Pro Sport boats
Pro Sport built runabouts and ski boats with gasoline engines, with most production concentrated between 1997 and 2007. The US fleet includes 122 registered hulls with a median length of 25.4 feet, marketed primarily to families seeking affordable water sports boats. Most used examples are now 20 to 30 years old.
Are Pro Sport boats reliable?
Pro Sport has zero USCG recalls on record across its 122 boat US fleet. The main cost driver is age: most boats date from the late 1990s and early 2000s, meaning stringers, transoms, fuel systems, and soft goods are all due for replacement or heavy maintenance. Expect typical fiberglass runabout wear rather than defects specific to the Pro Sport design.
Common problems to inspect on a used Pro Sport
- Transom wood rot from water intrusion
- Soft spots in stringers and flooring
- Fuel tank corrosion after decades of use
- Worn upholstery and outdated gauges

Frequently asked questions
Are Pro Sport boats good quality?
Pro Sport has zero USCG recalls on 122 registered hulls, indicating no widespread safety defects. Most boats are now 20 to 30 years old, so condition depends heavily on how the previous owner maintained the hull structure and mechanical systems.
What is a Pro Sport boat worth?
Resale values reflect their age and modest market presence, typically in line with other late 1990s to early 2000s runabouts of similar size. Examples in good condition with solid decks and strong engine hours bring higher prices than average boats from that era.
Who makes Pro Sport boats?
Pro Sport produced family runabouts and ski boats primarily from the late 1990s through the 2000s. The brand is no longer in production, so parts come from generic marine suppliers rather than the original manufacturer.
What should I check on a used Pro Sport?
Inspect the transom and floor for soft spots by tapping and walking the deck, verify engine hours and compression, and check the fuel tank for corrosion. Most Pro Sports are 20 to 30 years old, so budget for costs typical of aging boats like wiring, upholstery, and gauge replacements.
