I am interested in finding more information about a particular antique Chris-Craft. Where should I start?
Unfortunately, we have very little technical data for boats built prior to 2001. Here are some resources that you might find helpful. • The Mariners’ Museum in Newport News, Virginia has an extensive collection of memorabilia, data, drawings and photographs. You can also e-mail them at chriscraft@mariner.org. • The Chris-Craft Antique Boat Club has lots of information on their Web site, including a Wiki all about antique boats (add your knowledge here!), and archived data, drawings, photographs and articles. • The Chris-Craft Commander Club has a broad base of owners and experts on that model range. • The Chris-Craft Commander Forum has many more details and pictures about Commanders. • Chris-Craft: The Essential Guide catalogs every model ever built by the company. You can find drawings, a range of hull numbers, specs and more. The book is written by Jerry Conrad, the Chris-Craft Archivist at The Mariners’ Museum.
