How much does a used Sportsman Heritage 231 Center Console cost?
On US Marine Connection there are 4 approved, priced Heritage 231 Center Console listings right now, all with photos, and all are 2027 boats rather than used ones. Asking prices run from $129,120 to $134,935, with a median of $131,555. Those are asking prices, not sale prices. Each listing is rigged with a Yamaha F300XSB, 300 HP single outboard, digital electric steering, and three extra years of Y.E.S. warranty for six years total.
What years of the Heritage 231 Center Console are for sale?
Every one of the 4 Heritage 231 Center Console listings currently on US Marine Connection is a 2027 model, so there is no older-year inventory under this exact name at the moment. They are all center consoles with fiberglass hulls, LOA 23 ft 4 in and 8 ft 6 in beam, single Yamaha 300 HP outboards. If you want earlier years, the related Heritage 231 listings span 2018 to 2026.
How many hours is typical on a used Heritage 231 Center Console?
None of the 4 listings states an engine hour figure, so there is no typical number to quote here. That is not surprising given all four are 2027 boats with Yamaha F300XSB outboards and three years of additional Y.E.S. warranty, six years total. If hours matter to you, ask the seller directly for a reading off the gauge or engine diagnostic report before you commit.
What should I check before buying a used Heritage 231 Center Console?
Since these four are 2027 boats, focus on confirming what the descriptions list is actually installed: the slide-out track for a Yeti cooler, trolling motor plug, harness and adapter, under leaning post tackle storage, and on two of them the windlass with anchor and 300 feet of rope. Verify the Y.E.S. warranty paperwork, that the digital electric steering functions through full lock, hardtop and powder coating condition, and whether a trailer is included, since trailers are noted as available rather than standard.
What features come on the Heritage 231 Center Console?
The listings show a Yamaha F300XSB 300 HP single outboard with digital electric steering, fiberglass hull, hardtop with a color-matched underside, powder coating in white or gray, and upholstery in Smoky Gray, Coastal Beige or Icecap White. All four include a slide-out track for a Yeti cooler, trolling motor plug with harness and adapter, and under leaning post tackle storage. Two add a windlass with anchor and 300 feet of rope. Hull colors include Harbor Haze, Deepwater Blue, Explorer Blue and Ice Blue.
Is the Heritage 231 Center Console good for fishing?
The equipment listed points that way. Every one of the four boats has under leaning post tackle storage, a trolling motor plug with harness and adapter, and a slide-out track for a Yeti cooler, which is a practical fishing setup. Two also carry a windlass with anchor and 300 feet of rope for holding over a spot. Beyond those listed items, the descriptions do not detail other fishing gear, so confirm specifics with the seller.
