Following the successful launch of three new boats last year, Chris-Craft will be attending the 2013 Miami International Boat Show with a completely new 20-foot Carina 20 yacht tender on display. The all-new 2013 Carina 20 boat incorporates design cues from the Chris-Craft vertical bows of the 1920s as well as the brand’s original DNA.
All-new Chris Craft Carina 20 superyacht tender
The Carina 20 superyacht tender is a new runabout, built with a vertical bow profile complete with stainless steel bow plate. It also carries the classic reverse transom that has become a signature of Chris-Craft design.

This year’s showboat will also sport a range of new features including an all new frameless windshield, a new graphite metallic paint color, a new diamond patterned fabric upholstery and custom deck hardware exclusive to this new boat. Steve Heese, Chris-Craft President, said: “The Carina 20 speaks to the past but the design appeal is forward thinking and unmistakably Chris-Craft.”

The Carina 20 yacht tender, whose official name was recently announced on Boating Magazine’s Facebook page to much fanfare, will be the first of two vertical bow boats that Chris-Craft will produce this year. The next edition vertical bow series will debut in the summer of 2013 and will have a closed-deck.
