2026 Sportsman Open 282 Center Console

The 2026 Sportsman Open 282 is a 28-foot center console built on a fiberglass hull and powered by three gasoline engines. The open layout accommodates both fishing and recreational cruising without requiring reconfiguration between uses, with clear deck flow that keeps movement and access straightforward whether you're running solo or with crew.

The helm features a Yamaha autopilot for extended-run stability and a clean control layout that keeps navigation within easy reach. A Mastervolt charging system manages onboard power consistently throughout the day, supporting electronics, pumps, and accessories without drop-off during longer outings. The boat includes a factory-installed trolling motor harness that integrates cleanly without requiring aftermarket rigging.

The single head rounds out the practical accommodation package. Designed for the waters around Tampa Bay and coastal Florida, this center console trades constant adjustment for systems that maintain performance from launch to last stop.
