2026 Sportsman Open 262 Center Console

The 2026 Sportsman Open 262 is a 26.5-foot center console built on a fiberglass hull and finished in Storm Cloud Gray. Twin Mercury CMS 225XL V6 engines deliver 450 horsepower combined, powering the boat with strong acceleration and smooth cruising capability across coastal and offshore waters. The twin-engine setup enhances both maneuverability and reliability.

The layout maximizes usable space with a well-appointed helm console in fiberglass, topped by a fiberglass hardtop with LED lighting and finished in Jet Black underneath. Two 12-inch Garmin GPS screens with Wi-Fi integration handle navigation. The bow features a sundeck with table and cushions for lounging, while the leaning post aft carries dual premium chairs and integrated tackle storage. Serenity Sileather upholstery in Smoky Gray covers the main seating areas, and a cooler seat is integrated into the console.

At 26.5 feet long with a 9.4-foot beam, the boat balances spacious deck layout with manageable handling in tight marina conditions. The open configuration and storage integration suit both fishing and leisure use, with ample room to entertain guests or operate solo. Black powder coating throughout adds durability and visual coherence to the overall design.
