Bow

01 / 04

Comfortable Bow Layout

Designed with entertainment and versatility in mind — wrap-around seating with removable backrests, two large insulated fish boxes, drink holders and speakers for your favorite tunes.

Removable Bow Table / Filler Board

A large bow table is the centerpiece. The included leg stores neatly inside the head when not in use. At lunch, screw in the leg and mount the table — the tabletop also serves as the base for the sun pad cushion.

Bow Anchor Locker

Stow the anchor in a large dedicated compartment with a molded catch to keep it from falling in, plus a rope cut-out on the lid for neatly storing extra line.

Bow Storage

Two large insulated storage boxes at the bow give plenty of stowage and double as fish boxes or coolers.

Paddle-Style Latches

A newly designed paddle-style latch allows easy access to lids even when the sunpad is in use.

In-Deck Storage Box

At the center of the bow, a very spacious in-floor storage box keeps gear out of sight and out of the way.

Bow Toe Rail

Practical and safe — the toe rail lets you feel the edge of the bow without looking, and accents the bow for a pleasing look.

Mid-Ship

02 / 04

SportLink® Electronics Integration

Factory-installed integration of Garmin displays, JL Audio sound, digital switching with a custom GUI and a full NMEA 2000 network — every component pre-wired and engineered to work together from the start.

Console Design & Features

A stylish, contemporary console with a single-piece extruded D-tubing hard-top frame, the iconic Sportsman side window glass for natural light, and a tempered glass enclosure with a manually actuated vent.

Console Front Seat

A comfortable console-front seat with backrest for passengers riding mid-ship.

Console Front Cooler

Flip the bottom cushion of the console-front seat to reveal an insulated cooler — and the freshwater fill, if your boat is equipped with the freshwater system.

Tempered Glass Windshield w/ Manual Vent

High-quality tempered glass protects the helm from wind and rain while the top section opens manually to let in cool air — easy to clean and resistant to fade or yellowing.

Enclosed Head

Inside the console, a built-in lockable space works as a changing room or for bulky storage — and can be optionally fitted with a porta potti or a full freshwater porcelain toilet with overboard discharge.

Boat-in-a-Box 2.0 Rigging System

A clean, easy-to-maintain electrical hub with components mounted on removable boards behind the helm — designed to minimize maintenance and simplify repairs.

SeaStar Tilt Helm w/ SS Wheel

Over 40 degrees of tilt with 5 lock positions, paired to a high-quality stainless steel Sportsman-branded steering wheel with knob — comfortable ergonomics standing or seated.

Wireless Phone Chargers

Two flush-mounted 10W fast-charging pads with a non-slip surface and IPX6 waterproof seal — the world’s first waterproof wireless charging system built for marine use.

Fiberglass Hard-Top w/ Built-In Lighting

An oversized hard-top with every amenity you’d want built in, while maintaining an elegant and timeless design — including navigation lights, spreader lights and rocket launchers.

Hard-Top D-tubing Frame Structure

The 4-legged frame swoops seamlessly from console to top for immense structural stability. The class-first D-Tubing is bent and extruded from a single piece — not cut and welded.

Premium Dual Chair LP w/ Flip-Up Bolsters

A deluxe leaning post that seats two adults comfortably, with individually adjustable bolsters for standing or seated operation, plus rod holders and cooler storage.

Under Gunwale Rod Racks

Storage for six full-length rods under the gunwales — also a great place to stow a gaff or net out of the way.

Freshwater Washdown w/ 15-gal Tank

Standard freshwater washdown with a 15-gallon tank — perfect for rinsing the deck, cleaning up after landing a fish or washing off at the sandbar.

Dual Fuel Fills

Fuel fills on both port and starboard let you pull up to the gas dock from either side with ease.

Rear Deck

03 / 04

Rear Seating w/ Sandbar Mode

A deep, edge-to-edge rear bench seats up to four adults, with all cushions fully removable for easy storage and cleaning — great for families and safer seating for kids below the gunwale.

Rear Total Access Hatch

Large, easy-to-access storage for life jackets, extra anchor, safety equipment or scuba gear — and best-in-class access to essential pumps and seacocks when empty.

Aft-Facing Rear Seats & Transom Walk-Through

The outer seats pop out and reinstall facing aft — perfect for sandbar views — or remove entirely for an obstruction-free walk-through on one or both sides.

Transom Aquarium 10-Gallon Livewells

A pair of insulated 10-gallon aquarium livewells tucked under the rear seats — operate together or separately with the internal pressure selector, and double as drink coolers when needed.

Sandbar Cooler

A built-in insulated cooler box accessible from outside the boat — quick, convenient refreshments to keep the family hydrated all day.

Sandbar Stern Anchor

A dedicated stern anchor compartment makes setting the boat at the perfect sandbar angle a breeze — and ships standard with anchor, rope and chain.

Twin Boarding Ladders

Telescoping ladders on both sides of the boat make re-boarding easy at the sandbar, and stow away recessed into the deck.

Telescoping Ski Tow Bar

A built-in ski tow bar stows away when not in use, mounted to a dedicated pod in the stringer system — standard, and ready for skiing, tubing or wakeboarding.
