2023 War Eagle 860LDSV Sportsman

What stands out on this 860LDSV Sportsman is how purpose-built the layout feels once you step aboard. The open, unobstructed front deck gives you room to work a cast net, lay out decoys, or set up multiple rods without feeling crowded. Raised, lockable storage keeps your gear dry and organized, and the wide beam adds a reassuring stability when everyone moves to one side for a photo or to net a fish. The rugged, no-nonsense interior finish shrugs off muddy boots and dog claws, then rinses clean at the end of the day. It’s a rig you won’t be afraid to actually use hard.

This hull really shines in the mix of skinny backwaters and choppier open stretches common in this region. The modified-V entry helps soften the ride across wind-blown bays, while the shallow draft lets you slide into tucked-away creeks, marsh drains, and stump-filled rivers where bigger glass boats hesitate. Its tough aluminum construction is a natural match for oyster bars, sandbars, and submerged timber. Paired with the efficient outboard, it’s a practical platform for anglers and hunters who want to cover distance at first light, then idle quietly into the places few boats can reach.
