Overview
The Boston Whaler 320 Outrage is designed as a rugged offshore fishing vessel that also prioritizes comfort. This dual-purpose approach aims to deliver a boat capable of handling challenging sea conditions while providing a pleasant experience for its occupants. The boat measures 32 feet 2 inches in length overall, with a beam of 10 feet 2 inches and a draft of 22 inches. It carries 300 gallons of fuel and 40 gallons of fresh water, making it well-suited for extended trips offshore.
Helm and Control Center
The helm of the 320 Outrage serves as the central command area, thoughtfully designed for functionality and comfort. A compass is mounted atop the rubberized helm dash, with a multifunction Mercury SmartCraft screen positioned centrally below it. The helm offers ample space on either side for additional electronic displays, allowing for customization based on user preference. Lighted rocker switches are grouped by fishing-related functions, and a Fusion stereo remote control is conveniently located beneath them. The dual Mercury digital throttle and shift controls (DTS) are placed on a raised island in the center, allowing for various control modes including single lever operation. Trim tab controls are positioned just forward of the throttles for easy access. The stainless steel steering wheel includes a suicide knob and is adjustable to five different settings. Additional features include a keyless engine start and stop control, operational system rocker switches, waterproof circuit breakers for light and window vent controls, and a lockable, gasketed dry storage compartment with a flush mount cover. Overhead, there is additional soft storage space.
Helm Seating and Safety Features
The helm seating is custom-designed by Boston Whaler, featuring stainless steel internal supports and visible stainless elements such as armrests. The bolsters are substantial, plush, and comfortable, contributing to an overall seating comfort rated highly by the test captain. The captain's seat is adjustable on a stainless steel track with a dual release mechanism. Between the seats, a fully upholstered console provides large dry storage ideal for personal items. A trash receptacle is conveniently located below the seating area. Safety is emphasized throughout the boat, with handholds positioned above, to the sides, behind the helm, and extending forward along both port and starboard sides.
Performance and Handling
Powered by twin 300-horsepower Mercury Verado outboards with 14x5.8x17 Revolution IV props, the 320 Outrage demonstrated strong performance during sea trials. With a test weight of approximately 9,910 pounds, including gear, two people, and a third of a tank of fuel, the boat reached a top speed of 51.5 miles per hour at 6,300 RPM, consuming 59 gallons per hour and providing a range of 236 statute miles with a 10% fuel reserve. The best cruise speed was recorded at 26.7 miles per hour at 4,000 RPM, burning 20.4 gallons per hour for a range of 353 miles. The boat planes in 4.5 seconds and accelerates from 0 to 30 miles per hour in 7.9 seconds, with a bow rise of 9 degrees. The hull design features a hard chine that leads down from the bow and curves downward aft, complemented by full-length strakes. This design delivers a solid ride without feeling heavy, with the bow cutting cleanly through water and spray thrown low and wide. Turning is smooth and controlled, with no pounding or hopping even in heavy chop.
Exterior Features and Cockpit
The 320 Outrage offers a well-appointed exterior with practical features. The glass console enclosure balances protection with visibility, and includes an electric window vent for ventilation on warm days. The cockpit features a large lazarette hatch that opens effortlessly, revealing neatly organized cables and lines, forward and aft fuel control valves, a heavy-duty sump pump, and a transducer. The hatch is supported by heavy-duty gas-assist struts, fully gasketed, and surrounded by a gutter to manage water runoff. Fueling ports are located amidships on the port side. The transom includes a gasketed inward-opening door set in a molded frame, with a grab handle and a three-step reboarding ladder on the aft deck. There is ample space to maneuver safely around the twin outboard engines, with enough clearance to raise the lower units completely out of the water.
Bow and Anchor Locker
The bow area is spacious and thoughtfully equipped. Two recessed 10-inch stainless steel cleats are positioned forward, and the anchor locker is notably well-organized and equipped. The large hatch remains open even in strong winds, providing easy access to the anchor and rode below. The anchor system includes a quick windlass remote controller, a top-tier quick windlass and capstan, stainless steel through-the-bow chafing gear, and a raw water washdown located to starboard.
Conclusion
The Boston Whaler 320 Outrage successfully meets its design goals of combining offshore ruggedness with onboard comfort. Its well-thought-out helm, strong performance, smooth handling, and practical exterior features make it a capable and comfortable offshore fishing boat. The test captain's evaluation highlights the boat's solid ride, ease of handling, and attention to detail in both design and functionality. Further features and details are to be covered in a subsequent review.
