2026 Jasper Marine Defender 22

The Jasper Marine Defender 22 is a 27-foot aluminum runabout built for versatility across fishing, watersports, and cruising. Its deep-V hull design delivers a stable, dry ride in varied conditions, from offshore to lakes and coastal waters. The lightweight aluminum construction and shallow draft allow beaching and access to shallow areas while remaining easy to tow and launch.

The boat features an open bow with forward seating and a self-bailing cockpit, with an optional enclosed cuddy cabin available. Layout prioritizes usable deck space for fishing, diving, watersports, or casual day use, with comfortable seating positioned forward and aft. The boat includes one head.

Powered by a single 300-horsepower Mercury gasoline engine, the Defender 22 planes quickly and cruises at 30 knots. The design balances performance with practical handling and storage, making it capable for both serious anglers and families looking for an adaptable day boat.
