HISTORY
Richard T. Fisher was posthumously inducted
into the National Marine Manufacturer’s
Association (NMMA) Hall of Fame on September
26, 1996 for accomplishments made in marine
engineering and construction.
PLEASE KEEP THIS OWNER’S MANUAL PACKET IN A SECURE PLACE, AND BE SURE TO HAND
IT OVER TO THE NEW OWNER IF YOU SELL THE BOAT.
1958, The legend is born
as company founder Dick Fisher
demonstrates a Boston Whaler’s
total unsinkability.
In 1958, company founder Richard T. Fisher
introduced the first Boston Whaler®boat in
Braintree,Massachussetts.Itfeaturedtwosignificant
innovations: first, its twin sponson hull design
produced superiorstability and aremarkably 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
dependonboatsconsistentlychooseBostonWhaler®
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®.

SAFE Boating means:
• Knowing the limitations of your boat
• Following the “RULES of the ROAD”

objects in the water.
• Not boating in water or weather conditions that
are beyond the boat’s and operator’s
capability.

• Maintain your boat and its safety and other
systems as recommended in this manual.
