2016 Southport 272 TE
May 25, 2026
The 2016 Southport 272 TE is a premium 29-foot center console built for serious offshore anglers who also want comfort, efficiency, and a remarkably stable ride. Designed on a vacuum‑infused composite hull with a 22° deadrise and a wide 9'6" beam, this model delivers the dry, confident handling Southport is known for, even when seas get sporty. The variable deep‑V design adds both comfort and control, making it equally capable for long runs offshore or relaxed coastal cruising.
Powered by twin Suzuki DF200AP outboards (400 total horsepower), the 272 TE offers an impressive blend of speed and efficiency. At wide‑open throttle, it reaches 48.6 mph (42.2 knots), while a comfortable cruise of 34.4 mph (29.9 knots) at 4000 RPM returns excellent fuel economy at roughly 1.65 mpg. With a 204‑gallon fuel tank, the boat offers an estimated 336‑nautical‑mile cruising range with a 10% reserve—ideal for offshore trips, tournament days, or extended exploring.
With seating that includes a fold‑down transom bench and forward console seat, the 272 TE transitions easily between hardcore fishing and family cruising. Certified for up to 12 passengers, it’s a capable, comfortable platform for any on‑water lifestyle.
