For Sale 2021 18x54 Super Drifters Power Drifter 115/80 Tiller Jet

[Brian Clemens]

This is not your standard jet boat/power drifter with a few custom touches and the shallowest running jet boat/power drifter on the market

Im selling my August 2021 18x54 Super Drifters Power Drifter with Jan 2021 Merc 115/80 tiller

Boat is in excellent working condition, runs extremely shallow 3" depending on conditions, great 1-3 man jet boat and is the perfect jet boat for our Nor Cal Waters. The only issues with the boat is the exterior paint job as there are some scratches and a few dents and dings here and there.

This boat has ran the Lower Feather at 650cfs down in Gridley to Palm Ave, 800cfs from Palm up in the high flow below Thermalito, 600 in the Low Flow Feather without a single issue. Its ran the Lower Yuba as low as 500cfs and made it up to the dam as low as 650cfs. I do not recommend running these flows without being extremely experienced at running jet boats and vast knowledge of the rivers you are running.

Theres 198hrs on the boat/motor as of 11/19/2023
Motor that is available is a Jan 2021 Mercury 115/80 Tiller Jet. With a transferable warranty

The only reason I am selling is cuz it wasn't exactly what I had originally built. There were a few things left out that I really wanted and unfortunately for me they were pretty important things for my work. But she runs extremely well and this is my second 18x54 super drifters power drifter built by Mark Chandler and my 3rd will be from him as well.

What it will come with or on it
18x54 jet
.125 bottom with .125 UHMW Bottom welded washer connection

the Jan 2021 Merc 115/80 Tiller Merc thats currently on the boat with 198hrs on it. It also has the full platinum warranty upgrade and goes to 2029. Buyer pays transfer fee to transfer protection plan into their name. I think its $110 per their website.

It will not come with oar system, anchor or the yeti as seen in the pics.

I am asking $35k, firm. No trades, No games, NO JOY RIDES, serious inquiries only.
Currently there is a 2yr wait for a boat from Chandler custom fab and you are looking at over 40k for this set up.

I know Im forgetting some stuff with the boat, but its fully loaded and ready to hit the water.
More pics available upon request

Thanks for viewing

I've been in this boat and what Brian describes it can do is accurate. It is a sweet rig and perfect for all of our valley rivers. If I didn't have something somewhat similar, I'd buy it.

Thanks Boomer4 for the additional input. It's greatly appreciated. Some ppl can't believe this boat can run in 3" of water, but I got pics to back that statement up. Of course its all about the bottom contour/substrate and driver ability. I've ran it slightly skinnier by myself with no gear and 6gal of gas, but if I stated anything less that 3" I know ppl would think I'm fibbing a bunch. 3" is legit as it can get.
