This 2018 Boston Whaler 345 Conquest Pilothouse combines serious offshore capability with an enclosed, climate-controlled helm deck and comfortable overnight accommodations. Finished with a white hull and blue graphics, this 345 presents a clean and timeless appearance while offering a versatile layout for cruising, fishing and entertaining.

A major highlight is the recent repower with triple 300-horsepower Mercury outboards. The boat also features an upgraded steering system, Mercury Joystick Piloting and approximately two years of engine warranty remaining.

Measuring nearly 36 feet overall with an 11-foot-8-inch beam and a 400-gallon fuel capacity, the 345 Conquest Pilothouse offers substantial range, interior volume and cockpit space without sacrificing performance or maneuverability.

Repowered Performance and Control

The triple Mercury 300 outboards provide a combined 900 horsepower and are paired with Mercury Joystick Piloting for simplified low-speed maneuvering and docking.

The upgraded steering system further modernizes the boat’s handling and control.

Enclosed Pilothouse and Helm

The pilothouse provides excellent protection from the elements and allows the boat to be used comfortably throughout a longer boating season. Large tempered-glass windows provide strong visibility, while windshield wipers, washers and defrost vents support operation in changing conditions.

The helm is equipped with twin 15-inch Raymarine GS165 multifunction displays, Mercury SmartCraft VesselView instrumentation and a 4 kW open-array HD digital radar. A remote-controlled spotlight and self-leveling trim-tab system provide additional assistance when navigating offshore or operating in limited visibility.

Spacious Cockpit and Outdoor Entertaining

The large self-bailing cockpit is designed to support both offshore fishing and relaxed entertaining.

A factory-installed port cockpit foldout bench seat and foldaway transom seating provide generous room for guests. The cockpit table creates an additional dining or entertaining area, while the retractable sunshade provides coverage over the aft cockpit when desired.

The starboard-side wet bar includes a solid-surface countertop, sink, storage and refrigerator/freezer. Opposite, the port-side preparation centre provides additional storage, a pull-out work surface and an electric grill.

Comfortable Cabin and Accommodations

Below deck, the 345 Conquest Pilothouse offers comfortable accommodations for weekends and extended cruising.

The forward berth converts into a queen-size sleeping area, while the cabin includes a galley, enclosed head, storage cabinetry and additional seating. The factory Cabin Comfort Package and 120-volt electric single-burner stove add to the boat’s functionality when spending time aboard.

Factory-installed reverse-cycle air conditioning serves both the cabin and pilothouse, making the interior comfortable throughout a wide range of weather conditions.
