The 2027 Sportsman Masters 247OE is built for boaters who want true versatility without sacrificing comfort, fishability, or performance. Designed to handle everything from shallow-water runs and inshore fishing to cruising Tampa Bay and spending the day at the sandbar, the 247OE blends serious capability with a more open, family-friendly layout.

The Open Edition design features a recessed forward bow with increased freeboard, an integrated chaise lounge, and a large insulated coffin box that provides excellent storage or fish-box capacity. Multiple livewells, generous rod storage, a spacious cockpit, and a well-designed helm make this boat equally at home chasing fish or entertaining family and friends.

Seakeeper Ride helps keep the boat running flatter and more controlled in changing conditions, while Sportsman's composite construction and integrated systems provide the solid, refined feel the brand is known for. The fiberglass hardtop, premium upholstery, freshwater and raw-water washdowns, swim platform, and easy-access service areas add comfort and convenience throughout the boat.

With powerful outboard options, shallow-water capability, advanced Garmin electronics, and available Yamaha Helm Master joystick control, the 247OE delivers an impressive combination of performance and confidence at the helm.

If you're looking for a premium bay boat that can comfortably transition from the flats to open water without giving up family-friendly features, this boat deserves a closer look.
