NEW Sportsman Masters 267OE Bay Boat Just Listed

The 267OE is the same 8.1-metre hull as the standard 267, with the same beam, the same 0.38-metre draft, the same 16 degrees of deadrise and the same 450-horsepower rating, rearranged forward around comfort. OE stands for Open Edition, and what it buys is an extended console carrying a two-person chaise lounge with a 394-litre insulated coffin box on gas struts underneath it, finished on both sides.

That box is the headline. Nearly 400 litres of insulated, gas-strutted storage in the middle of a bay boat is genuinely useful whether it is holding a day's catch, a week's ice or the family's gear, and it is not something the standard 267 can offer. Alongside it sit a 136-litre bow fish box and a 30-litre bow livewell, with twin 79-litre insulated aquarium livewells at the transom that run together or independently, and a 121-litre macerated in-deck fish box aft that the standard boat does not have.

Sportsman's own framing is that this hybrid is as comfortable offshore as it is inshore, and the layout supports that: a rear fold-up bench seats two adults, the chaise seats two more, and both bow and rear casting decks remain in place with recessed hardware. What you give up against the standard 267 is some open bow deck. The extended console takes a bite out of the forward casting platform, and the boat carries about 136 kilograms more.

Standard equipment carries across: premium captain's chairs with flip-up bolsters, an enclosed head with storage and changing space, a tackle centre with organised drawers, dedicated trolling motor battery storage, a fibreglass hardtop with an integrated tempered glass windscreen and moulded navigation lights, and SportLink with factory-installed Garmin.
