Standard Equipment

1. Exterior / deck — STANDARD
Equipment Standard? What it means
Personal White hull ✅ Standard hull color
Cognac upholstery ✅ Standard interior/exterior upholstery
Teak gunwale ✅ Teak trim along the side deck
Stainless-steel handrails ✅ Oval-section stainless rails
Stainless-steel bow pulpit ✅ Stainless structure at the bow
Electric anchor windlass ✅ Electric anchor deployment/retrieval
Stainless-steel anchor ✅ Anchor included
Cockpit storage lockers ✅ Built-in storage
Teak cockpit table ✅ Removable cockpit table
Swim ladder ✅ Retractable/rollaway
Stern freshwater shower ✅ Shower on the aft deck
Cockpit covers ✅ Covers for cockpit seating
Console cover ✅ Helm console cover
Additional battery ✅ Extra battery for the electrical system

These are explicitly listed in Invictus' published standard-equipment specification.

2. Helm / driver's area — STANDARD

The TT 280 has a fairly unusual stand-up helm arrangement.

Standard:
Stand-up driver's position
Storage cabinet below/around the helm
Integrated sink
Stainless-steel helm/handrails
Electric trim tabs (flaps)
Trim-tab indicator
Additional battery
Console canvas/cover

The sink is particularly useful because the helm cabinet isn't simply a seat—it incorporates storage and a small service area.

Important:

GPS/chartplotter is NOT listed as standard.

So if you see a TT 280 advertised with a large Garmin screen, don't assume it came that way from the factory. It is an option.

3. Cabin / below deck — STANDARD

This is one area where the TT 280 is more sophisticated than it initially looks.

The boat has a forward enclosed area that Invictus describes as providing:

toilet
shower
dressing area
storage/equipment

The standard specification includes:

✅ Full cabin equipment
✅ VacuFlush marine toilet

That's a real electric VacuFlush marine toilet, rather than simply a portable chemical toilet.

The freshwater capacity is 70 L (18.5 US gal).

However, the manufacturer describes the TT 280 as having 0 cabins / 0 toilets in its technical-specification table, which appears to be a classification issue because the detailed description and equipment list clearly identify the enclosed forward WC/shower space.

4. Entertainment — STANDARD
Fusion Hi-Fi system

The published Invictus specification lists:

Fusion marine stereo
2 speakers

So the stereo is standard equipment on the TT 280.

I'd verify the exact speaker configuration on a 2026 boat because some newer dealer specifications have listed four speakers.
