Soundings Magazine walkthrough article

The 282 Sailfish is a versatile fishing platform with enough comforts to spend a night or two aboard. The walkaround design gives the boat deep, wide side decks, and side and bow rails add a measure of safety. The helm is to starboard, with a bench seat (and companion to port) and a molded fiberglass instrument panel.

The aft rigging station and fixed bench seat in original models were exchanged in 2005 for a fold-away cushioned bench and a fishbox. Fishing gear includes a 40-gallon live well under the helm seat, two fishboxes with cushions, a raw-water washdown, an insulated cooler and gunwale rod holders. Outriggers were offered as an option.

There’s a swim platform with a transom door, and the lighted cockpit has bolsters for the bench seat. This area also includes two aft-facing seats, along with a cockpit shower.

The cabin sleeps four in a V-berth and a curtained midcabin and includes basic amenities. The galley has a microwave and a fridge, and the enclosed head has a shower. The dinette doubles as the V-berth. Grady-White boats are known for their fit and finish, as evidenced by the teak cabin sole. Top speed with a pair of 250-hp Yamahas is 40 mph.
