The 2003 Grady-White Sportsman 180 is a center console built on the brand's SeaV² hull design, delivering a soft, dry ride even in choppy water. Powered by a 2014 Yamaha F150 four-stroke engine with approximately 700 hours, the boat cruises comfortably in the mid-20-knot range and reaches top speeds in the mid-40s. New Seastar trim tabs installed in 2024 help the boat run level and plane efficiently across varying conditions.
The layout combines fishing and cruising capability. Forward is a casting deck with storage and anchor locker, while the helm features a reversible seat with storage below. The cockpit includes an insulated fish box, rod racks and vertical rod holders under the gunwales, aft jump seats with cushions, a self-bailing sole with non-skid surface, and a swim platform with stainless ladder. The boat accommodates seven people and carries 54 gallons of fuel.
Electronics and equipment reflect recent upgrades. An upgraded Raymarine Axiom 12 multifunction display from 2023 provides HD sonar, GPS, and chartplotting. A Minn Kota trolling motor added in 2024 offers quiet control for inshore work. Additional gear includes a Standard Horizon VHF radio, Fusion Marine stereo system with subwoofer and amplifier, and the aforementioned trim tabs.
The boat has been professionally maintained throughout its ownership. A full 100-hour service was recently completed. The gelcoat exterior is free of oxidation, upholstery remains in excellent condition, and all electrical, mechanical, and navigation systems are operational. The boat was stored responsibly and flushed after each use.
