I spoke to a local Whaler dealer last week. He stated that Boston Whaler is making an 11 that should be out the end of August. He said the price tag would be around $6,500.00. Has anyone heard of this new model?Offshore20

What year is this '83 or '03... Well I guess the more things change the more they stay the same. I will say that I see more and more 130s and 150s around the Cape than I see classics nowadays. |

What used to be called "Classics" for 2003, are now called "Legends" for 2004. The 110 Sport is one of these. Look here:http://www.whaler.com/Rec/2004_classics.shtm -- Moe |

Oh yeah... there's tender version (no steering console) available with a motor, or with just oarlocks. -- Moe

I'm taking the night off, but I have to post here. I'm dyeing to see one, I'm gonna call my local whaler dealer tomorrow and see if they have one on the floor I can look at.
I like how the steering wheel is in the middle in the sport model,in ruff water I find myself sitting in the middle on mine and steering with my right hand. From the picture of the 11-tender the bow hook looks very high on the hull, anyone else notice this? |

Wonder how come the description says "side console" but in the pictures it is centered? |

They have also continued their new tradition of making the boats heavier and reducing the hp rating. The 11-footer now weighs 400 lbs., with the tender rated from 5 - 15 max hp, and the sport version 5 - 25 hp!They also did away with the Ventura 160, the Defiance 350 and, of course, the Impact 120. |

Wasn't the max on the old 11' 20 hp? It definitely wasn't any more than the current 25 hp rating. |

jaccoserv,I'm sure the old one weighed less that 400lbs. Heck, the old 13 weighed just over 300! |

As I recall my old standard 11' weighs 250lb and fits in the back of a short bed F150, well sort of, it'll ride back there. The davit we use is rated for 500lb so we can leave the 2 stroke 15 HP on when lifting. The new one weighs more and the davit lift is out with 15 four stroke attached, but... that is a great looking boat. B... |
