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. I have constructed this index because many readers had apparently not found the hyperlinks to many of these drawings which were embedded in the text of articles in the Reference Section. I hope that this presentation will make it easier to located the drawings that are available.
The original source of many of the drawings that contain the Boston Whaler title block was probably Chuck Bennett. Chuck is the Customer Service Manger at Boston Whaler, and for many years he has 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.
In almost all cases, the images of the Boston Whaler OEM drawings have been re-forwarded via email from the recipient who got them from Chuck Bennett. I have not tracked or recorded the precise path taken by these drawings as they travelled electronically from Boston Whaler to their current online locations, but I do extend my thanks to all who have contributed their electronic copies of these drawings.
Joe Kriz had collected a number of drawings from Boston Whaler original sources and others, and he also had nicely drafted many others drawings of components used in the assembly of a Boston Whaler. Unfortunately the hyperlinks were all broken recently. I will try to relocate these drawings and post links to them.
