CHRIS CRAFT COMMANDER FORUM ® .......A photo-intensive technical reference file and ongoing newsletter regarding the original fiberglass Chris-Craft Commander series. This is an independent not-for-profit and non-commercial web site, not affiliated with the Chris Craft Commander Club ~~ or ~~ Chris-Craft Corporation. Our mission here is to "have fun and share information" about the Commander series (and those associated fiberglass boats on the Chris-Craft family tree) for your individual personal use, and by doing so help promote the good name of Chris-Craft, and help preserve, restore, and appreciate Chris-Craft boats. The main reference feature is the ever expanding MASTER INDEX File which contains what we believe to be the world's largest collection of documentation photos and technical information on the Chris-Craft Commander line of boats, (like these original brochure scans, featuring the iconic first 38 Commander styled by Fred Hudson, and many of the great Dick Avery renditions that followed) , (a huge collection of Chris-Craft 427 tuning and specification information), and a few words about how to use the forum.

We extend to you a cordial "WELCOME ABOARD !" Come on in, make yourself at home, we are a friendly group of enthusiasts, and we also appreciate the classic Chris Craft Roamer, Corsair, and Lancer boats too , as they are all on the same family tree and share much in common !

      Well I now see I already posted those links at least twice already, so hey, let the fun begin! These boats with their V8 power and short wet exhaust really bark nicely. I have been getting all kinds of looks at the various marinas and waterfront restaurants I have visited in mine. One guy even asked me if mine was some sort of a retro rebuild, said it looked new, but then he saw the old motor and knew better. I took it as a compliment.

      If you pull up to a gas dock in this rig, everyone else in their fancy ski boats and newish looking runabouts that look like a half word jelly bean, will have motor-sound-envy when you start your motor. Everyone else sounds like a 120 Volt vacuum cleaner running on 60 volts, ha.

      Keep us posted, we HAVE the technology here.

      Regards,

      Paul
