2026 Sportsman 302 OpenDescription

Get out of the marina faster and run farther across Tampa Bay with a setup that removes the usual tradeoffs between fishing capability and family usability.

Many owners reach a point where their current boat forces choices—range vs. comfort, fishing space vs. seating, or convenience vs. control. The 302 Open replaces that tension with a layout and systems package that keeps everything accessible and ready, so you spend less time managing the boat and more time using it.

The Yamaha autopilot reduces helm workload on longer runs, letting you hold course with confidence whether you’re heading offshore or crossing open water. The Mastervolt charging system keeps onboard power stable and predictable, eliminating guesswork when running multiple systems throughout the day. Gull wings under the hardtop improve access and shade management, so moving around the boat stays simple and controlled even with a full crew onboard.

Finished in Harbor Haze with a matching hull bottom, this configuration carries a clean, consistent look that holds up in real use while staying easy to maintain over time.

Thunder Marine supports this ownership experience with direct service access and a team that understands how this boat is used in St. Pete, Clearwater, and Sarasota waters. That means fewer delays, clearer answers, and more time on the water.
