When Boston Whaler’s R&D team set about designing two new models for its Dauntless bay boat series, which runs from 17 to 27 feet, the goal was to give owners an expanded repertoire. The new 220 and 250 models combine fishing functionality for calm inshore waters with the ability to target offshore species along the coast. These boats also serve as versatile platforms for family adventures and watersports fun.
The 220 Dauntless will eventually replace the 210 Dauntless and the 250 will replace the 240, but both boats are new designs from the hull up. Each new deep-V running bottom has 18 degrees of deadrise at the transom, while the older models have 16 degrees. Freeboard is also two inches higher on the new models. “The freeboard increases the ability for the owner to go in rougher water and to get out more often,” said John Barbier, design manager at Boston Whaler. He added that the bow of the 250 has more flare for a drier ride.
