Spend more time running confidently across Tampa Bay and less time dealing with setup, cleanup, or second-guessing your boat.

Many owners reach a point where their current setup feels like a compromise—either it’s not equipped enough to handle changing conditions, or it requires too much effort to stay ready. This 2024 Sportsman 262 Open removes that friction with a well-balanced layout, modern helm technology, and a condition that reflects careful ownership. With twin Yamaha 200s showing just 52 hours, you’re stepping into a platform that’s barely broken in and ready for immediate use. High and dry storage has helped preserve both systems and finish, reducing the typical wear that slows down ownership enjoyment.

At the helm, dual Garmin 1243 XSV displays paired with a CHIRP transducer provide clear, reliable navigation and fish-finding without guesswork. The addition of a Garmin VHF keeps communication simple and dependable offshore or inshore. SeaKeeper Ride auto trim tabs actively adjust underway, improving ride quality and reducing the need for constant manual correction—especially useful when conditions shift quickly around the Skyway or offshore runs.

The upgraded stereo system with amplifiers and subwoofers adds usable sound at cruising speed, not just at the dock. A razor light bar extends visibility for early departures or late returns, removing hesitation around timing your trips. On the fishing side, two macerated in-floor fish boxes and an additional macerated bow storage box simplify cleanup and keep the deck organized throughout the day.

Practical features like the through-hull windlass reduce effort when anchoring on sandbars or near Egmont Key, while the electric head with overboard discharge adds convenience for longer days on the water.

This is a well-cared-for, like-new vessel designed to reduce workload while increasing confidence and usability every time you leave the dock.
