Boston Whaler 290 Outrage

Bold Performance

WhalerStep™ Hull Technology delivers a drier ride and improved fuel efficiency. A flatter running angle and reduced bow rise enhances visibility, improves control, and creates a smoother, more comfortable ride.  The full-length skeg preserves the stable, confidence-inspiring feel that defines Outrage performance.

Roomy Aft Cockit

Fighting the big fish requires plenty of room to maneuver. That’s why the comfortable aft bench folds cleanly out of the way, dramatically increasing cockpit space. Abundant transom- and gunnel-mounted rod holders mean your arsenal is always close at hand. A rear facing bench provides a comfortable vantage between the fights.

Protective Hardtop System
