Built by Boston Whaler in 2027, the 280 Dauntless is an 8.53-meter center console motor yacht that combines versatility with genuine offshore capability. True to its name, this bay boat is designed to be fearless and ready for adventure, whether you're casting inshore or venturing far beyond the breakers for big game fishing.
The 280 Dauntless is equipped with Simrad navigation technology for precise onboard control, a flexible helm seat that transforms from captain's chair to leaning post to stern-facing trolling position, and a spacious forward lounge with integrated storage garage. Fishability is a core strength: the boat features ample rod storage, a standard transom livewell, a pump-out forward fishbox, and optional trolling motor packages including a pre-rig panel or fully installed 36V MotorGuide Xl-5. Additional options include Power Pole stability systems, Seakeeper gyro stabilization, engine configurations ranging from 400 horsepower single to dual engine packages with Joystick Piloting, and a full windshield with wipers and ventilation.
This yacht suits buyers seeking a practical, multipurpose day boat and fishing platform that can handle both protected waters and offshore conditions. The 280 Dauntless appeals to anglers and active water enthusiasts who value customization, reliable construction and the ability to pursue diverse water-based activities with confidence and fewer compromises.
