287 Walkaround

EDITOR NOTES: Durable, low-cost cabin boat for fishing or cruising—what brokers call a lot of boat for the money. The wide 9'8" beam makes this one of the roomier walkaround boats in this class. The sidedecks are wide so getting around is easy and safe. Standard features of the 287 include an integral bow pulpit with roller, raw-water washdown, insulated fish/storage boxes, cockpit bolsters, hydraulic tilt steering, trim tabs, transom livewell, tackle storage, cockpit rod racks, gunnel rod holders (4), swivel helm seat, cockpit lights, swim ladder, aft-facing cockpit seat and transom storage bins. Options included a hardtop with radio box and a removable rear bench seat. Spartan cabin with standup head/shower, full-service galley, removable table sleeps two. About 45 mph top with twin Mercury 225 outboards.
