Console Design & Features
The boat's console stands out as a unique aspect of its design, showcasing a stylish and contemporary appearance that perfectly complements the Sportsman design language. The console incorporates numerous ingenious components that enhance its aesthetic appeal and functionality. The console is designed with a d-tubing hard-top frame that's extruded from a single piece of aluminum. This unique design removes the frame legs from the deck, resulting in more space around the console and a sturdy frame structure. In addition, this design provides more interior space within the console. The starboard side of the console features the iconic Sportsman side window glass, which floods the interior space with light. The console is wrapped with a tempered glass enclosure that includes a manually actuated vent.
