Overview
The Boston Whaler 230 Outrage is a newly introduced model designed to blend offshore capability with manageable size and ease of operation. Powered by a single 350 horsepower Mercury Verado engine, this 23-foot boat features a beam of 8 feet 6 inches and a draft of 18.5 inches. Its dry weight is approximately 3,800 pounds, with a test displacement of 5,381 pounds including fuel, two passengers, and test equipment. The 230 Outrage aims to deliver solid performance, handling, and versatility in a trailerable package.
Exterior Design and Operational Features
The boat's exterior is thoughtfully equipped with operational conveniences and durable fittings. Eight-inch cleats are accessed through stainless steel hose holes, and the bow features a recessed anchor roller with a windlass controlled both remotely and from the helm. A beefy tow point at the bow indicates the boat's suitability as a yacht tender. The deck layout includes rod holders and a turn-and-lock latch for secure access to the anchor rode. The main breaker panel and battery switch are located on the aft bulkhead of the head compartment, with batteries positioned all the way forward. The design incorporates practical elements such as a recessed cubby for a fire extinguisher and a footrest with a recessed toe area at the helm for both seated and standing operation.
Helm and Bridge Features
The helm station has received significant upgrades for the current model year. It features a soft-touch brow with a darker color to reduce glare, enhancing visibility. The stainless steel steering wheel is mounted on a tilt base on the port side, accompanied by a steering knob for improved control. The compass is aligned directly in front of the wheel, and there is ample space for mounting electronics. The digital throttle and shift controls are ergonomically positioned, and Remco trim tabs with LED indicators flank the helm for precise trim adjustments. These thoughtful design elements contribute to a comfortable and efficient driving experience.
Performance and Handling
Powered by a single Mercury 350 Verado engine turning a 14.2 by 18 Reliance propeller, the 230 Outrage achieved a top speed of 52.7 miles per hour at 6,278 RPM during testing. At this speed, fuel consumption was 31.9 gallons per hour, yielding a range of approximately 164 miles. The most economical cruise speed was identified at 4,000 RPM, where the boat ran at 27.3 miles per hour with a fuel burn of 10.6 gallons per hour, extending the range to 255 miles while maintaining a 10% fuel reserve from its 110-gallon capacity. The boat planes quickly, reaching planing speed in 4.2 seconds, 20 miles per hour in 7.9 seconds, and 30 miles per hour in 12 seconds. Handling characteristics are exemplary, with no chine walk during hard turns and a solid, responsive feel. The hull parts waves cleanly, directing spray wide and low, reinforcing the boat’s reputation for rugged construction.
Offshore Capability
The 230 Outrage demonstrates impressive offshore performance uncommon in its size class. During testing in 4 to 6-foot seas with close wave frequency, the boat handled head seas with some pounding but surprisingly mild re-entry impacts. Running slightly off the waves improved comfort and allowed for higher speeds. Beam seas were managed effortlessly, with the boat riding over swells on an even keel. Following seas provided the smoothest and most enjoyable ride, with no tendency to bury the bow even under aggressive throttle. These results confirm the 230 Outrage’s ability to handle challenging offshore conditions while maintaining control and comfort.
Conclusion
The Boston Whaler 230 Outrage successfully combines excellent handling, robust offshore capability, and user-friendly features into a compact, trailerable boat. Its upgraded helm, thoughtful deck layout, and powerful Mercury Verado engine deliver a confident driving experience both inshore and offshore. The boat’s solid construction and responsive performance make it a versatile choice for those seeking a capable 23-foot center console that is easy to operate and comfortable in a variety of conditions.
