All publicity is good... ..., publicity. No? Well, until a true Commandero [http://www.network54.com/Forum/424840/] shows up (and I know he/she will) - i'm keeping this thread "alive". {Paul, are u listening?} Don't worry,hep is on the way! Cheers, Eric
Thanks for the link reference Eric. Here's one that works! http://www.chriscraftcommander.com Hope the boat finds an appreciative owner. Interesting it is noted as a SF but has the aft rail and what looks like a custom enclosure at the helm. I am wondering if it is a true SF with the lowered aft deck, or if it is a Sedan like it looks like. Send the serial number if you can get it, or if the owner sees this, we'll look it up and post some comparables Regards, Paul Commanderland
For those trivia battles on the dock or at the bar, here's the steering wheel Chris Craft used on their 38' Sport Fismerman models. Only 70 true SF models were ever built, 25 in 1965, and 15 more during each year for three years thereafter. The boat for sale looks like a 38 Sedan, which is one FINE boat in it's own right. I think a lot of people may use the "Sport Fisherman" terminology as a generic statement, but for the original 38' Commander, it was a specific model in the Chris Craft lineup. Trivia for the day !
