2026 Sportsman Open 232 Center Console

The 2026 Sportsman Open 232 is a 23-foot center console built as a dual-purpose fishing and family boat. Powered by a single 300-hp Yamaha engine, it combines classic fishing capabilities with modern comfort and ride quality in a trailerable package. The hull features an advanced fiberglass stringer system without wood, backed by a 10-year warranty, and is fitted with a 106-gallon fuel tank.

The layout prioritizes both function and versatility. Fishing amenities include a 25-gallon aquarium livewell with high-speed pickup, four flush-mount gunwale rod holders, under-gunwale rod racks, and dedicated anchor storage with stern anchor box. The boat seats up to six across a premium dual helm chair, bow cushions with bolsters, cockpit bolsters, and a rear fold-down seat. A 20-quart console cooler seat provides additional storage and convenience.

The deck is finished with Grip Tex non-skid and includes a swim platform with four-step ladder and insulated bow storage. The hardtop is fiberglass with integrated D-tubing frame and navigation lights. The console features a tempered glass windshield with vent, dual battery configuration, hydraulic tilt steering, a stainless steel wheel, and lockable storage.
