Manufacturer provided description

This 23‑footer delivers an impressively smooth, dry ride with the kind of fishability seasoned anglers demand. A gunwale‑height 25‑gallon livewell keeps bait at arm’s reach, while a walk‑through transom with a proper door and a collapsible rear bench makes moving aboard effortless and converts the cockpit from family mode to fishing mission in moments. The open center bow design invites you to work the foredeck with confidence, yet still preserves the large insulated bow storage boxes for gear and the day’s catch. Standard bow cushions and bolsters elevate comfort without compromising purpose, completing a versatile package that is equally at home chasing a bite or cruising the coastline.

Electronics, console and helm

Every command falls naturally to hand thanks to the SportLink Electronics Integration System tying the helm together with a Garmin Fusion Apollo RA670 marine stereo and a Garmin GPSMAP 943xsv MFD with a 9‑inch display. Sound is rich and precise through four JL Audio M3‑650X speakers with gloss white sport grilles, while an Airmar B60 thru‑hull transducer feeds clean sonar data to your screen. Daily operation is effortless with a console grab rail, a protective console windscreen, and a fitted dash panel cover. Power management is assured by a dual battery configuration with dedicated switch and trays, and comfort adds up with a fiberglass console footrest with integrated storage. Practical touches include a horn, hydraulic tilt steering for fingertip control, and an interior LED lighting package for after‑dark elegance. Gear stays secure in lockable console storage, navigation is clear with rub rail navigation lights, and reliability is built in with stainless steel switches. Fine‑tuning attitude and efficiency is simple using trim tabs with LED indicator, while in‑dash USB and 12V charging plugs plus a USB audio plug in the footrest keep devices powered and connected.

Livewells, pumps and storage

Purpose‑built fishing capability starts with a 25‑gallon livewell that keeps bait lively, backed by a high‑speed livewell pick up to maintain flow underway. Tackle and provisions find their place in insulated bow storage that doubles as cold space for the catch, while dedicated anchor storage keeps the foredeck orderly. Cleanup after the action is a breeze with a raw water washdown ready to rinse the cockpit and decks.

Seating, upholstery and pads

Relax into a bow cushion set with supportive bolsters, complemented by cockpit bolsters that protect and brace where it counts. At the helm, a deluxe leaning post with flip‑up bolsters adapts from stand‑up command to seated comfort in an instant, all upholstered in premium Sileather marine silicone fabrics that shrug off sun and spray. A rear fold‑down seat with convenient access preserves serviceability without sacrificing seating, and a removable bow backrest adds ergonomic support only when you want it.

Hull and deck

Engineered with the SportTech Advanced Fabrication Process, this hull carries a 10‑year hull warranty and the confidence of an NMMA Certified build. Fuel your adventures with a 103‑gallon fuel tank with a fuel level sensor, and keep rods ready in four flush‑mount gunwale rod holders plus under‑gunwale rod racks. The advanced fiberglass stringer system uses no wood for long‑term integrity, and the all‑white hull (sides and bottom) looks timeless. A built‑in swim platform with a three‑step ladder invites effortless reboarding, while Grip Tex yacht‑style non‑skid keeps every step secure. Details abound: port and starboard toe rail for bracing, pull‑up cleats to keep decks snag‑free, recessed bow hand rails for a clean silhouette, and a self‑bailing cockpit for peace of mind. Thoughtful stainless steel touches include eight stainless steel cup holders, stainless steel drain covers, a stainless steel propeller, a stainless steel rub rail, and a stainless steel steering wheel with a knob. Underlid gaskets seal compartments tight, keeping contents dry and quiet underway.
