2018 Boston Whaler 230 Outrage

Step aboard this 230 Outrage and the first thing you notice is how thoughtfully the space is laid out. The wide bow with wraparound seating invites you to stretch out with friends, then quickly converts into a serious casting platform when it’s time to chase fish. Deep freeboard and Whaler’s unsinkable construction give a secure, confident feel, even when the chop stacks up. At the helm, the tempered glass windshield and hardtop create a protected command center, with sightlines that make running in mixed conditions far less tiring. A roomy head inside the console keeps family and guests comfortable on long days, and the clever storage throughout swallows gear, rods, and water toys without cluttering the deck.

In these waters, conditions can turn from flat calm to snotty in a hurry, and that’s where the 230 Outrage shines. Its deep-V entry and substantial weight let it shoulder aside wind chop while staying nimble enough for tight passes, shallow bays, and crowded inlets. The size is ideal for trailering to different ramps and exploring new sandbars, reefs, and nearshore structure without needing a big crew to handle lines. Families appreciate the secure cockpit depth and cushioned seating when the afternoon breeze kicks up, while anglers value the livewell, rod storage, and 360-degree fishability around the consoles. It’s a capable, confidence-inspiring platform tailored to this kind of variable coastal boating.
