Overview
The year was 1941, an era defined by grace, elegance, and the pursuit of leisurely pleasures. It was during this time that the Chris-Craft 17' Deluxe Barrel-Back Runabout was introduced to the world, a finely crafted masterpiece that captured the essence of an era long gone. Today, we have the opportunity to marvel at the Miss Fallen Leaf, a shining example of this iconic vessel, which underwent a complete restoration in 1998, bringing it back to its former glory. Hailing from Lake Tahoe she has never been splashed in anything but fresh water. Miss Fallen Leaf is currently stored on an immaculate custom trailer in Newport Beach California.
