Eight questions buyers ask about the Sportsman Open 262, answered from the boats listed on US Marine Connection right now.
How much does a used Sportsman Open 262 cost?
Right now US Marine Connection shows three approved, priced Open 262 listings, all asking between $202,600 and $220,715, with a median asking price of $214,940. Keep in mind those are asking prices, not what anyone paid. All three are new-model-year boats rather than older used examples, so the range is fairly tight. Each listing includes photos, so you can see hull color and layout before you call.
What years of the Open 262 are for sale?
The Open 262 inventory on US Marine Connection currently spans 2026 and 2027 model years. There are three priced listings in total, described as new center console boats, so you will not find older used hulls of this model on the site at the moment. If you want something with a few seasons on it, the closest options are the sibling Sportsman models, several of which list back to 2018 or 2019.
How many hours is typical on a used Open 262?
None of the three Open 262 listings states an engine hour figure, so there is no typical number to quote here. All three are presented as new 2026 and 2027 center consoles, which generally means little to no running time beyond rigging and sea trial. If hours matter to you, ask the seller directly for the engine readout and the in-service date before you commit.
What should I check before buying a used Open 262?
Since these listings are 2026 and 2027 boats, focus on delivery condition rather than wear. Confirm the engine hour readout and warranty start date, because no listing publishes hours. One description mentions twin engines, so verify both are matched and properly rigged. Check gelcoat on the colored hulls, such as the Ice Blue one, for transport scuffs. Then run the normal checks: electronics power-up, pumps, steering, hatch and latch fit, and trailer or slip arrangements.
What features come on the Open 262?
Going only by what the descriptions actually say, the Open 262 is a center console built around performance, comfort and versatility, with what the sellers call premium features and luxurious amenities. One 2027 listing highlights an Ice Blue hull, and one 2026 listing notes powerful twin engines. Beyond that, the descriptions stay general, so ask the seller for the full build sheet covering electronics, seating, fishing packages and canvas on the specific hull you want.
Is the Open 262 good for family days on the water?
The descriptions support it. One listing specifically mentions a family seeking weekend fun, and another talks about elevating your weekends on the water, with comfort and relaxation named alongside performance. It is a center console, so expect open deck space and a layout that works for a day out. For exact seating, shade and storage details, check the build sheet on the individual boat, since the listings do not spell those out.
Where can I find a Open 262 for sale near me?
All three Open 262 listings on US Marine Connection are in Miami, Florida, and each one has photos. That means if you are shopping outside South Florida, you would be looking at a trip or arranging your own transport. Prices on those three range from $202,600 to $220,715 asking. Nearby buyers can line up all three in one visit, which makes comparing hull colors and layouts straightforward.
How does the Open 262 compare to the Open 232 or the 232 Open?
Mostly it is a price and year gap. The Open 262 shows three listings at $202,600 to $220,715 asking, median $214,940, in 2026 and 2027. The Open 232 has ten listings from $64,977 to $118,945, median $99,995, spanning 2019 to 2026, so it is the budget-friendly route with real used examples. The 232 Open shows nine listings, $112,900 to $133,390, median $125,110, in 2025 to 2027. Beyond listing data, the descriptions do not compare the models.
