Chris Craft Carina 21

The Carina 21 draws inspiration from the timeless Chris-Craft DNA, evoking the classic elegance and refined lines of the iconic models of the 1930s. Its vertical bow, also known as a canoe bow, is a tribute to the mahogany runabouts that made the brand's history.

Every detail expresses quality and craftsmanship, with first-class materials and over 140 years of experience in building luxury motorboats.

The Carina 21's lines are elegant and precisely sculpted, with impeccable stainless-steel and teak finishes. The raked windscreen blends harmoniously with the sleek silhouette, while the reverse transom panel and the polished steel band underline its distinctive character.

Design and Materials

The Carina 21 is 6.46 metres long and 2.16 metres wide, with a beam that extends further forward than boats of the same class, offering more space in the bow area.

• Fibreglass hull with impeccable finishes
• Teak deck in the Heritage Trim Edition, adding elegance and retro charm
• Stainless-steel handles and details, including cup holders and recessed air vents
• Accent plate on the vertical bow, emphasising the Chris-Craft aesthetic signature

At the bow, the navigation lights and the Burgee flag holder are integrated into a single sculptural element, in perfect Chris-Craft style.

Comfort and Functionality

The U-shaped bow lounge area is designed to offer a comfortable and luxurious boating experience.

• Enveloping seats with diamond-pattern stitching, combining style and comfort
• Large storage areas under the seats, perfect for equipment and personal belongings
• Bespoke removable fridge, to always have cold drinks within reach

In the cockpit, we find swivel seats for the captain and passenger, with a sturdy stainless-steel safety bar. The helm is a perfect balance of classic and modern, with a three-spoke mahogany wheel fitted with a counterweight to keep the logo always upright. The instruments are mounted on a retro-design perforated silver panel, adding a touch of timeless elegance.

Comfort is further enhanced by the Rockford Fosgate AM/FM/CD stereo, with four speakers and a hidden subwoofer, for high-quality sound in any situation.

Aft, a large sun pad covers the engine compartment, with removable cushions that reveal a practical teak passage to reach the bathing platform.

Performance and Navigation

The Carina 21 offers an exciting driving experience thanks to the powerful 260 HP Mercruiser V8 5.0L engine.

• Cruising speed: 30 knots
• Top speed: 38 knots
• Consumption at cruising speed: 35 litres/hour
• Consumption at top speed: 50 litres/hour

The boat rises onto the water in a clean 4 seconds, offering smooth and responsive handling. The deep-V bottom ensures stability and safety, even in rougher waters.

The teak-lined aft platform includes a retractable three-step ladder and an extendable shower, perfect for a comfortable return after a swim. A retractable tow pylon allows waterskiing and wakeboarding.

For those who love to sail at night too, optional LED lights are available to light the way back to shore with style and safety.
