|
|
Does anybody know anything about Craig craft. I just bought a 96 boat, looks way newer with the lines and moulded swim platform, has a 5.8 ford inmar direct drive.
Everything seems to be straight off a master craft
Can anyone help me with a model or any info on the boat ?!

He said Craig Craft, not Correct Craft.
I've seen the name but know nothing about it. Google doesn't help? _________________ FlyZone Wakeboarding Costa Rica |

haha, oops, that's what I get for assuming he mistyped or didn't know what he was talking about
apparently craig craft made mastercraft clones until mastercraft told them to stop |

Ha ha Cheers Guys. Not much on google about them either,
Even in images I can't find a model close to my one, but hey a master craft clone can't be a bad thing can it.
I put a pic up soon.
An iPhone app that you could load pics off would be handy would it!! |

Craig Craft were made in the UK, they made boats like the Dominator and Eliminator.
Are you in the UK or US? If in the US you probably have the only one! In the UK there are still a few knocking around. _________________ www.AxisBoats.co.uk | www.Malibu-Boats.co.uk |

I'm in Ireland, I've seen 1 other dominator here but that's it.
But nothing like my own |

Clean looking boat.
So did they actually copy a Mastercraft hull? If so which one? How's the wake? _________________ FlyZone Wakeboarding Costa Rica |

We have a pretty good history of ripping boats off in the UK... Was always cheaper than shipping in back in the day.
Alongside the genuinely produced "under license" boats in the UK like glastron, Mastercraft etc we also had ski delta, skipjack, craig craft etc all building pretty much the same thing. _________________ www.AxisBoats.co.uk | www.Malibu-Boats.co.uk |

Probably bought the old mold, this used to happen a lot more in the early days of fiberglass boats. I've even seen ads for carolina style fishing boat molds for sale that a known manufacturer was selling to make space in their yard. _________________ If I agreed with you we would both be wrong. |
