Chris Craft Commander 37 – Classic Flybridge Motorboat with Spacious Layout and Dual Steering
The Chris Craft Commander 37 is an American-made motor yacht, built in 1986 by the renowned Chris Craft shipyard. This model is known for its robust fiberglass construction, wide hull, and distinctive flybridge. With a length of 11 meters and a width of 4 meters, this boat offers a spacious living environment, both indoors and outdoors. The V-shaped hull ensures stable sailing characteristics, even at higher speeds or in open waters.
Dimensions and Construction
The boat has a draft of 65 cm and an air draft of 4 meters, making it suitable for various sailing areas, including inland waters, lakes, ponds, and rivers. The interior headroom is 1.85 meters, providing ample freedom of movement inside. The hull is made of fiberglass with a woven glass fiber structure, contributing to the ship's strength and durability.
Layout and Accommodation
The Chris Craft Commander 37 features an interior accommodation with four berths: two fixed and two additional berths. The layout includes a dining area, shower, electric toilet, refrigerator, freezer, hot water system, and a stove. The kitchen is equipped with an electric hob, which requires some attention at the time of description. The boat is equipped with hot air heating, making the stay on board comfortable even in cooler seasons.
Engine and Technology
This ship is equipped with two Fiat Aifo CP3-M diesel engines, each with 165 hp, both with electric start. The engines have 3800 and 4000 operating hours, respectively. The cruising speed is around 15 km/h, with a maximum speed of approximately 20 km/h. The fuel consumption is about 10 liters per hour per engine. The fuel tank has a capacity of 400 liters, and the water tank holds 350 liters.
The boat is equipped with a Vetus electric bow thruster (75 kgf), which facilitates maneuvering in harbors and narrow waters. The electrical installation includes a battery charger, alternator, inverter, voltmeter, shore power connection, and solar panels. There are a total of six batteries on board, operating on 12v, 24v, and 220v systems.
Steering and Navigation
The Chris Craft Commander 37 is equipped with dual steering: the ship can be operated both inside and on the flybridge. Steering is done via a tiller, and the ship has a dual rudder system. Various instruments are available on board, including a fuel gauge, oil pressure gauge, and temperature gauge.
Exterior Equipment and Safety
On deck, the boat is equipped with a bimini, outdoor deck cushions, cockpit table, pulpit and stern seats, fenders, lines, a guardrail, swim platform, and swim ladder. The cockpit is self-draining, contributing to onboard safety. An electrically operated bilge pump is available for draining any water that may have entered. The anchor is secured with a chain.
Registration and Documentation
The boat is registered in Poland under registration number POL0001BFZ, and VAT has been paid. Documentation is available in the form of invoices related to new equipment and spare parts. The last antifouling treatment and maintenance out of the water are scheduled for 2025.
Additional Information
The boat is sold without a trailer. Some cosmetic issues have been noted, including the absence of beds in the fore cabin and a sagging in the upholstery above the electric hob. The boat has mainly been used for pleasure cruising, vacations, and weekend trips. According to the owner, the ship offers comfort and safety, thanks in part to the wide hull and the flybridge.
