Experience the perfect day on the water with the 2025 Boston Whaler 280 Dauntless—your go-anywhere, do-anything adventure vessel. Imagine powering out of St. Andrews Bay, the Dauntless’s advanced Mercury outboards delivering quick acceleration and smooth cruising, perfect for zipping over to Shell Island or exploring the emerald waters along Panama City Beach. Precision engineering combines sporty performance with reliable efficiency, ensuring your outings are always exciting and worry-free.

The 280 Dauntless hull is designed for versatility on the Gulf Coast. Boston Whaler's unsinkable construction and soft-riding V-hull let you cut effortlessly through bay chop or open Gulf stretches. Thanks to a shallow draft, beaching up at Shell Island is simple, while reinforced stainless-steel hardware and rugged rails provide confidence to handle salt and sun all season long.

As evening falls, the Dauntless lights up your adventure. Integrated LED cockpit and navigation lighting set the tone for twilight cruises along the coastline or relaxed anchorages near the jetties. Underwater LEDs create a captivating glow—great for both marina ambiance and after-dark sea life watching.

Step onboard and enjoy a space built for every moment. Plush helm seating, spacious forward lounges, and clever storage keep your gear organized. The convertible cockpit makes entertaining after a day on the water a breeze, whether you’re fishing St. Andrews Bay, relaxing at Shell Island, or heading back to the marina with friends. The 280 Dauntless is ready to make the most of every Panama City Beach outing.
