This is an index of drawings available for various models of Boston Whaler. The index lists the components shown by the drawing, the original provider of the drawing, the format of the drawing, and a hyperlink to the online source of the drawing.
The original source of many of the drawings that contain the Boston Whaler title block was probably Chuck Bennett. Chuck was the Customer Service Manger at Boston Whaler, and for many years he was been extraordinary responsive to requests for OEM drawings of older Boston Whaler models, generally responding by email with attachments of a scanned drawing. The original factory drawings that appear on the continuousWave website have all been retouched to improve their presentation (i.e. to remove spurious material attributable to repeated copying, etc.) but are otherwise true copies of the originals as far as is known.

Excellent electronic drawings of the Boston Whaler 13-foot and 16-foot boat interior wood components (such as the SAKONNET console and seat) are available for purchase at very reasonable prices from Ward Grafton, the draftsman who created them using CAD software and original components or drawings.
There were many drawings formerly in the list above that were being hosted by other web resources, but unfortunately many of those links are now dead links. I have removed those drawings from the listing. Wood locating diagrams for just about every Boston Whaler boat model are still available from Boston Whaler customer service. They will email a scan of their older drawings on request.
