Open 232 Center Console · Features

The bow of this boat is designed with entertainment and versatility in mind. Features wrap around seating with all the cushions, removable backrests, 2 easily accessible large insulated fish boxes, drink holders and speakers to play your favorite tunes.

Stow away your anchor when not in use inside this large compartment. It features a molded catch for the anchor to keep it from falling in and the cut out for your rope on the lid makes it easy to store your extra rope neatly inside the compartment.

The open bow design offers the convenience of a full walk-through to your anchor and bow but sometimes you may need some additional seating, this filler board with cushion latches securely opening up one additional seat.

Two large storage boxes at the bow will give you plenty of places to stow away your items. They are both insulated and can be used as fish boxes or coolers.

Our newly designed paddle-style latch has been designed to allow for easy access to the lid, even when the sunpad is in use.

Located at the center of the bow, you'll find a very spacious in-floor storage box.

There are many reasons and uses for a toe rail. But arguably the most practical is safety. The toe rail allows you to feel where the edge of the bow is without looking. Esthetically speaking, the toe rail accents the bow for a pleasing look.

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.

Comfortable console-front seat with backrest.

Flip the bottom cushion of the console-front seat to reveal an insulated cooler. Conveniently located for those sitting up front. You will also find the freshwater fill hidden under the cushion, if your boat is equipped with the freshwater system.

Made out of high-quality tempered glass, the integrated windshield protects the helm of excessive wind and rain while maintaining excellent air flow. The top section opens up manually to let in cool air. The glass is extremely easy to clean and will never fade, yellow or deteriorate.

Inside the console, there is a built-in lockable storage area. This enclosed space can be used as a changing room or storage of bulky items. On the back wall, there's access to all of the connections to the electronics and fuses, very convenient for quick troubleshooting. This space can also be optionally fitted with a porta potti or a full fresh water porcelain toilet with overboard discharge and pump out system.

We have put the extra space inside of the console to good use by designing-in designated trolling motor battery storage. This allows you to have the 3 trolling motor batteries tucked away from the visible console floor.

When designing this space, it was extremely important to bring in plenty of sunlight. To achieve this, a large horizontal window on the starboard side was designed in. This flush glass design allows for the largest opening.

Accessing the electrical components of the boat is a breeze thanks to the large access panel located behind the helm. Our 'boat-in-a-box 2.0' rigging system is a standout feature of this boat, providing a clean and easy-to-maintain electrical hub. The electronics are mounted on removable boards, making it easy to perform maintenance or make repairs without having to dismantle or remove any major components. This innovative system is designed to minimize maintenance requirements.

The safety and reliability of having 2 batteries on board is integral. This boat is equipped with 2 batteries and a selector switch conveniently located inside the console.

The SeaStar Helm offers over 40 degrees of tilt and locks into 5 different positions and is paired to a high quality stainless steel Sportsman-branded steering wheel with knob. The console layout has comfortable ergonomics for the perfect steering position whether standing up or sitting down.

Over the top of the console, additional padded storage for small items like cell phones and USB ports.

This state of the art wireless charger features a 10W fast charging surface in a low profile flush-mounted pad. The top of the pad has an ultra grippy non-slip surface to keep your phone in place underway and has an IPX6 waterproof sealed unit. This is the world's first waterproof wireless charge system created specifically for the marine environment.

To keep your devices charged and ready, the helm includes two dedicated USB charging ports that operate independently from other systems. A 12V receptacle is also included for any cigarette-lighter style accessories.

A compass is one of the simplest and most trusted tools on the boat. Even with today’s advanced Garmin electronics, it gives you an immediate heading reference at the helm. Paired with your chartplotter and good seamanship, a compass adds confidence when visibility changes or conditions become less predictable.

The console has molded in steps to offer a place to put your feet while the boat is underway. They are topped with custom pads with the Sportsman logo.

A custom helm pad adds comfort where captains spend the most time. The anti-fatigue material helps reduce strain on your feet, knees and back during long runs or full days at the sandbar. It also adds a clean, finished look to the helm while improving traction underfoot.

One of the first things you’ll notice when you look at this model is the over-sized hard-top. This top has all of the amenities you would want built in while still maintaining an elegant and timeless design.

Matching the underside of the hardtop to the hull color gives the boat a more custom, finished appearance. It visually ties the top, hull and upholstery together while adding personality without changing the boat’s layout. This is a popular styling choice for owners who want their Sportsman to feel more uniquely theirs.

