A happy new year to everyone.

I am currently researching and writing a history of the Boston Whaler's first sixty years. The working title is Unsinkable: The History of the Boston Whaler. This is an independent project (I'm not affiliated with Brunswick) with an anticipated publication in the fall of 2017. I have spoken to a number of long time Whaler fans and former employees, but I could use some additional help.

One of my objectives is to tell the story of the Whaler through the everyday experiences of those who know these boats best. Whether you helped build the Whaler in the 1960s alongside Dick Fisher (there are a few out there), spent a career repairing or selling the Whaler, or just recall your first time on the water, I'd like to hear your story.

Thanks in advance,

Matthew D. Plunkett
