Chris-Craft Calypso 24

Chris-Craft brings yet another gem to the table with the stylish little Calypso 24, an outboard-powered bowrider that combines classic, low-profile lines with onboard space and amenities, making it equally adept in both saltwater and fresh.

“This model debuted in late 2021 and we are very excited to get our first one this spring,” says Craig Duchow of Centerpointe Yacht Services in Wisconsin. “Many boats look great, but don’t perform well; this can do both. Chris-Craft builds the Calypso in Sarasota, Florida, for the rough sea conditions of the Gulf of Mexico and the ocean, as well as the harsh saltwater environment of Florida. Combine their high quality and craftsmanship with remarkable styling and design and the result is the pride of ownership that you only get with Chris-Craft.”

Versatility is key to this model, and that means beyond just the places she can go. It also entails how she can be used when she gets to where she’s going.

“Versatility, of course, is a major strength with this model,” Duchow continues. “The Calypso 24 can handle big water like larger boats, yet is easily trailerable, allowing you to boat in a variety of areas. My favorite features are the solid hardtop, large bow seating area and portside entry gate for easy boarding.”

Other features on the Calypso include folding and convertible seating in the cockpit that can create various entertainment arrangements for different occasions. A wetbar to port is complemented by available rod holders, a slide-out Yeti cooler and a JL Audio speaker system, among other accoutrements.

As a lake boat, the Calypso 24 is hard to beat. She has the amenities and all-around style to make her pop in any port, while a tried-and-true hull design and exciting power options offer big-time performance. This is truly a boat with something for everyone.
