here's my new project boat, a 13' whaler copy. I believe it was called a Rhino Whaler. 1968 model with new gel inside and out. it lacks the little splashwell that a true whaler has, which I like as it adds a little room. the coast guard tag says it's rated for 60hp and 6 people, lol...




I'm planning to rig it with an evinrude 50. My plan is to share this boat with my wife, hopefully she will like it enough to stop riding her jetskis and I can get rid of those blood sucking pos's---i bleed every time I work on them!!!!!!

here's my cousin's 68 whaler we built about 2 years ago. I plan to build mine very similar to this one, but with a narrower console and a small leaning post. My cousin's is a FISHING MACHINE!!!! Very stable and perfect for 2 man fishing. just sips the fuel with a yamaha 40.
