.smartmarineguide.com/L54472

    I'm sure it would. Looking at the Chris Craft brings back memories---not all good. I had a similar wood boat with the white caulked joints---and I even had a mid-deck to add to the fun. Maintaining that thing was an unending job. Every winter I had to strip the finish, scrape out the joints and redo. The only thing that was low maintenance was the hull which was painted below the water line---that's because the damn thing seldom got wet
