Rare California-Built Commander Jet Boat — Turnkey and Ready to Run
Here is a rare opportunity to own a well-maintained 1989 Commander jet boat, hand-built in California and now available in Byron Center, MI. At 22 feet with a fiberglass hull, this boat has been kept in very good overall condition and is described by the seller as needing nothing — a true turnkey package ready for the water.
The interior is clean with no rips or tears, and the boat comes with a custom-built trailer fitted specifically to this hull, with tires reported to be in very good condition. Clean title is in hand.
KEY FEATURES:
- Chevy 454 Built to 450 HP — The heart of this boat is a Chevrolet 454 cubic-inch big-block V8 built to 450 HP specifications. Big-block inboard power in a jet boat of this size delivers serious thrust and a driving experience unlike anything a modern production boat offers. With only 221 hours on the clock, this engine has plenty of life remaining.
-
- Berkley Jet Drive — This boat is equipped with a Berkley jet drive, one of the most respected names in jet propulsion. Jet drives eliminate the lower unit and propeller, meaning no underwater appendages to damage in shallow water, rivers, or rocky environments. They are also known for their durability and ease of maintenance when properly cared for.
-
- Custom-Built Trailer Included — The seller notes the trailer was custom-fabricated specifically to fit this hull, with tires in very good condition. A properly fitted trailer is a meaningful advantage for a boat of this age and custom nature, ensuring safe transport and correct support for the hull.
