2026 Sportsman Open 252 Center Console

The 2026 Sportsman Open 252 is a 25-foot fiberglass center console built for offshore work and extended cruising. Twin Yamaha F150XSA2 outboards provide the dual-engine reliability and control needed for serious fishing and docking in tight quarters. The hull combines Storm Cloud Gray sides with a white bottom, topped by a fiberglass hard top finished in matching gray with integrated LED lighting and white powder coating.

The cockpit centers on a fiberglass console with an integrated cooler seat and FG liner for storage. Seating includes a premium dual-chair leaning post with flip-up bolsters, upholstered in Serenity Sileather in Icecap White. A removable bow sundeck with cushions converts the forward space for lounging, while a telescoping ski tow bar offers versatility. A porcelain head with overboard discharge and pump-out, plus an electric windlass with anchor, roller, and 300 feet of rope, handle the practical demands of extended time on the water.

Electronics are comprehensive. Twin Garmin GPSMAP 1243xsv 12-inch displays with Wi-Fi and Bluechart G3 cartography provide navigation and charting, backed by a Garmin GMR Fantom 18x Radome for long-range radar. A Garmin Apollo RA670 marine stereo handles audio, and a ProMariner ProTournament Elite 3 four-bank battery charger manages power systems. The deep-entry hull design delivers a stable platform that handles heavy water while feeling substantially larger than its 25-foot length.
