MANY THANKS to everyone who has contributed to the information in these files. This forum will always be a work in progress. Its a way to file away all of my Commander information for personal use, and its also a way to share it with anyone else who may be interested, or who may need the info (for their personal and non-commercial purposes), or may want to post, ask questions, etc. Because much of the information on the forum is not checked for accuracy, represents opinions in some cases from unknown sources, and may represent a safety or personal/financial liability if acted upon, the information in this forum is offered with the very best of intentions, but it MUST be validated by the user before being implemented for utilization. If you act upon any information obtained from the database here on this forum or from the membership you do so at your own risk. If anyone sees a link in this index that does not work, of finds any inaccuracies, please post a note and Ill try to fix it!
Regards, all the best, Paul

This is a listing of the special Photos of the Day we've had as a feature spot on the forum. These photos are TOO GOOD TO PUT AWAY, so we're starting this feature page, sort of an extension of the Commander Hall of Fame! The write-up that accompanied the photo is also listed, along with a direct link back to the thread. This is sure to become a real hit in the future, as we continue to add really special photos!

Enjoy!

The 38’ Commander, the icon of the series. Here is a link to all the Commander models.

The following four images were posted during the week of June 19, 2006 to honor the recent loss of Warren Pateman, from Australia, who embodied the best of integrity, Aussie spirit, and boating in general.








A celebration for a productive and engaging life, but sadness that it was cut so short. Warren Pateman not only set an example of how to work on a magnificent boat reconstruction, he also set high standards for integrity. He will be greatly missed.
Here is a tribute to Warren, and links to over 100 photographs of his incredible Chris Craft Commander project.
