Owner's Testimonials
Best riding boat I have ever owned. I have owned over 20+ boats in my life and Sportsman took a lot of time designing this one. The hull rides great and the access to the electronics and bilge is great especially the lighting in the bilge access area makes it nice to do service on it.

Absolutely in love with our new boat. Tested and shopped many different brands. Sportsman by far won in every category and the fit and finish and ride quality of this boat is unbelievable.

I recently purchased the 232 Open and have been extremely happy with it. Living on Lake Erie means that you never know whether you're going out in 1 footers or 4 footers and my passengers are always dry when we get back to the dock. It has all of the amenities of boats priced a lot higher and I feel I couldn't have made a better choice.

Awesome boat! Looks great! Rides great! Trailers great! I couldn't be happier. Plenty on fishing features and family too. What sold me was all the standard features. 9" screen, bow cushions with back rests! Trim tabs, flip up bolsters on the leaning post, rod holders, livewell and hull color??? All standard...WHAT? Amazing! The other brands can't touch that with a 10' pole. Thanks sportsman, I'm a believer.

I have a friend who introduced me to the sportsman boats as he bought one. So far my wife and I love it. Plenty of room for the grandkids and for fishing the gulf. Or just relaxing on the lake or river.

Boat show, Ocean city md. Met Ron and he gave the facts about the boat and the different packages that were available. I explained i was a looky loo and was just researching the different boats. i went all 3 days of the show and kept getting drawn back to the sportsman. Finally Sunday came and i stopped by again...found the 23ft sportsman open. purchased it on the spot

I recently purchased a SPORTSMAN 242 OPEN boat. I have been boating since I was a young man. I'm not so young now. This boat is fantastic. It is perfect for recreation as well as fishing. We love cruising with the family for a gentle evening outing. But I also really enjoy the extra space in the back of the boat that makes fishing easy and comfortable. The electronics on this boat are unlike any I have seen on a boat of this size. The structure of the boat is as solid as you will find.

I can not believe how well this boat handles any conditions i have been in. It eats the 2 and 3 foot chop with a dry soft ride. It is a great all around boat from fishing to family fun. I couldn't ask for anything more

Beautiful boats, great ride, excellent customer service... We highly recommend Sportsman!

Glenn
I saw the Sportsman for the first time at the Ft. Myer's Boat Show. I could not believe the value for such a high quality boat. The fittings and finish ranks up with boats costing twice the price. The extend warranty offered by Yamaha really sold me on the boat. I can highly recommend Sportsman and our lovely salesperson.
