2022 Sea Fox 248 Commander

Step aboard and you’ll notice how the 248 Commander feels bigger than her length suggests. High freeboard and a generous beam give you a secure, dry ride when the chop stands up, while wide walkways let crew move from bow to stern without crowding. The helm seating offers real support for long runs, and the rear bench folds away to open up a serious fishing cockpit when it’s time to get lines in. Thoughtful touches, like toe rails, coaming pads, and easy-to-reach battery switches, show that this layout was drawn by people who actually fish. When the day slows down, that same cockpit becomes an easy space for hanging out, swimming, and sunset cruises.

The 248 Commander shines in this region’s mixed conditions, where a calm morning can quickly turn into a lumpy afternoon run home. The sharp entry and substantial bow flare help knock down spray, keeping the crew comfortable on longer runs to offshore structure or barrier islands. Shallow draft and a sensible overall length make it equally at home working inlets, sandbars, and back bays without sacrificing offshore confidence. Plenty of insulated storage lets you pack for full days on the water, from beach gear to serious tackle. Add in the efficient single outboard and you get the range and reliability that suit local runs to fishing grounds, waterfront restaurants, and quiet coves alike.
