2022 Sportsman Open 242 Center Console

This 2022 Sportsman Open 242 is a center console fishing boat powered by a Yamaha V-Max 250 hp outboard engine with 220 hours of operation. The fiberglass hull features a storm cloud finish with white bottom paint. The boat rides on a Venture aluminum trailer.

The boat is built around serious fishing capability. It has a standard fiberglass hard-top for weather protection and a full-size console with inner liner. The helm includes a Garmin 12.43-inch GPS display and Garmin VHF radio. Upgraded leaning post seats provide seating with generous space behind them. Trim tabs and a bow table are installed for easier boat handling and convenience.

A 25-gallon livewell on the starboard side supports live bait and catch management. Additional equipment includes a windlass and a Turbo Swing feature. The boat's design accommodates engines up to 300 hp, making the current 250 hp installation well-suited to the hull.
