2001 Aquasport 250 Explorer Tournament Edition – 2020 Suzuki 300 APX (140 Hrs) – Offshore Walkaround / Cuddy Fishing Boat for Sale
If you’re looking for a proven offshore fishing platform with the layout to fish hard and the comfort for overnights, this 2001 Aquasport 250 Explorer Tournament Edition checks the right boxes. Aquasport’s reputation was built on solid construction, a wide, stable ride, and a deep-V hull that runs confidently when conditions turn sporty.
The big story here is the power package: a 2020 Suzuki 300 APX four-stroke with only 140 hours, digital throttle & shift, and a transferable warranty (confirm remaining coverage with Suzuki). Add updated electronics, serious fishing gear, and a refreshed tandem trailer, and you’ve got a turnkey setup ready for canyon runs, tournament days, and weekends at the sandbar.

Engine & Offshore Performance
Powered by a 2020 Suzuki 300 APX four-stroke with digital gauge interface and DTS, this boat offers modern reliability and clean rigging—exactly what offshore buyers want. Supporting gear includes trim tabs with position indicator for dialing in the running angle and dual 1500 GPH bilge pumps for added confidence offshore.
Tournament-Ready Fishing Layout
This is a true fishing-first cockpit with the space and features to fish multiple anglers comfortably:
- Wide open cockpit
- Raw water washdown
- Fish box w/ pump-out
- Dual insulated fish coolers
- Taco telescoping outriggers for spreading baits and running clean trolling patterns
Electronics, Navigation & Helm
A strong electronics suite makes this a legitimate offshore tool:
- Raymarine C120 Wide Multifunction Display
- HD radar
- SiriusXM integration
- Digital sounding module
- Raymarine autopilot
- Dual VHF radios with independent antennas
- Boss VHF/Bluetooth AM/FM for entertainment underway
Comfort, Lighting & Overnight Capability
The hardtop with updated curtains improves protection and usability in sun, spray, or unexpected weather. The LED lighting package (white/blue cockpit lighting plus blue gunnel lighting) gives the boat a clean modern look and real nighttime function. The enclosed cuddy cabin and freshwater system (8 gallons) with sink/shower make overnights and long days on the water much more comfortable.
Trailer – Updated and Ready to Tow
Included is a tandem-axle aluminum Venture trailer with hydraulic brakes, recently refreshed with:
- New springs
- New brakes
- New tires
- Spare tire included
Why This Aquasport Stands Out
This isn’t a stock 250 Explorer—it’s been set up for real offshore use with modern Suzuki power (low hours + warranty), practical fishing upgrades, and a strong electronics package. It’s an ideal fit for the buyer who wants a capable, comfortable offshore boat without stepping into new-boat pricing.
