Boston Whaler
®
is dedicated to creating a superior
product which provides comfort, performance, safety,
and reliability. All of our boats comply with United
States Coast Guard safety standards and are designed,
engineered, and manufactured in accordance with
applicable recommendations and guidelines from
the American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) and
certified by the National Marine Manufacturers
Association (NMMA).
Construction Standards
Hull Construction
Boston Whaler hulls are constructed with our
patented unibond-construction process (see Figure
2.1.1). This involves foam injection into a closed-
mold system where the foam expands to fill all voids
in the hull. When the finished product is pulled from
the mold, the hull and deck are chemically bonded
to form a solid, inseparable unit.
Hull Identification Number
The hull identification number is located on the
starboard side of the transom (see Figure 2.1.2).
This is the most important identifying factor on this
vessel, followed by the engine serial number. Be sure
to reference these numbers when contacting Boston
Whaler about the vessel or engine.
Vessel Servicing
When this vessel requires service or maintenance
work it should be taken to an authorized Boston
Whaler dealer. To find a dealer in your area call
800-942-5379 (domestic/international). In the
unlikely event that a problem is not handled to your
satisfaction, discuss any warranty related problems
directly with the service manager of the dealership
or your sales person. Please give the dealership an
opportunity to help the service department resolve
the matter for you.
Manufacturer’s Certification
All boats must comply with federal regulations,
where applicable. The specifications and dimensions
table, listed later in this chapter, indicates the
maximum weight, number of persons, and maximum
horsepower this vessel is rated to handle. Do not
exceed these specifications.
