Chris-Craft introduced its new Launch 27 at the Discover Miami International Boat Show in February 2026, showcasing a model reimagined from bow to stern that blends modern performance and timeless design for a fresh experience on the water. The Launch 27 has been a popular model for over 25 years, offering a smooth ride, iconic silhouette and beautiful craftsmanship. The updated model delivers the same craftsmanship and iconic style, with enhanced comfort and advanced technology that deliver a contemporary take on the timeless model.
“The Launch 27 has long been an iconic model in the Chris‑Craft portfolio, and we set out to thoughtfully reimagine the boat — building upon its timeless foundation of classic elegance, design excellence, and exceptional craftsmanship,” says Ron Berman, engineering lead at Chris-Craft. “Our goal was to seamlessly integrate the latest marine technologies to elevate performance, comfort and the overall on‑water experience.”
A sleek, sporty profile and spacious interior with extra storage deliver comfort and style, with abundant seating in the cockpit and wrap-around seating in the bow. A concealed Bimini top comes standard on the Launch 27, with the option for a power Bimini that deploys at the simple push of a button.
A new Garmin 1543 XSC Ultrawide display compliments the helm, while a standard audio system includes a Fusion source unit and four JL Sport grill M3 speakers, with the option to upgrade to a premium audio system. A full-beam wrap-around swim platform includes a manual swim step and safety interlock function, and the engine hatch includes fixed sun pads and removable center section for easy access to the cockpit.
