Description
Just listed and highly recommended! The perfect family dayboat with all of the right options and just 50 hrs on her twin Mercury 250 JPO’s!
Say When features Mercury’s Joystick piloting and SkyHook, an electric SureShade for additional shading in the aft cockpit, comfortable SeaDek underfoot, and a custom Strataglass enclosure on all 4 sides. A large swim platform, portside dive door, and bow and stern freshwater showers make it easier than ever to get in the water.
The 280 Vantage is a dual console designed to deliver exceptional stability, comfort and ease of operation. The 280 has a slightly wider beam, a more traditional bow shape, and a reworked running surface in comparison to her predecessor, the 270.
Her twin Mercury 250’s offer a top speed above 40 mph.
Amenities for socializing include an electrically actuated cockpit SureShade, spacious lounge seating in the bow, and Whaler's uniquely convertible helm companion zone seating. New features make the 280 Vantage a capable fishing boat as well, including integrated stainless steel rod holders, a transom livewell, and two large cockpit fishboxes that double as extra storage for keeping beverages on ice.
