I haven't had a single Issue with the boat. I have put It through the ringer In 4-5 foot waves, and It has performed In extreme conditions. I've also had days out on the sandbar with family and friends, and It performs equally well In those situations.
We enjoy our Sportsman 232 Open to Its fullest. The ability to convert boat with ease from a family fun cruising boat to a full Open fisherman makes It the best dual purpose boat. We would recommend Sportsman boats to anyone. We constantly get compliments about the boat. Thanks Sportsman.
My wife and I did a lot of searching for the brand and type of boat we wanted. After months of research and visiting boat shows we determined Sportsman was for us. The Open 232 fits our needs perfect from fishing off shore to hanging out with friends for a relaxing day on the lake.
We are very pleased with our new Open 232. It Is the perfect choice for our canal lifestyle In FL. It has the speed and stability for enjoyable cruising on the bay and seasonal use In the Gulf. I plan to go fishing with friends and I know this boat has the features for this sport while being a perfect runabout for my wife and I to tie up at local restaurants and our yacht club In style. Ticks all the boxes.
Bought our Open 232 a little over a year ago and couldn't be more pleased with It. We have almost 200 hours on the boat and have enjoyed using It to explore the Charleston Lowcountry and the barrier Islands we have here. Great balance between a family boat and a fishing boat with a few offshore fishing trips mixed In. Perfect size for cruising up to Georgetown or down to Hilton Head. Highly recommend Sportsman products.
My Sportsman 23 ft center console has exceeded expectations. Whether cruising on the river or out on Long Island sound the ride Is fantastic, passengers are very comfortable, and the electronics package Is very user friendly. The storage space Is more than ample.
I bought this specific boat because of Its balance between fishing and taking out the family for a day on the water. It's been really great for that. We have taken many family trips with everyone quite satisfied with the accommodations. I've also taken It on some hardcore fishing trips (25+ mi offshore In Gulf of Mexico) and the boat proved to be laid out well for It and was also able to easily handle the conditions we found ourselves In a couple of times (storms!). I definitely recommend!
So far It has been great. We put almost 30 hours on It In about 3 weeks with no Issues arising. Seems to be a well built boat with all the amenities we were looking for.
