Whaler Central - Boston Whaler Boat Information and Photos

Dick,

Thanks for the offer but Brunswick has a new statement on most all of their drawings now.
If you look at the new wood locating drawings, you will see something like this:
This document is property of Boston Whaler Inc....
This document must not be copied or disclosed to others without written permission from Boston Whaler Inc...

You can check it out on their parts page here:
http://www.whalerparts.com/

The older drawings do not have this type of warning so it is safe enough to copy without getting into trouble as long as a person doesn't sell the older drawings either as they do belong to Fisher-Pierce, or Boston Whaler.

We do not want to get into any copyright problems with Boston Whaler/Brunswick so unless we get permission for the newer drawings, we are not going to be posting those here as they are already available from the link shown above. Also, no sense in posting something that is already available on the Internet. We realize the 150 Montauk isn't posted there yet but we're sure it will be available soon.

We do however feel it appropriate to have available the older wood locating drawings and information as they are not available on Boston Whalers website and they did not have that property of Boston Whaler statement attached.

We also realize that these drawings and information actually belongs to anyone who buys a Whaler. Everyone who buys such a Boston Whaler boat receives a wood locating drawing which then belongs to them. It was given to them and they own it. However, to reproduce it as the statement says, is a NO, NO without their written permission.

So, to keep everything legal, we honor the above statement and we also do not sell any items or material that belong(ed) to Fisher-Pierce or Boston Whaler.
