Built by Boston Whaler in 2023, Boston Whaler 280 DAUNTLESS is an 8.53-meter motor yacht that offers a balanced combination of comfort, usability and presence on the water. Purpose-built for active boating in coastal waters, this model delivers practical performance with modern amenities.
The 280 DAUNTLESS is powered by twin Mercury 250 HP V8 Verado outboard engines with only 188 hours of operation, paired with stainless-steel propellers. Navigation is supported by a Simrad NSX 12-inch multifunction display with integrated GPS and chart plotter, complemented by navigation lights and compass. The vessel features a fiberglass hardtop, welded stainless-steel rails and cleats, and a tough rub rail protecting the hull. Key layout features include forward port and starboard seats with folding backrests, forward console lounge, convertible helm seating, a bow table with dedicated storage, a starboard transom walkthrough for easy boarding, and an insulated bow locker. Additional storage includes an in-floor fish box with pump-out, leaning-post drawers, and aft-seat storage. The vessel is also equipped with a porta-potti head with pump-out, multicolor RGBW LED courtesy lighting, red and white dome lights, stainless-steel steering wheel with knob, watersports tow point, and a bow anchor locker with overboard drain.
The 280 DAUNTLESS suits buyers seeking a capable day boat and coastal cruiser—whether for family entertaining, fishing, or water sports. Its practical storage, versatile seating, and reliable twin-engine setup make it well-suited for regular use across varying Boston-area conditions. The thoughtful layout accommodates both casual day outings and more active pursuits with confidence and ease.
