Reviews
Anthony Jackson – Seattle, WA
I wasn’t planning to buy a boat this year, but after visiting Cascadia Marine and seeing their setup on Lake Union, I couldn’t resist. The staff were genuine and knowledgeable, and the boat speaks for itself. If you’re in Washington State and want a Chris-Craft, this is the place, ask for Dennis

Got my Chris-Craft in Seattle and took it out on Lake Washington that same weekend. Really good spot

Picked up my Chris-Craft Calypso 32 from their Lake Union shop — amazing boat, amazing team. Seattle needed a dealer like this.
