About

Company history

The history of Boston Whaler brand started shortly before the company was founded. In the mid 50's, inventor and founder Dick Fisher turned his attention to a new material - polyurethane foam - and concluded that it could be used in shipbuilding.

By trial and error, Boston Whaler 13 was born in 1956, and in 1958 the company began mass production in Massachusetts. The boat attracted a lot of interest from customers. It was light compared to similar models of competitors, made of other materials. This made it possible to install smaller motors without losing speed.

It also attracted high load capacity and unsinkability. As evidence of the latter, in 1961 the famous American magazine Life published photos of Dick Fisher sawing the boat in half in the middle of the lake. Contrary to expectations, both halves remained afloat, and the inventor was even able to reach the shore using the stern with the motor.

Despite the fact that Boston Whaler positioned its boats for recreational ponds, its products have attracted the attention of the U.S. Navy and Coast Guard. The boats were actively used in the Vietnam War and in rescue operations on rivers and lakes.

Since 1969, the company has managed to change three owners and suffered a number of financial failures, but the «Boston whaler» proved that it produces not only unsinkable boats, but is not going to go down itself. In 1996, Boston Whaler was bought out by Brunswick Boat Group and now makes a significant contribution to the earnings of the corporation.
