This top-quality windlass system is installed thru-hull giving it a great clean look and comes standard with a high-grade stainless steel anchor. BOW CONTROLS FOR ANCHOR For ease of use and safety, we include foot controls at the bow for launching and retrieving your anchor, making the operation a one-man job. It also makes it very easy to see your anchor, rope and chain as it is getting reeled in. The controls have a plastic cover to prevent any unintentional button presses. ANCHOR LOCKER FRESHWATER WASHDOWN A conveniently located freshwater washdown in the anchor hatch allows you to rinse off your anchor as it is coming in and allows those seating up front to use the washdown. BOW LAYOUT The bow of this boat is designed with entertainment and versatility in mind. Features wrap around seating with adjustable bow backrests, 2 easily accessible large insulated fish boxes, drink holders and speakers to play your favorite tunes. ACTUATED BOW SUN DECK / TABLE A large electronically actuated table is the center piece. There are 3 main functions for this table. At the top position, it serves as a table. Lower it to the middle position and snap-in the additional cushion for the sun deck function. When not in use, lower it flush to the floor for an obstruction-free deck. BOW STORAGE 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. BOW BOLSTERS The included bow bolsters on this boat serve double duty.

Mid-Ship

FIBERGLASS HARD-TOP W/ BUILT-IN LIGHTING 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. HARD-TOP D-TUBING FRAME STRUCTURE The 6-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. INTEGRATED TEMPERED GLASS WINDSHIELD W/ ACTUATED VENT 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 at the push of a button to let in cool air. The glass is extremely easy to clean and will never fade, yellow or deteriorate. HARD-TOP MOLDED-IN NAVIGATION LIGHTS 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. Additionally, these Lumitec lights can dual purpose as docking lights with built in 1000 lumen white dock lights. MATCHING HARD-TOP UNDERSIDE COLOR A popular trend is to have the underside of the hard-top matched to the hull color, this adds additional appeal and ties in the color theme of the boat sides by bringing additional color to the cockpit area. ANTI-FATIGUE HELM PAD Feel all-day comfort with our custom anti-fatigue helm pads. You will notice a difference at the end of the day, your feet will thank you for it. Custom engraved with the Sportsman logo for that extra touch. HELM POD STORAGE COMPARTMENT Under the helm pod, you will find additional storage built into the step providing you ample storage at the helm. ENCLOSED HEAD Inside the console, there is a built-in storage area. This enclosed space can be used as a changing room or storage of bulky items. ELECTRIC PORCELAIN TOILET W/ DISCHARGE Standard feature on this boat is a freshwater electric porcelain toilet with overboard discharge along with an on-board holding tank. Once the toilet flushes, it gets piped into the holding tank. From there, where legally allowed, a push of a button discharges the tank. Making this a very easy and convenient way of having a fully functional toilet on your boat. LARGE HORIZONTAL WINDOW 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. DEDICATED TROLLING MOTOR BATTERY STORAGE 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. USB PLUG IN-DASH & 12V RECEPTACLE With the ever-growing demand to keep your devices charged, we include two USB plugs at the helm.

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. COMPASS Considered one of the Four Great Inventions, the compass remains the cornerstone of any navigation system despite our advanced digital displays. Regardless of condition, your compass provides real-time heading and when used in combination with your GPS data, it allows you to optimize fuel efficiency & improve safety. When it gets dark, there's a built-in light inside the compass for night use. CONSOLE FOOTREST W/ PADS The console has molded in steps to offer a place to put your feet while the boat is underway.

Removing the cutting board reveals a small cooler. LEANING POST TACKLE CENTER Under the captain's chairs, you will find your batteries, storage bin and a large tackle center with drawers. For your convenience, the drawers have dividers inside to keep your items organized. BATTERY SWITCHES Access to the battery switches has never been easier. There is a switch for each engine and one for the house. The house isolates all of your electronics, lights, amps and pumps from your engine batteries. All batteries charge simultaneously when the motors are running. DEDICATED BATTERY COMPARTMENT Inside of the leaning post you'll find a designated battery storage compartment. This sets the batteries center line for even weight distribution keeping them dry and out of the elements. The door is easily removable for routine maintenance.  Rear Deck  REAR SEATING 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. SIDE ENTRY DOORS Two are certainly better than one, at least when it comes to side doors. The side entry doors are a versatile feature that will quickly become one of your favorites and you'll love the ability to board from either side. Our side entry doors are part of the hull and deck mold. We designed them in this way to guarantee that they have the necessary structural reinforcements needed. Our stringer system supports the door and a large heavy duty hinge hangs the door. DUAL FUEL FILLS 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. IN-DECK MACERATED FISH BOXES On either side of the leaning post, there are insulated and macerated in-deck fish boxes. UNDER GUNWALE ROD RACKS 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. FLUSH MOUNT GUNWALE ROD HOLDERS 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. PORT & STARBOARD TOE RAIL 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. COCKPIT BOLSTERS 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. TOTAL ACCESS COMPARTMENT Opening the large center in-floor lid, reveals the total access compartment. This best-in-class bilge access is one of our signature features and we’ve taken it to the next level with this designed-in larger opening. Seakeeper is not standard.  TWIN PRESSURIZED 30-GALLON AQUARIUM LIVEWELLS Deep twin aquarium 30-gallon insulated pressurized livewells with glass that allows you to keep an eye on your bait.

It stows away recessed into the deck. FRESHWATER WASHDOWN W/ TANK Standard with a freshwater washdown with a 20-gallon tank. Common uses include hosing down the deck, cleaning up the floor after you reel in a big fish or rinsing off yourself after a day at the sandbar. It's a great creature comfort you will quickly get accustomed to. RAW WATER WASHDOWN With its unlimited supply, it is the perfect companion for the freshwater washdown. This system pumps outside water to a water outlet where you can screw in a regular hose. UNDERWATER LIGHTS Built out of an anodized aluminum housing, these high quality LED underwater lights are a great feature for this model.
