Should I buy this Boston Whaler
Found a 84 13 1/2 foot Boston Whaler today. Galvanized cox trailer, 28
horse mid 80's engine, very clean. All three pieces supposedly owned by guy and his dad and brother. Everything looks origional, well kept, engine looks very well tended. the guy wants 2000, I offered him 16 and he did not run me out. What do you think? I would probably keep the Brockway for bigger water and camping, but this one might be fun for pulling the kids around, easier for me to take single handed fishing, and of course, a lot faster without sacrificing too much gas. Any Ideas on how fast this boat should go with the 28 and how much gas I would use running around a big lake all day? Thanks in advance, I love the look of the hulls on these things, tough to do out of wood. Physically I am getting a little old to be horseing the Brockway around by myself too much longer. I should note, I do most of my water sport/drink/fish in fresh water, trailer boating. |

That's about right. I have some experience with this particular model boat and the problems it can have. It's probably a "sport" right? It's a good messing around boat if that's what you want. I'd be glad to bring my engine testing gear and look the boat over for you if you want. A second eyeball can sometimes help. If I decide to do it I will take you up on it. I told the guy the sale would be contingint on a quick run around Crystal Lake (Stafford) and of course he would have to accept my offer. Still don't know which way to go with my boating, I do know I need to adjust or I won't be doing much. I might spend the money powering up my current boat which might better suit my needs, but that Whaler just looks sooooo fun sitting there, so easy to haul around, and great for fishing. Errrrr, I just can't decide. |

Errrrr, I just can't decide.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - I have a nice Brockway 16. High sides, nice swim ladder lots of room. I think if I could get that on plane, I would be happy with it, right now I have hull speed all day long, but no faster. Do you think a 25 would get it going (I have one but I would need to do some work on it) or do I need to go 40-50 horse. For those of you not familiar, a Brockway is a 16 foot by 7 foot flat bottom pointy skiff about 450 pounds bare hull. |

That's a big heavy boat for a 25, don't think it would plane with even one person a board, certainly not with two or three. A 50 would be more reasonable in my experience. Thanks, that's what I figured. I am getting closer to buying the Whaler, I can get it for less than most used 50 horse engines I have seen on line so far just price shoping, Still would keep the Brockway, it is quite a tool for fishing, swimming, cruising, camping etc. I may post some pics later if anyone is interested. |

Well, I decided to buy the Whaler, very excited, gave the guy a call... 15 minutes to late, the guy was taking cash for it as we spoke, bummer. Hope it went to a good home. I hate buyers too ;) |

Unfortunately, I can't seem to get it across to them that I don't want a Yamaha, I don't want a Mercury and just a boat without gages or engine or controls. Unbelievable. Like they are selling zillions of boats. You might also want to take a look at Pathfinder. I took a ride on one today - their 2300 DV is a very nice boat. Or Contender which is also a great boat. |

I see a lot of Contenders, Whalers, Grady's and Edgewater's around here. I just broke the news to my wife over dinner............one more summer with this runabout and we are done with it. She was not happy. |

I'll give you a deal. $13,000 will get you my Ranger with low hours 200 FICHT, jack plate, T-top, new tires on the trailer with new brake pads, spare tire and various other and ends. What a bargin. It is, and I am trying to contact a bud who is into fishing with his dad and looking to upgrade their bassboat to a boat better suited for the sound. I am actually going to be more landlocked in fresh water for a few years so I am looking to get a smaller boat than my current 16 foot workskiff (read lighter, easier to load, unload, push around the yard on trailer, at my age) I was totally convinced about that Whaler, if I do buy another boat, it will be something like that I can take anywhere fast, and fish from all day. I will still keep the Brockway, that is set up great for family fishing and fun, just needs more power and a bigger trailer to be more comfortable to use without a big production. |

Altar boys don't say the 'Gloria' (although they may along with the congregation), but the choir sings it. For altar boys, the challenge is the 'Suscipiat': "Suscipiat Dominus sacrificium de manibus tuis ad laudern et gloriam nominis sui, ad utilitatem quoque nostram totiusque Ecclesiae suae sanctae." |
