2026 Jasper Marine Defender 22

The Jasper Marine Defender 22 is a 27-foot aluminum runabout built for serious multi-purpose use. Its deep-V hull design delivers a dry, stable ride in variable conditions, whether offshore, on lakes, or coastal waters. The lightweight aluminum construction keeps the boat easy to tow and launch while maintaining commercial-grade durability.

The open bow layout prioritizes usable space and accessibility, with forward and aft seating that accommodates fishing, diving, watersports, and day cruising equally well. A shallow draft and beachable design allow it to reach sandbars and coves inaccessible to deeper-hulled boats. The self-bailing cockpit adds practical protection during active use.

Power comes from a single 300 hp Mercury gasoline engine, capable of cruising at 30 knots and planing quickly in a range of sea states. The boat handles chop with composure while remaining responsive and manageable for operators of varying experience.
