These boats scatter too widely by age to fit a rate we can stand behind.
What moves the price
Each factor compares boats of the same age, so a newer boat's premium isn't counted twice. Five boats or more on each side, or we say so.
These boats scatter too widely by age to fit a rate.
Diesel boats ask about 135% more than petrol ones, age for age.
Boats with fewer hours than usual for their age ask about 6.7% less than those with more.
Asking prices, not sold. Factors can overlap, so treat these as a guide to what the market asks, not a formula.
Time to sell
listed so far: the median of 21 boats seen on two or more dates
have cut their asking price: 4 of 17 boats seen at least 14 days apart
median size of a cut · withheld: fewer than five cuts to measure
These are asking prices, and asking is not selling. Days listed so far is not time to sell: a boat still listed has not sold, and we do not yet record when a listing ends. We have not measured how far sale prices land below asking; the methodology says what we can and cannot measure.
Cost to keep
A year on a South Coast marina berth, insured at the Gauge Value, in pounds. An estimate from published rates, not a quote.
Fuel is not included: no cited source gives the engine hours a typical owner runs in a year.
Questions about the Commander

How long does a Chris-Craft Commander stay on the market?
We do not measure time to sell yet. Across 21 boats seen on two or more dates, the median time between first and last sighting is 106 days so far. 24% of 17 boats seen at least 14 days apart have cut their asking price.
How fast does a Chris-Craft Commander lose value?
These boats scatter too widely by age to fit a rate we can stand behind, so we do not publish one.
Are these sold prices?
No. They are asking prices observed on public listings, restated at today's market level. We have not yet measured how far sale prices land below asking, so we do not publish a figure for it.
About the Commander
The boats behind this page were built between 1965 and 1987 and have been listed since Aug 2020, most often in the US market. 24% of the boats seen at least 14 days apart have cut their asking price.
How we measure: we read public listings from brokers and marketplaces, count a boat once when it appears on several sites, store its asking price each time it changes, and restate older asking prices at today's market level. We never republish a listing, a photograph or a seller. Every figure is recomputed nightly and dated; below five boats we publish nothing. The 50 boats here were listed in the US. Full methodology
