Hi ,I was wondering if anyone knew what the scale is of the die cast 13' model offered by Whaler. Is it 1/24, 1/18 or something else.Thanks in advance,Dino

It doesn't say but my guess would be 1/24th. I have it on a shelf at work - I could measure it and do the math if you would like.

The hull measures about 6 1/2" long - The real hull measures 160" long - so I would say 1/24th scale. Hope I did that right.

Hi Scott, thank you for looking into this for me.However I am looking for the 13' Whaler scale not the 16' that you have.The reason I am looking for the scale is that we are giving the Whaler 13' model to our son with pictures of him when he was younger in our old Whaler and would like to match up the Whaler model the best I can with his first car which we restored together (a jeep cj7).I really appreciate all your efforts.Thank you,Dino

Dino,
The info I gave you is on the 50th Anniversary 13 model I have.
A 13' Whaler in real life is 13' 4" - which equals 160 inches
The 13 Whaler Model measures 6 1/2 inches long
