JawsOrca Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Wow.. thanks for posting.. I enjoyed looking through the pictures! It seemed a good idea and maybe should make a bit of a comeback.. although I think it looks more like a boat than a caravan so I guess you can just tow a boat around but iI guess the squareness gives it more space hence the caravan idea. Good luck with your sale.. 5k sounds like you are giving it away! (have you made sure you aren't? surely these are rare and maybe sort after things?. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Even though production ceased many years ago, Caracruisers still have quite a following. They have their own forum with quite a lot of info, though new posts have got less. http://dawncraftowners.com/phpBB3/viewforum.php?f=26&sid=8e5c0df544be3f05d0d1dec7b43f71d2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
