MISS SUSIE, our 1960 45’ Constellation (Hull # CAA-45-15A), was completed on December 22, 1959 at Chris-Craft’s Algonac plant in Michigan.  After she spent twelve years in the Chicago area, a family friend purchased her in August of 1972, trucked to Seattle and renamed her OH NO! Overreacting to the oil crisis in late 1973, that friend sold her to my father in February 1974.  He renamed her WY WURRIE and she cruised northwest waters until my father’s passing in 1978.  Later that year, I sold her to another of his friends who renamed her FLYING FISH. He proudly owned her for the next thirty-one years, after which we (Susie and I) purchased her in October 2009.  After a proper renaming ceremony, she was christened MISS SUSIE and has been simultaneously undergoing a restoration while proudly cruising about
