Commander 191

[Commander227]

I was at a party at one of the local yacht clubs the other day and ran into my cousins uncle who owned Commander 198 in the late 60's. I remember he used to race with a mop sticking out of his flag holder and once went 4 years without finishing below first. He and the boat were in a Pepsi commercial that ran about the time of the famous Pepsi commercial with the puppies.
Anyway.... anyone know the whereabouts of old 198, just curious.

I just found the ad on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_fjZHcs2bY&NR=1

Totally cool for the nostalgia.

As far as the pepsi goes? I like to toss mine out, keep the ice and pour a good helping of JD in.

Amazing... I actually remember the commercial.

The Commander's 15 minutes of fame! (Or 15 seconds, rather)
