I had whalers all my life. Wanna talk about value, it will hold better then any boat on the market. I can bank on it, I had a 81 whaler bought it for 4500, kept it 4 years sold it for 5000, Any questions just ask, These are UNSINKABLE!!! scout and carolina skiff are knock off whalers just an imitation nothin like the real one......

They're a Brunswick boat now. They still have the reputation, which means a lot for resale, but I doubt they're any better than a comparable boat from another manufacturer.

HA HA look at you all talking about Boston Whalers here on OSO! That is pretty funny...the God's are gonna get upset!:D

Mark, no disrespect and don't take this the wrong way but you can't compare Concept to a Whaler!

13 Sport, Best boat I ever bought my kids. If you dont have a whaler in my neighborhood you are not a "real boater". They just seem to have a charm to them that is just unmistakeable. It seems everybody respects a whaler for whatever its use.

They are very well built tough as nails and hold their value and yes they are expensive. I think of it like a Volvo for the water.

My dad's GF bought an old one, early 80's I think, recently. 13' with a 35 hp on the back. It's a sweet little boat.

But for the price of the big ones, i'd get something else.
