Hello Everybody ,
First of all, I would like to state that this is an AWESOME site and i am very happy to be a member of the Whaler community.
I am from Singapore and just last week become the proud owner of, i believed, the only 1992 Boston Whaler 23wa in the country.
I have gained a lot of knowledge on whalers from this site by browsing around and I would like to thank Administrators and all Members for their contributions in regards to this beautiful boats.
Thank you

No CES,
Clifford Pier used to be the place where bumboats alight and send seaman to and from the big ships. Its closed up now and become a big sea water dam, called the Marina Barrage.
We have to berth our boats at private Marinas, theres a couple of them here, the upmarket '1 degree' for super megayatchs. Mine is currently berthed at Punggol Marina. Moving it to Raffles Marina this saturday.
Im a retired cop, my beat was the Orchard area for the last 27 years, i bet you'll be surprised at the total changes in Orchard Road.
Orchard Towers still exist though if you've been there in 1998.
