2003 Boston Whaler Dauntless 180Sold

The only reliable way to acquire a classic Dauntless is to buy one new and keep it - for life.

The 180 is a remake of one of their first craft made 50 years ago. The look is distinctively the same and dramatically modern, thanks to the way designers pulled the chines up toward the stem beginning just forward of the centerline. The effect keeps the wide, dry bow area for which Whalers are known, but softens the ride with a sharper entry.

The Dauntless crushes three-foot boat wakes as sport-fishers and long-range cruisers plie the channel, riding high over them and shipping no water or spray. Nice.

Part of the Dauntless? rugged appeal also comes from the minimalist interior style. A fold-down aft bench seat opens the cockpit for angling or seats four when cruising. Forward, a casting platform can be equipped with optional bow cushions.

The 180 Dauntless is a classic.
