Boston Whaler 330 Outrage Boats For Sale

The Boston Whaler 330 Outrage is a center console built to fish hard and still carry a family in comfort, which is the balance Whaler's Outrage line has long chased. It measures 33 feet 1 inch to the end of the Euro transom with a 10-foot 2-inch beam, and fully loaded it weighs around 12,500 pounds. That heft is part of the appeal: a 25-footer is only a little more than half that weight, so the 330 settles through chop instead of pounding, making it suited to offshore runs from places like the Chesapeake Bay out to Ocean City canyons. Shoppers comparing Boston Whaler Outrage boats for sale are looking at a hull that an owner can take 50 miles offshore for tuna and still bring back to a marina for dinner.

Power starts with twin 300 Mercury Verados as the base package, with twin 400 (425) Verados available, and Mercury joystick piloting is an option. The 330 Outrage is the first Boston Whaler to use the new T-stepped hull, and it runs flat while keeping its V in the water to punch through waves rather than jump over them. With the larger engines it will run past 50 mph; one run held 52.5 mph at just under 6,000 RPM burning 49 gallons per hour. A more practical cruise sits near 35 to 40 mph: at 4,500 RPM and 35 mph the burn drops to about 20 gallons per hour, and a 40 mph clip runs roughly 27 gallons per hour. Stepping up to the 400s gains only a few miles per hour at the top end.

The helm carries twin Simrad multifunction displays set in an acrylic offset for accent lighting, with the Simrad VHF, compass and spotlight controls housed in the hardtop E-box. A gyroscopic Seakeeper stabilizer is available to hold the boat steady beam-to in a swell, and it runs on the Fathom system, which removes the need for a generator and frees up the space a generator would otherwise occupy in the bilge. The hardtop uses a clean integrated frame and glass design with five rocket-launcher rod holders, spreader and downlights, outrigger-ready mounting, and an access hatch in the top so a spotter can climb up; the hard top is sturdy enough to hold an adult.

The cockpit is laid out for fishing and entertaining alike. The transom holds a centerline live well rated between 44 and 50 gallons, with a second live well optional under the leaning post or the fold-out aft-facing seat. Insulated, macerated fish boxes sit port and starboard in the deck, a hullside dive door carries its own dive ladder, and the transom has a recessed boarding ladder, cross-tie cleats and a stout stainless grab handle. The leaning post was redesigned with a tilted seat and armrests, and can be optioned with a refrigerator, storage drawers, a rigging station, tackle storage or a grill. A single large mechanical hatch opens to the bilge, where Whaler's foam-injected unibody construction keeps the pumps, filters and batteries grouped in one accessible equipment space.

Forward, the bow lounge passes up to 10 rods through it and stores two 5-gallon buckets, with an optional dive tank rack and bow table; molded-in forward-facing backrests turn it into seating for the sandbar or while underway. The console head has a sink, storage cabinet, teak accents, an opening port and stowage for the dive ladder. Anchor handling runs off a windlass with controls at both the helm and a bow remote, plus a washdown. Fit and finish is gel-coated through the hatches and storage areas, and the boat carries a trolling-motor pre-rig package. Points to weigh when shopping used Boston Whaler Outrage boats include battery placement in the bilge, the amount of starboard plastic and through-hull hardware used inside, and a sticker that reached around $600,000 on a twin-425 example. A local Outrage Boston Whaler boat dealer can confirm the engine package, Seakeeper fitment and hardtop canvas options on a specific listing.
