Author	Topic:   help with an old 13 ft
CVB	posted 07-07-2008 12:47 AM ET (US)         I just viewed what a claimed to be whaler made in the UK. Or perhaps sold in the Uk. Although it has the correct hull and whaler features of a 60's whaler it has some strange features as well. The floor is not only flat it has a channel down the middle of it. It even has a screw cover for a bilge. Also the front seat is open to the hull, or the fiber glass. I can see the foam core from here except the foam channels down each tri hull. I have never seen this before and doubt the authenticity of the boat. It could have been a modified hull. Anyway I am just checking. Don't think I will touch it but I am still looking for a 13. Cheers
