We interrupt the Century countdown to Dora for this special eBay auction.
Eli Lilly was not a man to mess with. He ordered his boat and was told it would be possible, and that was that. 
If you are into u22′s.. and who isn’t… and have been eyeball’n a sedan, you may want to look into that 401 K loosing money, cause this is the one. It really doesn’t matter how much money it’s worth.. Because it’s worth whatever the other guy is willing to pay. This is more than another U 22.. It’s a one of a kind, original condition with paper trail and fancy owner type U22.
If there ever was a boat for a collection this is it. Made as a regular U22 in 1942 yes 1942.. While Chris Craft was building boats for the War.. This boat is the result of some letter writing and shows a hint of how the Chris Craft Company did things when it came to big customers. I could pretend like I know what I am talking about, which I don’t. So click here to the auction and read on …. and on… and on……. and then bid… When you win it. Tell them Woody Boater sent you, then invite me up, over or down to smell that old varnish.. Then we can go on and on ….and on…
"We want the boat only if equipped with streamlined, ventilated cabin.." Eli Lilly
