Boston Whaler to meet very limited size restriction

Postby michaeljdodd » Thu Oct 17, 2019 12:22 pm

[Seeks advice on Boston Whaler hulls with] less than a 60-inch beam. The constraint CAN NOT be altered.

The 11-foot hull meets your criterion.

Nah...he is in Minnesota or someplace way north. Mine is also set up to be a tender and has a set of snap davits installed.

If your 11-footer were a lot closer to Michigan, I might be a buyer. I am looking for a stable boat to use to get out from shore to a boat on a mooring.

For the past several years it was used 2-3 weeks per year in Rhode Island. Prior to that, a [mega] yacht tender (kept covered).
