- In 1973-1974 bouwde de firma Ruffatti een groot nieuw orgel voor Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church in Fort Lauderdale. Het kerkgebouw werd in februari 1974 gewijd. Op dat moment was het orgel op zee, onderweg van Italië naar de USA. Op 5 januari 1975 kon het orgel in gebruik worden genomen. Het werd hierbij bespeeld door Diane Bish. Diane Bish speelde ook een belangrijke rol bij de bouw van het orgel, adviseur en leider van het orgelcomité.
- In 1989 is een nieuwe speeltafel geplaatst, geleverd door de firma Rodgers. In 2004 is het orgel uitgebreid met een aantal digitale registers, en drie complete digitale divisies (Solo, Ethereal en Celestial). De digitale uitbreiding is gerealiseerd door de firma Walker Technical Company. In 2022-2023 is het orgel gerestaureerd door Ruffatti.
