In 1958, company founder Richard T. Fisher
introduced the first Boston Whaler
®
boat in
Braintree, Massachussetts. It featured two signifi cant
innovations: first, its twin sponson hull design
produced superior stability and a remarkably dry ride;
second, its unique foam core construction made the
boat not only durable, but unsinkable as well.
Fisher took every opportunity to illustrate the unique
characteristics of the Boston Whaler
®
. His most
famous demonstration was captured in 1961, by
Life Magazine. The series of photographs showed
the boat underway, the boat being sawed in half and
ultimately Fisher motoring away in the remaining
half of the boat. And through the years many other
demonstrations have proved the toughness and
durability of the Boston Whaler hull. And though
you may never cut your boat in half, this only goes
to show one thing, people whose livelihood and lives
depend on boats consistently choose Boston Whaler
®
because of their seaworthiness, dependablility and
the inherent safety of a hull that won’t sink even if
severely damaged.
Boston Whalers are built to last. For over 50 years
Boston Whaler
® has strived to make each model
better, providing you with a safe and fun boating
experience. That is the reason we offer a 10 year
limited transferable warranty. It is also an excellent
reason why you can trust the safety of your family
and friends to a Boston Whaler
® .
On September 26, 1996, Richard T. Fisher was
posthumously inducted into the NMMA (National
Marine Manufacturer’s Association) Hall of Fame for
accomplishments made in marine engineering and
construction.
1958, The legend is born
as company founder Dick Fisher
demonstrates a Boston Whaler’s
total unsinkability.
