Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Sportsman Boats Masters 247 2013 vs Sportsman Masters 247 Bay Boat 2022 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Sportsman Boats Masters 247 2013 vs Sportsman Masters 247 Bay Boat 2022 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
The Sportsman Masters 247 Bay Boat 2022 tops out at 300 hp. Engine specs for the Sportsman Boats Masters 247 2013 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Sportsman Boats Masters 247 2013 carries 72 gallons versus 13 gallons in the Sportsman Masters 247 Bay Boat 2022. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
Both boats are rated for 7 passengers — a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.
Bottom line: The Sportsman Boats Masters 247 2013 and Sportsman Masters 247 Bay Boat 2022 are closely matched on the specs that matter most. Test-ride both on the water you actually use, check current dealer pricing, and factor in long-term service access before you sign.
