Broker's Comments

This well-maintained 2013 Boston Whaler 285 Conquest Pilothouse is in exceptional condition throughout, boathouse-kept in Port Angeles with only ~600 hours on twin 225 Verado engines.

The whisper-quiet Verados provide smooth, refined performance with an economical 25-knot cruise and a top end speed of ~35 knots. The Verados’ electric controls and advanced Troll Control mode allows precise adjustments for ideal trolling speeds at all ranges—making them ideally suited for slow, controlled fishing or any on-water activity.

This 285 Conquest Pilothouse offers proven offshore capability—including successful trips to Swiftsure Bank for halibut and salmon. The legendary unsinkable hull, enclosed pilothouse for PNW weather, full galley, head, sleeping quarters, and spacious cockpit make it ideal for fishing, cruising, or overnights. A diesel heater keeps the cabin comfortable in cooler conditions, while two Cannon Digi-Troll electric downriggers are included for precise trolling setups. The safe cockpit layout features high 28" gunwales for secure footing and confidence when moving about during active fishing.

The boat presents beautifully: the gelcoat on the hull, deck, and nonskid shine, stainless steel hardware is bright, windows are clear without haze or scratches, and painted surfaces are unblemished—clear evidence of consistent care and protected storage.

Priced at $220,000, this low-hour, meticulously cared-for example represents significant savings compared to a comparable new 2026 model.

The protective Port Angeles boathouse is also available for sale at a reasonable price if desired.
