Versatility. That’s the word that comes to mind when describing our 23’Open. Because whether you’re fishing a wreck, diving for lobster or giving a sailfish all it can handle, this boat can take you there and then some. Rigged with single or twin Evinrude ETEC outboards, this boat can suit just about any lifestyle you and your family live for.

The cockpit is open and uncluttered, giving you plenty of fish fighting room. A 113ltr live-well and built-in 567ltr fuel tank are standard. Its console provides plenty of room for electronics and a walk-through transom door allows access to the integral swim platform.

Using Contender’s 24.5° offshore hull design, she cuts through the chop with a soft dry ride, yet remains stable at rest. Amenities include recessed bow rail, forward recessed gunwale rod racks, live well and walk-through transom door to name a few. Easily trailered, the 23’Open is the perfect family fishing machine.
