2003 Commander Boats 2100LX
« on: February 07, 2008, 06:06:34 PM »
Hey folks,
   New to the board and just got my first jet.  Commander 21 footer with a MarinePower 454.  Beautiful boat, and in one trip I was pretty happy with it.  Problem is, I can't find much literature about the MarinePower engine, and NOTHING on Commander Boats.  I actually went to their "showroom" in Perris today... pretty sleepy little venue to say the least.  Anyone familiar with the boat or it's engine?  Dont bombard me with how much it sucks, guys, I already bought it!  BTW, great threads here, I know I'm gonna learn alot!

No pics yet, hopefully next weekend.  Thanks for the responses.  Question, does anyone know where to find electronic owner's manuals for the Marinepower 454?  I'm especially curious about the exhaust/cooling, as I'm just working off of my own tracing tracing of the hoses and what I've picked up on this site (you guys rule...).  Also, I don't see many later model or open bow jet boats in the readers rides... what gives?  I know they're all over the place!

Taco'd "a person or people that show up with one lake lice and a family of 50 and cram 3 people at a time on it with no disregard to boating rules or ethics. Usualy crap in toilets and throw shit paper in trash cans. Hang out at the boat ramp like its a swimming hole. Have zero insurance on anything they own and dont give two shits less about your property."

Okay guys, went to the lake today.  I think I got the right boat... perfect for the ol' lady to cruise in right now, just enough for me to tool on, and something to totally roach once I blow the first engine!  Actually, I couldn't be happier for now, it's turn key as hell!  How long will it take for that to get boring, though, that's the question!  ha ha
Here's a couple of pics:

The last pic is pretty cool lookin' at us throw a roost, over my buddies engine... We think his boat is a Woodbridge, but it's got a nice 502 puttin' out about 650 h.p.  He just redid all his flooring, replaced his stringers, the whole nine yards.  It rocks along pretty damned good... yep, a pretty good day on Ol' El Cap!

Flytime,
            If I'm not mistaken, you were pullin' into El Cap Sunday as we were getting ready to leave... or there is another Carribean just like yours.  Was that you?

Bob's in storage.... His boat is in really good shape. Commander does a good job. You should join us out at Parker June 13-15.
