Twenty knots at cruise, thirty at the top, from an engine built to be simple rather than spectacular.
The standard Mercury FourStroke 40 horsepower outboard is enough for everyday use, with a 50 horsepower option for an owner who wants a touch more urgency. No feedback steering at the side console keeps the helm light and easy to read for a newer boater, while a 0.2 metre draught opens up sandbars and skinny water that a deeper hulled tender could never reach. A 25 litre fuel tank still returns a 100 nautical mile range, modest numbers that suit a boat built for short, frequent trips rather than long passages.
Boston Whaler redesigned the 130 from the keel up, and every line shows it.
The profile is sharper and more rakish than the model it replaced, with transom extensions standard either side of the outboard that double as swim platforms. The console tips forward to reveal a watertight, lockable storage compartment, a small detail that solves the usual problem of where to put valuables on an open boat. Stainless steel rails run the length of the hull, giving confidence to anyone moving forward while under way, and the whole package reads as considered rather than simply scaled down from a larger model.
Four guests, one open cockpit, and almost nothing standing between them and the water.
The side console layout keeps the whole cockpit free for moving around, with a bench seat at the helm and a cushion topped cooler available to port for extra seating. Forward, the bow cushions lift away to reveal a nonskid casting deck, turning the same space from a sunbathing spot into a fishing platform in moments. An anchor locker and a simple navigation light, its base doubling as a rope guide, round out a layout that asks for almost no maintenance beyond a hose down after use.
Boston Whaler’s unsinkable construction is not a marketing line. It is how the hull is built.
Hull and deck are bonded together and injected with foam under high pressure, a process that adds rigidity and buoyancy in one step rather than treating flotation as an afterthought. Naval architecture, engineering and design all stay in house at Boston Whaler, which is why the 130 Super Sport shares its construction philosophy with every other model in the range. A galvanised trailer comes as standard, light enough to tow behind most family cars and simple enough to launch without a second pair of hands.
A straightforward way into boat ownership, listed new at $18,000, built by a name with decades of reputation behind it.
She measures four metres on a 1.8 metre beam, with capacity for four day guests and no cabins to maintain or crew to pay for. That simplicity is the point. The Boston Whaler 130 Super Sport is not trying to be a small yacht. She is trying to be the easiest, most dependable boat an owner can put in the water, whether as a tender to something larger in the collection or as a family’s first step into ownership. For that role, she is difficult to fault.
