For many many years, Boston Whaler has had limited issues with quality fabrication.

For the larger, more sophisticated boats i.e. larger Conquest and Outrage series, there have been very few issues with the hull.

I recall reading of one boat (3xx Conquest) that suffered an electrical fault when using the anchor windlass. After much investigation by the dealer and factory reps, it was determined there was a flaw in the electrical design.

There have been a few issues with the Mercury engines but they were stand alone events.

One of the reasons why there are not many large boat owners who are members here is they are relatively new and don't have a need for help or advice.

Whaler has always stood by their products. They do take Customer Service seriously for all buyers, large and small. It may take owners a bit longer than they want to resolve an issue, but it gets resolved.
