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 !

Oregon coast gets dock debris from Japan's tsunami

Boaters in the Pacific NW have another issue to worry about now, and that is a massive plume of debris now just hitting our Pacific coastline. A few weeks ago a large steel abandonded fishing boat arrived.

The following is from this morning's Oregonian http://photos.oregonlive.com/oregonian/2012/06/oregon_coast_gets_dock_debris_2.html

NEWPORT, OREGON - June 6, 2012 - A massive dock with Japanese lettering that washed ashore on Newport's Agate Beach has locals wondering if this is it: the beginning of the tsunami debris expected to arrive from Japan any day. Scientists from OSU and BLM agents inspect the dock for clues to it's origin as a minus tide provided access.
State parks says it's too soon to speculate, but there is Asian writing on the dock.

Regards,

Paul
