A VacuFlush head system enhances onboard comfort, and comprehensive illumination—including courtesy, mood, underwater, machinery, spreader lights and a forward light bar—extends your day into the evening. Macerated fish boxes, plus both fresh and saltwater washdowns, make clean-up effortless after a successful run.

Overview

Meet the 288 Commander—equipped for serious offshore fishing and thoughtfully appointed for family cruising. As the first Sea Fox model to feature side-door access in the cockpit, boarding is exceptionally easy, while the deep, secure layout and generous seating invite everyone aboard with confidence.

Standard features are comprehensive and purposeful. You’ll find a 12‑volt power point; an anchor windlass with controls at the helm and a bow switch; an anchor compartment with roller chute, chafe plate, safety strap and rope access; a battery switch; automatic 1100 GPH bilge pumps—one primary and one backup; a silver boot stripe available on the White Pearl hull; bulkhead fittings for hydraulic hoses in the splashwell; and a self‑bailing cockpit with stainless‑steel grates and side‑door access with a stainless frame. Construction includes a composite hull and deck, while the console presents a black acrylic face, a 40-inch coffin‑box lounger with armrests, a compass, a dash shroud and dash space for flush‑mount electronics compatible with two 12‑inch displays, plus an “SF” backlit logo, a lockable console door with a magnetic bottle opener, a finished interior with a fiberglass inner liner, a footrest/storage insert and full digital gauge instrumentation—single multifunction digital gauges with tachometer, speedometer, volt, fuel and fuel‑management readouts, backlighting and push‑button functions for XCA twin motors—along with a horn, two portlights and a sink with a Corian countertop. On deck, a 65‑qt Yeti cooler rides on a mechanical slide‑out; fourteen cup holders are thoughtfully placed; two insulated in‑floor fish boxes drain overboard; fuel/water separators, isothalic gelcoat with a vinylester barrier coat on hull and deck, and one flip‑up cockpit jump seat with below‑deck storage underscore durability and utility. Lighting includes two LED courtesy lights, livewell lighting and LED navigation lights mounted in the rub rail. The pressurized, aerated livewell holds 60 gallons, is rated at 1100 GPH and features an aquarium window. Practical touches continue with pre‑rigging for three batteries for twin engines, a pump‑house compartment in the cockpit sole, gunwale rod storage, a sand‑grip deck surface, stainless‑steel closeout rings for rod holders, stainless fasteners and compression latches, six pull‑up cleats, a rear telescoping boarding ladder, a recessed bow grab rail, eight stainless rod holders, a stainless rub rail, a stainless steering wheel with turning knob, stainless through‑hulls, through‑bolted grab rails and a stainless transom saver. Handling is precise thanks to SeaStar electronic power steering (EPS) with tilt, while in‑sole storage with a 5‑gallon bucket and a bow storage/fish box keep gear tidy. Comfort extends below with an electric toilet and a 12‑gallon holding tank, and control is effortless with recessed trim‑tab switches. Overhead, the Ultima hard top crowns the package with two recessed LED spreader lights, two molded‑in storage boxes, one forward safety storage box, a JL Audio stereo with USB/MPS connector, two 10‑inch subwoofers, six 7.7‑inch speakers and two amplifiers, two LED lights with power‑cycle red, blue and white, seven rod holders, an illuminated switch panel, a moonroof with sliding glass and reinforced pads for dual antennas and Garmin radar. Upholstery highlights include a folding rear bench seat, two fold‑out bow backrests, bow cushions with curved backrests, coaming pads, faux‑teak decking and marine‑grade vinyl with diamond stitching. A Limited Lifetime hull warranty, plus fresh‑water washdown with a 26‑gallon tank and raw‑water washdown, and a glass windshield complete this capable, family‑friendly offshore platform.