The 4-legged frame swoops seamlessly from the console up to the top and the design gives it immense structural stability. The class-first D-Tubing structure is not cut and welded as typically done, but rather it is bent and extruded out of a single piece of D-Tubing.

When the sun goes down, molded in navigation lights can be found at the front corners of the hard-top. This location keeps them out of the way and completely unobstructed.

The spreader lights on the hard-top provide deck work lights for early morning or late-night trips.

To complete the top, we've added rocket launchers across the back, providing ample space for up to five fishing rods.

These hard-top rod holders point straight off of the side of the boat and allows you to extend your spread out further than you could with the gunwale-mounted rod holders. The height also keeps them away from any rods in a deck rod holder.

A premium dual-chair leaning post adds upgraded comfort, supportive seating and flip-up bolsters for flexible cruising or standing at the helm.

The space under the leaning post allows you to fit a large cooler and strap it securely using the included velcro strap. For additional tackle storage, we offer the "Under Leaning Post Tackle Storage" option which adds additional plastic tackle trays and a storage bin.

Storage for 6 rods is possible with the under gunwale rod racks. Each can accommodate a full length rod and doubles as a great place to store a gaff or net.

Comes standard with a freshwater washdown and a 15-gallon tank. Perfect for rinsing off the deck, cleaning up after landing a fish or washing off at the sandbar. It’s a simple comfort that quickly becomes essential.

This boat includes 4 high-quality Gemlux rod holders flush mounted on the gunwale. Outside of the obvious use of holding fishing rods, you may add any number of available 3rd party accessories designed to be mounted in a rod holder.

When it comes time to fuel up, this model also includes fuel fills on both sides. This allows you to pull up to the gas dock or gas station from either side with ease.

For extra added comfort when fishing, the cockpit bolster cushions provide a nice soft surface to push your knees and legs into when reaching into the water or fighting a fish.

Located under the gunwale rod racks, the toe rail is designed as a brace point when heeling over the side of the boat to gaff or bring in a fish. You slide your toes under the bar and in conjunction with the bolster cushion, it provides a sturdy brace for your legs, even if the deck is wet or slippery.

Raw water washdown uses outside water to help rinse the deck, cockpit and fishing areas throughout the day. It is especially useful after handling bait, cleaning up sand or rinsing down gear. Because it draws from the water around you, it pairs well with freshwater washdown and helps save freshwater for final rinses.

When it's time to fish, the rear bench conveniently stows away to open up cockpit space and make it easier to walk around the leaning post. The seat bottom completely removes to reveal best-in-class access to the bilge. It seats 2-3 comfortably and has a deep design for comfort.

A class first on this model is the 25-gallon aquarium livewell. This livewell fills the starboard side of the transom with a beautiful piece of glass that not only is functional for keeping a close eye on your bait but is also aesthetically pleasing and adds a yacht-like feel to this boat. When it’s time to hit the sandbar the livewell and plug can also double as an extra cooler.

The transom door has a latch to secure it and it offers the convenience of not having to step over anything to enter the boat.

Easily board your boat from the port side with the standard 3-step ladder. It stows away recessed into the deck when not in use for a clean obstruction-free rear deck.

Every avid weekend sandbar goer knows that setting the boat at the perfect angle is key to a successful outing. We've included a stern anchor compartment to make that task a breeze. The boat even comes standard with the proper anchor, rope and chain to get the job done from day 1. This is a must-have feature for any sandbar outing.

The rear Total Access Hatch gives you the ability to have large storage that's still incredibly easy to access. it's the perfect place for your life jackets, extra anchor, safety equipment, scuba gear and anything else you may need. When empty, it offers best-in-class access to your essential pumps and seacocks.

All Sportsman Boats feature Sileather® Marine silicone-coated fabrics. These high-performance fabrics are designed to be tough and durable and able to withstand even the harshest of conditions.

Offered in Coastal Beige, Smoky Gray and Icecap White.

Powder coating adds a durable, protective finish to the boat’s metalwork while giving the overall design a cleaner custom look. Available in select colors, it helps match the hardtop frame, leaning post and other metal components to the boat’s style. It is both a visual upgrade and a practical layer of protection.

We have two groups of colors, light and dark. A light color is included standard on this boat. You have the choice of one solid full hull color or a side and bottom color. View All Color Options
