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!

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.
