Boston Whaler boats are legendary American vessels, renowned for their "Unsinkable Legend" reputation, utilizing a unique foam-core Unibond construction that makes them exceptionally safe and durable. Founded in 1958 and manufactured in Edgewater, Florida, these versatile, high-quality, and low-maintenance boats range from 13 to 42 feet, catering to fishing, watersports, and cruising. Widely know as one of the best names in boating, their lineup consists of the versatile Montauk center consoles, the family-friendly Dauntless bay boats, and the rugged Outrage offshore boats.
Boston Whaler Outrage models are premium, center-console offshore fishing boats ranging from 23 to 42 feet, recognized for their deep-V hulls, and their heavy-duty offshore capability. They are designed for serious fishing - featuring large livewells and fishboxes - while offering luxury amenities for family cruising. The Outrage offers high-speed, stable, and dry rides in rough seas, making it the ideal option for many bodies of water, and the spacious deck layouts allow for comfortable socializing, blending fishability with comfort!
This Boston Whaler 280 Outrage not only is the perfect blend of fishing prowess and family cruising style, but she is unbelievable well maintained, very nicely equipped, and upgraded with many new features and improvements! Fully equipped with the factory premium package, she has all the comforts of deluxe helm seating with adjustable captain's chair and companion seat, hardtop with rod holders, speakers and storage, aft bench foldaway seating, and a large open bow with loungers and social-forward seating. For the avid fisherman, she has a deluxe leaning post with bait-prep area, 30-gallon livewell, 3 large fishboxes and more. Find your way around the waterways safely and easily with the two Garmin 7612 chart plotters with GPS, color fish finder and radar. The cutting-edge Mercury instrumentation and available Raymarine navigation packages empower you even more for ultimate offshore success. Improvements and upgrades completed in 2024 include Minn Kota MK 330D digital on-board marine battery charger, (3) Interstate 31 AGM batteries, MMSI & Automatic Identification System (AIS), Garmin US charts, and new upholstery covers. Also completed in 2024 was a full marine survey to show condition and working order of all systems. In 2025, she received a new Fusion Apollo MS-RA670 stereo, a Fusion MS-EX400 wired remote control, new vacuum pump and macerator pump, and brand new Pettit ECO HRT bottom paint, which hasn't even seen water yet. This vessel comes with a brand new, never used full boat cover, a 2020 Aluminum Magic Tilt Trailer, and an MPP Platinum warranty that runs until 6/30/26 to further protect your investment! She is ready for the water, to either catch some serious fish or just catch some sun and waves...the choice is yours!

Overview
The all-new 280 Outrage from Boston Whaler has been completely redesigned with a focus on three key areas: comfort, simplicity, and versatility. This model incorporates customer feedback to enhance both its fishing capabilities and family-friendly features, making it a highly adaptable vessel.
Exterior Design and Deck Features
The 280 Outrage features a redesigned exterior with updated tan cushions and a matching tan dashboard, replacing the previous gray color scheme. The boat includes a standard T-top, while a premium upgrade offers a hardtop with tempered glass on three sides, a powered vent, bow and cockpit floodlights, rod holders, and outrigger readiness. The self-draining cockpit is equipped with dual 2-inch deck drains and gas-assist struts on all back-jelled, gasketed hatches, facilitating easy maintenance and operation. A mechanical room centrally located on the aft deck provides convenient access to batteries, pumps, and filters. Additional exterior features include a concealed reboarding ladder on the starboard swim platform with an adjacent grab handle, a freshwater washdown station before entering the cockpit, and underwater and courtesy lights for nighttime use.
Comfort and Versatility
The bow area has been completely reimagined to enhance comfort and versatility. It now offers a luxurious two-across lounge with flip-up armrests and aft-facing seating arranged around a removable table. Removing the table and adding a cushion converts this space into a sun pad. Storage is available beneath a back-jelled hatch with a support strut. The boat’s design allows for quick conversion from family leisure to fishing mode by simply removing cushions. Padded bolsters ranging from 22 to 29 inches add comfort during fishing activities. Side trolling seats provide additional seating for line handling while underway.
Fishing Features
The 280 Outrage is well-equipped for serious anglers, featuring 20 rod holders distributed throughout the boat to support a wide fishing spread. A 20-gallon livewell is located in the port quarter, complemented by a deluxe leaning post that includes rod holders, a sink with a pull-out sprayer, a livewell, and a 35-quart carry-on cooler. Under-gunnel rod storage and a tow rail enhance safety and convenience during fishing. The boat also offers two 54-gallon in-deck fish boxes on the port and starboard sides. Forward storage is highly functional, with a compartment accessible via a simple release lever that can accommodate two 5-gallon buckets, four dive tanks, and dedicated fishing rod storage. Rubberized non-skid steps lead into this compartment for safe access.
Private Accommodations and Amenities
A substantial head compartment is located on the starboard side, featuring a standard vacuum flush head and a sprayer that allows the space to double as a shower. The headroom measures 5 feet 5 inches, providing comfortable standing space. The compartment includes a waterproof electrical panel on the aft bulkhead, dedicated storage for the bow table, and an opening port light on the port side, enhancing ventilation and natural light.
Power and Operation
The 280 Outrage incorporates modern technology to simplify operation. Joystick docking enables precise maneuvering, allowing the captain to approach docks with surgical accuracy. A 4-inch SmartCraft display provides instant readouts of all mechanical functions, enhancing situational awareness and control.
Conclusion
The Boston Whaler 280 Outrage successfully balances its fishing heritage with enhanced comfort, simplicity, and versatility. Its thoughtful redesign addresses the needs of both anglers and families, making it a highly adaptable and user-friendly vessel. With advanced features such as joystick docking, ample storage, and convertible seating arrangements, the 280 Outrage stands out as a well-rounded boat designed for a variety of boating activities.
