The Grady-White 281 CE Coastal Explorer is the ultimate fusion of inshore fishing capability and offshore comfort, built on Grady-White's legendary SeaV²® hull for a smooth, dry, and stable ride. This center console is engineered to handle shallow water fishing one moment and thrilling offshore adventures the next.

Performance and Power

Engine: Powered by twin, reliable White Yamaha F300 four-stroke outboards with Full Maneuverability (FM).
Steering: Equipped with Helm Master® EX with Integrated Digital Electric Steering for unmatched control, effortless docking, and smooth handling.
Top Speed: Capable of achieving impressive top speeds on the water.
Hull Design: SeaV²® hull with a continuously variable deadrise that provides a fantastic feel and performance in all conditions.

Versatile Cockpit and Seating

Aft Deck: The newly designed aft bench seat is highly versatile, converting from comfortable forward-facing seating to a large, clear casting platform with the backrests removed.
Innovative Sport Deck: Features a standard, portside, electrically-actuated folding platform and a stowable ladder, making reboarding from swimming or snorkeling exceptionally easy.
Bow Lounge: The spacious bow seating area includes electro-mechanically adjustable backrests, quickly transforming the space from a forward lounge to a sun pad or a dedicated casting deck.
