Boston Whaler - $12,000 (Hill City)

“A Great Classic 1974 Boston Whaler Nauset With Mega Potential.
Be cautious of early 60's to earlier 70's Whalers claiming to be Nausets with fiberglass consoles.
The true Nausets were only made with real Phillipine Mahogany consoles, seats and anchor locker covers.
The first fiberglass pedestal console with pedestal seat was introduced in 1972 as the limited Cohasset, but the first molded fiberglass console didn't arrive until 1974 (through 2000+) with the Montauk which had the longest production run.
Research the "TRUE" Nauset for it's current classic / collectable value.
You'll be amazed at the prices they are selling for!” One of the earliest models available in the 16-foot hull, the Nauset (pronounced "NAW-sit") featured an elaborate mahogany center console.
The 1970 Whaler catalog described it this way: "It is on the three models of this series [Nauset, Eastport, Sakonnet] and their hybridized variations that the reputation of large Boston Whalers for total excellence has largely been built.
They can negotiate in safety and reasonable comfort the wildest waters ever used for pleasure boating; yet they are adaptable to more casual types of water sport in a degree equalled by few and exceeded by none.
Easy for one man to haul and launch with a trailer, they open to their owners all waterways in the country from spruce-fringed crystal lakes in the North to shallow, bone fish flats and ocean reefs in the Florida Keys-- from Massachusetts bluefish grounds in the rip tides off Martha's Vineyear to the salmon fishery and cruising paradise of the far Northwest; and besides all this they are constructed with a solid uncompromising quality normally expected only on custom-built yachts.
" [ASIDE] Wow, you've got to love that language.
The Whaler catalog was filled with lengthy, complex grammar like that.
Compound sentences were common; semi-colons were peppered all across the catalog; lengthy dependent clauses were the norm.
Now Whaler--like everyone else--tells their story in simple sentences and fragments like this: "So there's less weight, lower cost.
" For me, I like the old language.
It really sold you the boat and the idea behind it.
