*THE FOLLOWING DESCRIPTION MAY NOT REPRESENT THE EXACT UNIT DISPLAYED* The Timeless Utility of the 2001 Grady-White 282 Walkaround The 2001 Grady-White 282 Walkaround stands as a hallmark of offshore versatility, representing a period where the manufacturer solidified its reputation for "unsinkable" hulls and heavy-duty, blue-water capability. When you step onto this deck, you aren't just looking at a boat; you are looking at a platform engineered to handle varying sea conditions with a level of confidence that few other hulls from this era can claim.
The Power of Performance The selection of twin Yamaha 200 horsepower outboards is the "sweet spot" for this hull. These engines offer the perfect balance of power-to-weight ratio, allowing the 282 to plane efficiently without feeling overpowered or sluggish. Whether you are running out to the canyons or navigating a choppy bay, this engine setup provides the torque needed to keep the bow slicing through swell, paired with the legendary reliability that Yamaha owners have come to expect. The ride is defined by the proprietary SeaV² hull, which features a continuously variable vee that tracks true in following seas and remains exceptionally stable while drifting or trolling.
Designed for the Serious Angler The walkaround configuration is the soul of this boat’s design. It provides 360-degree fishability, allowing for seamless movement from the spacious, uncluttered aft cockpit to the expansive bow area. You can chase a hooked fish around the perimeter without tripping over gunwales or struggling with tight corners. Every inch of the cockpit is laid out with purpose, reflecting Grady-White’s long-standing philosophy of placing the controls, rod storage, and bait prep stations exactly where an experienced captain needs them to be.
Comfort Beyond the Fishing While the 282 is a predator on the water, it transitions surprisingly well into a family cruiser. The cabin provides a necessary sanctuary, offering enough headroom and berth space to make weekend overnights not just possible, but comfortable. It serves as a perfect escape from the midday sun, a dry spot for gear storage, or a quiet place to retreat when the offshore spray starts flying. The fit and finish inside the cabin reflect the build quality of the early 2000s, characterized by sturdy cabinetry and straightforward, durable materials that prioritize longevity over flash.
The Bottom Line Owning a 2001 Grady-White 282 with twin 200s is about investing in a proven heritage. These boats maintain their value because they were built to work hard and last. It is an ideal choice for the captain who demands a vessel that doesn't shy away from rough water, but still wants the refined, comfortable layout that makes a full day on the water feel like a vacation. It is, quite simply, a workhorse that cleans up beautifully for a sunset cruise.
