If you’re seeking a refined center console with pedigree, this 2003 Grady-White 283 Release delivers, powered by dependable twin Yamaha 225 four-strokes and paired with a premium double-axle trailer worth $8,000—a standout sportfishing yacht and family dayboat package.

Meticulously cared for by its current owners and kept on the gentle, brackish waters of Maryland’s Wye River, it has experienced far less salt exposure than typical coastal boats, making it an exceptional pick for offshore fishing, coastal cruising, and saltwater adventures.

Beautifully equipped, the Release showcases a custom electronics suite, routinely serviced engines, a VacuFlush marine head, and a windlass for effortless anchoring—everything you want in a bluewater center console that’s tournament-ready yet equally at home as a versatile coastal cruiser.

Turn-key and poised for your next run, this Grady-White blends luxury, performance, and confidence in every mile.

Upgrades and features

Powered by twin 225 hp Yamaha four-stroke engines showing approximately 1100 hours with exhaust updates completed, this center console is specified to run hard and fish smart. At the helm, a 12-inch color Garmin XSV display integrates chartplotter, fish finder, radar and sonar, while a Garmin Fusion MS-UD650 Bluetooth stereo drives four speakers for crisp sound underway. Anchoring is effortless with a windlass and anchor, communication is clear via VHF radio, and safety forward is enhanced by an upgraded bow pulpit with raised bow rails. Electrical confidence comes from a Promariner Pro-sport D20 two-bank, 20 Amp battery charger. The robust T-Top adds gear storage, spreader lights, grab rails, port, center and starboard enclosure panels, and an electronics box, complemented by an electronic dash that shields your equipment when not in use. Anglers will appreciate the leaning-post baitwell with sink and storage, abundant rod holders, fresh- and saltwater washdowns, and the stability of trim tabs, while family and crew relax on upgraded forward seating with a casting platform and plush seat cushions. Below, an enclosed head with Vacuflush and sink ensures comfort for longer days, and a custom double-axle aluminum trailer stands ready for effortless transport.
