Pursuit S 248

The entry to the Pursuit standard.

The S 248 is the most attainable way into a Pursuit, and it gives up nothing of what makes the brand: the joinery, the hardware, the glasswork all sit a level above anything else its size. A single Yamaha pushes it economically, and the layout covers fishing, cruising and the sandbar with equal polish.

RT 113 is a Pursuit Flagship Dealer — 2025 and 2026 — an award for how customers are treated across sales, service and everything after. We were Pursuit's Rookie Dealer of the Year in 2023, and our own Yamaha Pro Elite shop services every Pursuit we sell.

Common questions

How big is the Pursuit S 248?

25 ft 8 in overall with a 8 ft 6 in beam.

What is the deadrise on the Pursuit S 248?

21 deg at the transom. A sharper V softens a chop; a flatter one adds stability at rest and shallower draft — where this one sits is part of what a sea trial is for.

How much fuel does the Pursuit S 248 carry?

120 gal.

Is the Pursuit S 248 in stock at RT 113?

Not on the lot today — it is built to order, and Joe quotes builds the same day. Inventory turns over weekly, so it is worth asking.

Can I sea trial the Pursuit S 248 before buying?

Yes. RT 113 runs sea trials out of Selbyville, Delaware — on the water, not just around the lot. Book one through the sales desk at (302) 436-1737 or from any listing on this site.
