Hello,
    If your Pearson Commander is still on the market, we would like to talk with you about her. Also, do you have any more photos of her that can be emailed to us? Thank you.

Bill,
   We tried your suggestion to get in touch with the owner of this post, but have been unsuccessful. We were unable to find the email link you mentioned and have not had any contact with the owner of this Commander.
 
Respectfully,

Apparently my browser can't take this link.

I'll try again when I have more patience.

Feel free to email me. Is the boat in the water? My wife isn't sold on the look but I have always liked the Commander so getting her up to see it might be helpful.

Cheers,
Clint

It is with a good bit of ambivalence that I announce this boat has been sold.  

Don't be surprised if you see posts from me in the not too distant future looking for another Commander! -- they are, after all, the perfect boats in lots of ways.  

Thanks for everyone's interest and support.  

David
