The Sportsman 106 Powered by Minn Kota sets a 12V saltwater-ready motor in a mid-hull console with a powerboat-style throttle and built-in battery meter. Foot-brace steering and an extra-large rudder leave your hands free. The 37 in wide hull has a dual-layer Textilene seat, four 18 in tracks, shallow water anchor inserts and flush rod holders.

Good to know
- A battery is not part of the boat, so budget for a 12V lead-acid or lithium battery sized to how far you plan to run.
- The kill switch key holds a spare prop pin and works as a prop wrench, so keep it on a lanyard.
