Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Boston Whaler 110 Tender 2008 vs Boston Whaler 370 Outrage 2012 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a modified vee Boston Whaler 110 Tender 2008 against a deep vee Boston Whaler 370 Outrage 2012 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Boston Whaler 370 Outrage 2012 measures 37,5 feet overall (2012), giving it roughly 26,5 additional feet of deck space compared to the Boston Whaler 110 Tender 2008 at 11,0 feet (2008). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Boston Whaler 110 Tender 2008 tips the scales at 424 lbs — 289 lbs more than the Boston Whaler 370 Outrage 2012 at 135 lbs. That difference is meaningful if you're working within a half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck's tow rating, especially once you factor in a motor, gear, and fuel.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 900 hp, the Boston Whaler 370 Outrage 2012 has a 885-hp advantage over the Boston Whaler 110 Tender 2008's 15-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Boston Whaler 370 Outrage 2012 carries 45 gallons versus 3 gallons in the Boston Whaler 110 Tender 2008. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Boston Whaler 370 Outrage 2012 is rated for 14 passengers, while the Boston Whaler 110 Tender 2008 caps at 4. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Boston Whaler 370 Outrage 2012 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Boston Whaler 370 Outrage 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 14 passengers and at 37,5 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Boston Whaler 110 Tender 2008 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 4 that costs less to run day-to-day.
