The Southport 30 FE is a 30-foot fiberglass sport fisherman built for both serious fishing and extended cruising. Twin Mercury Verado 350 HP V10 engines deliver 700 horsepower total, pushing the boat to a top speed of 52 knots and a cruising speed of 31 knots. The hull is finished in ice blue gelcoat, and the T-top features powder-coated stainless steel hardware with a matching ice blue gelcoat underside.
The open deck layout prioritizes fishing and entertaining space with an expanded forward cockpit, aft deck, and a redesigned mezzanine seating area. An insulated transom fishbox supplements the in-deck storage, while a dive door with integrated ladder adds practical access to the water. The console interior offers comfortable accommodations with a manually adjustable forward table and plush white upholstery with grey piping and quilted stitching throughout. Teak arm-rest caps and high-gloss varnish details provide refined finishes.
Electronics center on dual Garmin 9217XSV and 9217 displays paired with VHF and AIS communications. A B175 Chirp transducer feeds sonar data to the systems, backed by dual four-foot antennas. A Mercury joystick control system integrates a Vetus brushless variable-speed bow thruster for precise maneuvering. Triple underwater lights in white and blue illuminate the transom, while a battery charger system rounds out the electrical package.
