2022 Sea Fox 228 Commander

Step aboard this 228 Commander and the first thing you notice is how thoughtfully the helm area is laid out. Rock-solid footing, great sightlines, and everything within easy reach make longer runs far less tiring. The bow transitions quickly from lounging space to a secure casting deck, with coaming pads that save your knees when you’re working a fish. A surprisingly deep cockpit and tall freeboard give smaller crew members a reassuring sense of security. Under the gunwales you’ll find rod racks that keep gear out from underfoot, and the transom walkthrough makes boarding from the dock or the water a breeze. It’s the kind of boat that feels bigger than its length once you’re underway.

In local waters where conditions can change fast—from calm mornings to afternoon chop—the 228 Commander’s hull really earns its keep, softening the ride on those lumpy days. The size is ideal for running shallow creeks and nearshore structure while still having the confidence to stretch farther on the right forecast. Families will appreciate the secure freeboard and generous seating when cruising sandbars or hopping between waterfront spots. Anglers get a smart, efficient layout that makes drifting channels, slow-trolling edges, or anchoring on reef lines straightforward. Trailer-friendly dimensions mean you can easily launch at different ramps and follow the bite without needing a large tow rig.
