Identify 17-foot Boat with Boston Whaler Characteristics
Posted: Sat Dec 16, 2023 12:23 am
I have stumbled on at the local boat that I think is a Boston Whaler 17-foot hull, albeit one that has had a hard life. The lines are clearly Boston Whaler but the top bow section is different than any 17-foot hull I can find photos for online. There has been some bad fiberglass work but the bow looks original. There are no hull numbers or factory plate.
Q1: can the manufacturer and year of production be identified from the photographs below of a boat located in west Africa?
ASIDE: I live in west Africa and imported a nice classic 1987 14-foot Boston' Whaler boat with a Yamaha 30-HP engine. I love the boat, and I built a console from local hard woods so I could drive standing.
