The 281 HB is a perfect combination of pro-level fishability, distinctive contemporary styling, and family-focused comfort. Our hybrid (HB) boats are the ideal blend between a bay boat and an offshore center console. Perfect for the angler that wants to make a long run offshore and fish the shallows on the way back in, the 281 HB provides a versatile platform to target almost any species.
Performance starts with a Michael Peters double Stepped-Vee Ventilated Tunnel hull. This patented hull delivers speed, fuel efficiency, and a precise and dry ride. Featuring the same fishing amenities as the 281 HB (huge nonskid casting deck, massive built-in storage compartments for tackle and gear, 35 gallon livewells, backlit console display), the 281 HB offers the safety and reliability of engines and a standard 120 gallon fuel tank, with an optional 35 gallon auxiliary fuel tank for those long days on the water.
Family and friends who hop aboard for a day of fun will love the 281 HB U-shaped bow seating, center-line flip-up stern seating, 9'-4" beam, high freeboard and deep gunnels for added safety and security, premium stereo system options, and a butter-soft ride. See for yourself how the Caymas 281 HB enjoys the best marine fit and finish utilizing the highest quality marine hardware and craftsmanship.
The Caymas 281 HB can be rigged with Yamaha, Mercury, or Suzuki outboards up to 600 horsepower.
