2025 Sportsman Masters 227 Bay Boat
About This Yacht
The 2025 Sportsman Masters 227 is a 22-foot bay boat powered by a Yamaha F250XB outboard. The hull combines advanced fiberglass construction with a fiberglass stringer system and SportTech fabrication process. Its Shadow Grey hull with white bottom is finished with white powder coat, and the interior features Ash Grey marine silicone upholstery. A tandem axle aluminum trailer is included.
The cockpit prioritizes functionality with an expanded layout behind the leaning post. The redesigned console incorporates d-tubing frame construction and an integrated tempered glass windshield with vent. A fiberglass hard-top with matching underside color provides overhead protection. The helm features hydraulic tilt steering, a helm pad, and a 10-inch hydraulic jack plate. Seating includes a premium deluxe leaning post with flip-up bolsters and removable bow backrest, plus a rear fold-up bench seat with storage.
Navigation and communication systems include a Garmin GPSMAP 1243xsv 12-inch MFD with Bluechart G3, Garmin GT12M 350w CHIRP transducer, Garmin VHF 115 radio, and compass. Electronics integration runs through SportLink, with Maretron digital switching and dual battery configuration. Audio consists of a Garmin Apollo RA670 premium stereo and JL Audio speakers. Additional console features include LED interior lighting, two wireless phone chargers, USB/USB-C inputs, lockable storage, and trolling motor plug and harness.
Storage and fishing capability emphasize access and capacity. Dual 25-gallon rear livewells include aquarium and recirculating systems with Pro-Air, plus a 20-quart console livewell seat. The bow holds a large casting deck with 10-rod lockable storage and fish box. Four flush-mount rod holders, king fish rod holders, and under-gunwale reel pads support tackle. A 70-gallon fuel tank with sensor, 13-gallon freshwater tank with washdown, and raw water washdown complete the systems. Deck features include yacht-style non-skid, six stainless steel cup holders, self-bailing cockpit, recessed bow hand rails, and total access rear hatch. The boat carries a 10-year hull warranty and NMMA certification.
