Author Topic:   Not sure if it's a whaler?

cvsa78 posted 09-12-2001 11:40 AM ET (US)
I just purchased a 13'3" whaler, I think. It's a old boat, but built like a brick house. The transom is semi rounded, it has a wall going from side to side, with t pins or metal posts?? Just in front of that little wall is a serial number on the floor of the boat. The number is 7001124. This is the only number on the boat. The floor has curves and up front it has a step with a pattern embedded in the fibreglass, no storage locker. I checked the reference section but the numbers dont seem right. Any Ideas??
Thanks
Mike

Sounds like one. People do fill in the lockers on those. Is the inside blue? Same kinda t-pin(norman pin) in the front too?

The front locker area looks like factory fibreglass. The bow has a funny hook like cleat?

Yes it blue inside. It's a old tender. There arent any rubrails.

Hi Mike,
13 foot whalers had a bow locker and did not have the dropped down bow as shown in your pictures. As well the transom of a 13 foot whaler is not like that....Cehck out this page in the picture section of this site and see the difference.

Hope this helps.... I am not sure if it is a Dell Qauy Dory but it may be. It is not a whaler.
