Complete Restoration 2016
Engines: Rebuilt 2016
OEM: Chris Craft 350 Small Block V8, Model: Hours:
Excellent Condition!
These boats were designed specifically as heavily built deep-V offshore fishing rigs for rough water. Chris Craft built these to compete against Bertram and only produced 75 hulls from 1971 - 1973. As a Classic Fiberglass boat it has been extensively restored to become a perfect fishable cruiser. The design provides a large flat cockpit area for entertaining with the twin engines below. The complete restoration of the teak and holly cabin has a tuck and roll lounge, entertainment galley and lower helm. The V berth provides a sleeping / storage cabin with a stand up porta potty. The fly bridge second helm gives a clear view for all day cruising.

Tom I would add the “model” to your post “1972 _____ Chris-Craft Commander” and the video description- I’m thinking it’s the 28’ but I had to look to see if it was the 27? Also asking price?
Interesting, I have the same model, restored / repowered back in 2011. Also missing its bridge windscreen. What props does yours have, and what kind of speed do you get out of them?
Thank you Whitney I added Model and Price
Hi James, I don't know what props are on it. Maybe I can find out in the folder of records. I think I cruise around 24 mph at 3000 rpm. The boat survey report says 29 mph at 3500 rpm
Hi All! Price is flexible, boat is in excellent condition. Kid going to college, need this sold before the season starts!
