The Boston Whaler 280 Outrage offers loads of features for serious anglers who demand big things from an offshore fishing boat: a deluxe leaning post with bait-prep area, a 40-gallon livewell, three massive fishboxes and more. At the same time, it's packed with comfort-minded amenities and an ergonomic, state-of-the-art center console. An enclosed head makes long days a breeze, and the boat's wide beam and soft seating enhance group pleasure cruises. Enjoy cutting-edge Mercury SmartCraft instrumentation and optional Raymarine navigation technology to keep your finger on the future. A tempered-glass windshield and optional heavy-duty integrated hard-top system with floodlights and life jacket storage all enhance the 280 Outrage's smooth blend of rugged luxury, comfort and capability. And if it's a luxury yacht tender you're after, the 280 Outrage trumps any RIB. This offshore fishing machine is also a perfect choice for family cruises and lasting memories.
