I saw a 15' rigged for the flats at usedwhalers.com and just wondered if anyone had heard anything about Whaler making a flats boat. Doesn't Porsche make an SUV now? Who would have thought...?

I'm pretty sure whaler did not make them from the factory. I've seen two or three of them. People turn them into flats boats on there own.

No Flats Edition Whalers, but they did do some Cross Tackle Fly Fishing Editions, that are really rare, probably the rarest Whalers I would imagine? Jack.

I put a poling platform on my 15'er. I like the CC idea.

This site has a "flats" Montauk with poling platform if anyone is interested:

That boat was listed in the boattrader months ago. It looks like it may be one of those rare times when a redone Whaler actually came out nice. Who knows?

phatwhaler out.

The Cross-Tackle was designed by Janis'(Draftmanswife) husband Tom. Neat boat but did not sell very well $$$$$.

I have a 13 Sport rigged for Flats Fishing. It is listed in the Marketplace Forum and can be view at:

The boat performs great in the shallows and the platform makes for a nice seat when trout fishing in the Panhandle waters of Florida.
