Grady-White Sailfish 282

This 2002 Grady-White Sailfish 282 is a premier example of why this model remains a benchmark in the walkaround category. Perfectly balancing the requirements of a serious offshore fishing platform with the comforts of a weekend cruiser, she is built on the legendary SeaV2 hull for a notoriously soft, dry ride.

Cockpit & Helm

The versatile large cockpit features a functional open layout for fishing-complete with a livewell, insulated fish boxes, and ample tackle storage. For social outings, the fold-up seating quickly transforms the space for entertaining. The helm offers excellent 360-degree visibility and intuitive access to all controls.

Accommodations

Below deck, the cabin offers a comfortable escape with a double berth, a compact galley to port, and a fully enclosed head with a shower to starboard.

Deck Access

Wide side-decks with strategically placed handholds provide safe, easy access to the foredeck and windlass.

Engine Performance & Propulsion

The helm offers excellent 360-degree visibility and intuitive access to all controls. Built on the legendary SeaV2 hull, this vessel is powered by Twin Yamaha F250 Four-Stroke outboards, providing the ideal balance of reliability, torque, and fuel efficiency for this hull. Effortless cruise between 31-33 mph at 3500-4000 RPM. Capable of reaching 48-51 mph at Wide Open Throttle (WOT). Optimized for long-range offshore trips with an estimated burn rate of 18-22 GPH at cruise. The increased horsepower ensures a superior hole shot and the ability to maintain a steady plane even when fully loaded for fishing.
