Southport
272 FE
2021–Current
“The Southport 272 offers the ideal combination of options to be perfect at ease as a serious offshore fishing machine or as a family day-cruiser and beach boat. Designed to be a perfect hybrid between family entertainer and fishing platform, the 272 FE can do it all. The ability to add fish-friendly features like additional rod holders, outriggers, and storage make the boat perfectly suited to your ideal day on the water, and not take away from the family-focused functionality.” (Manufacturer Provided Description)
“A graceful Carolina bow with generous flare, aggressive forward rake and subtle tumblehome at the transom combine to make the Southport 272 an iconically beaujpgul boat.”
