"Weekend" Commanders
Weekend Commanders range 19 feet to 28 feet length and are excellent boats for weekend fun. Some are pure runabouts reminiscent of the boating style Chris Craft helped form in the 1920s.
Others are more suited to small sport fishermen or entertaining guests on short cruises. The largest boats in this range also provide for occasional overnight capabilities. The 19' and 23' Commanders feature deep-V hulls designed by Jim Wynne and Walt Walters, of offshore racing fame, and are especially well suited for moderately rough water. The 30' Commanders have hulls designed by C. Ray Hunt, and are highly sought after for offshore fishing due to their deep-V hulls and superb rough water characteristics. Numerous options and variations existed throughout the entire model line, such as the 27' Commander which was available in an open "Sportsman" configuration with single or twin V8 motors.
The models in the range are:
- 19' Super Sport
- 23'
- 27'
- 27' Sports Express
- 28' Sports Express
- 30' Sportsman
- 30' Tournament Fisherman
