I just purchased a 13 ft Boston Whaler as a Father/Son project for my 14 year old. The serial number is BWCA33130873 and I would like to know the original model and Specs. I am also looking for drawings/plan for a side console addition. Thanks for your help.

Chris,

The 13' foot you have uses the 'Straight Year Format' that was used prior to 1974.
By the serial number, it was built in August (08) and is a 1973 (73) model.
The only way anyone would know what model it left the factory as is to send an email to Boston Whaler with your HIN number above.

Tom Clark has provided some drawings for the console and seats for the 13' Sport model which I have included in my drawings page here:

I hope this is what you are looking for. If you need anything else, let us know. There are many people here who can help.
