Try a new activity, or try a whole range of them: The 280 Vantage is an all-access pass to everything your family wants to do on the water, from discovering remote beaches to finding thrills at the end of a towrope or fishing line.

The Vantage line, by definition, is a cross-platform dual console boat. It brings to the table the best features of a family day boat, mixes in a solid dose of fishing features and puts it all on a foundation of a premium level offshore performing hull.
Of course, it's a Boston Whaler so it's got to have fishing features. This boat comes standard with a 19-gallon (71.92 L) livewell, two 25-gallon (94.64 L) macerated fish lockers. We can add five rod holders to the twelve that are standard on the boat in addition to having rod storage under the starboard bow seat that runs all the way into the helm console.
It’s impressive the way the roominess, functionality and comfort all come together with the new Boston Whaler 280 Vantage.
