It began in 1958 when Boston Whaler developed a unique method for injecting foam into the hull of a boat. This became known as Unibond™ construction, and it remains at the heart of every Boston Whaler. Not only does this proprietary method create Whaler’ s famed unsinkability, it also contributes greatly to the ride quality and overall boating experience.

The New Montauk combines the classic heritage of the past with a new 5” wider and 4” longer deep vee hull, 25” transom, new built-in 25 gallon fuel tank, separate fish box, rated for 115 hp, hull color options and much more. Now in stock with limited availability.
