HISTORY
In 1958, company founder Richard T. Fisher introduced
the first Boston Whaler
®
boat in Braintree,
Massachussetts. It featured two significant innovations:
first, its twin sponson hull design produced superior
stability and a remarkably dry ride; second, its unique
foam core construction made the boat not only durable,
but unsinkable as well.
Fisher took every opportunity to illustrate the unique
characteristics of the Boston Whaler
®
. His most famous
demonstration was captured in 1961, by Life Magazine.
The series of photographs showed the boat underway,
the boat being sawed in half and ultimately Fisher motoring
away in the remaining half of the boat. And through the
years many other demonstrations have proved the
toughness and durability of the Boston Whaler hull. And
though you may never cut your boat in half, this only
goes to show one thing, people whose livelihood and
lives depend on boats consistently choose Boston
Whaler
®
because of their seaworthiness, dependablility
and the inherent safety of a hull that won’t sink even if
severely damaged.
Boston Whalers are built to last. For 50 years Boston
Whaler
®
has strived to make each model better,
providing you with a safe and fun boating experience.
That is the reason we offer a 10 year limited transferable

the safety of your family and friends to a Boston Whaler

.
On September 26, 1996, Richard T. Fisher was
posthumously inducted into the NMMA (National
Marine Manufacturer’s Association) Hall of Fame for
accomplishments made in marine engineering and
construction.
