Dieses Boot ist ein Mahagoni-Flitzer der amerikanischen Firma Chris Craft (Chris Smith & Sons). Baujahr 1930, Originalmotor von Chris Craft A120. 250 PS, 13,5 Liter Hubraum. Geschwindigkeit 38 Knoten.
Das Boot wurde 1930 vom schwedischen Chris Craft Importeur Bengt Unander Schorin für den Käufer JP Åhlen, Gründer des ersten schwedischen Kaufhauses, das Åhlens lieferte, gebaut. Daher der Name JP III.
JP III ist vollständig restauriert und befindet sich in einem sehr guten und sauberen Zustand - innen und außen. Das Boot wurde 25 Jahre lang restauriert. Der Originalmotor (Motornummer 514) ist veraltet und steht als Austauschmotor zur Verfügung. Ein identischer Motor wurde in den USA bestellt und ist heute der Motor der JP III. (Motornummer 426) JP III hat eine schwedische Auszeichnung für das beste restaurierte Boot aller Zeiten erhalten. Man muss Jp III erleben und dem Klang des 13,5L V8-Motors lauschen. Die hellen Beschläge mit dem glänzenden Lack auf dem Mahagoni sind ein Blickfang.
Sie ist eine echte Rarität, wenn es um klassische Holzboote geht.
