Overview
The Boston Whaler 315 Conquest represents a versatile crossover vessel designed to bridge the gap between fishing and cruising. This model introduces several new features, including updated tan cushions and dashboard colors, enhancing both aesthetics and functionality. Its design flexibility caters to boaters seeking a dual-purpose boat that performs well in both fishing and cruising roles.
Exterior Design and Cockpit Features
The 315 Conquest offers three helm deck configurations: an open layout, fully enclosed side windows, and an aft bulkhead with door, allowing owners to tailor the boat to their preferences. The cockpit, measuring 59.5 square feet in the open configuration, is optimized for fishing with two large insulated in-deck fish boxes equipped with macerators and a 35-gallon insulated live well at the transom. Additional fishing amenities include rod holders under the gunnels, tow rails, optional downrigger weights with electrical connections in the quarters, three flush-mounted rod holders at the transom, four in the cap rails, and four rocket launchers mounted to the hardtop supports. For cruising comfort, the cockpit features a flip-down stern seat, optional port and starboard flip-out seats, and an optional fiberglass table with synthetic teak overlay, creating a comfortable social area. An optional aft cockpit sunshade provides relief from the sun. The 11-inch-wide cap rails are non-skid and padded bolsters line three sides of the cockpit, ranging from 22 to 28 inches in height. Stainless steel hose holes with integrated drink holders are also incorporated into the cap rails. The Summer Kitchen station behind the port side seat includes storage drawers, a pullout cutting surface that reveals a grill, a cockpit refrigerator, and a sink with a pullout sprayer set in a Corian countertop. The standard hardtop accommodates optional electronics, a remote spotlight, outriggers, and LED spreader lights positioned fore and aft. The bow features 25-inch-high rails and an optional cushion that converts the foredeck into a sun lounge.
Interior Living Spaces
Below deck, the 315 Conquest emphasizes cruising comfort with a modest yet well-equipped galley located to port. It includes a single burner stove with pop-up fiddles, refrigerator, sink with pullout sprayer, and microwave oven. Natural light is abundant through an overhead skylight and opening port lights, complemented by LED lighting with individual toggle switches. The mid-cabin, situated beneath the helm deck and accessed via floating stair treads, offers a berth measuring 4 feet 8 inches by 6 feet 3 inches with variable headroom ranging from 2 feet to 2 feet 9 inches near the entryway. Privacy curtains are optional. The test boat featured an entertainment package with a 22-inch flat screen TV, DVD player, and TV cable input. Storage is provided by a cabinet to port and a padded leather-wrapped headboard with additional storage behind it. Forward of the mid-cabin is a U-shaped dinette with overhead collapsible rod holders and fold-away garment hooks to maximize headroom. The dinette table folds down to create a forward berth, with storage beneath the side seats.
Private Accommodations and Head
To starboard of the dinette is a compact wet head that, despite its size, offers sufficient comfort for showering using the sink's pull-out sprayer mounted on the bulkhead. Ventilation is provided by an opening port light, and a large mirror is affixed to the inside of the door. Storage compartments are integrated within the head area. Additionally, a hatch on the aft bulkhead grants access to the back side of the helm console for maintenance and installations.
Performance and Handling
While specific engine specifications and performance data were not detailed, the 315 Conquest demonstrated excellent handling characteristics during testing. Its design successfully balances the demands of both fishing and cruising, providing a smooth and responsive experience on the water.
