Author	Topic:   13’ model iterations over the past 12 years
Seattlerocket	posted 11-01-2001 07:36 PM ET (US)         I think I must be seeing conflicting info in various post. Is the 2002 different then the 2000? I thought the last change was in 1999? Can anyone detail the changes in the hull shape of the various 13' models over the past 12 years? I have been to the 13' reference page but would love to see some good photos of the various hulls. I am a first time boat owner and consider myself lucky to have started with my 2002 13' sport w\Merc 40 2 stroke. I was this close to buying a Logic too. :)

The last of these was available in 2001 (I think) as the 13' GLS. The current 13' Sport, which you and I own, has an entirely new hull and was introduced in 2000. It looks similar at first, but once you've been looking at Whalers for while, you can tell them apart a mile away. I'm in the same boat as you, no pun intended. If I had to pony up for the GLS, I probably wouldn't own a Whaler today! Thank Brunswick for their one affordable Whaler model...
