Boston Whaler: Built for Every Boater

Yes, you can cut a Boston Whaler in two and drive away in the half with the engine. But unsinkability means more than just the unmatched safety of Unibond™ hull construction. It means smart design, high-quality construction and forward-thinking technology. It means premium experiences and comfort year in and year out, whether you’re fishing, cruising or both. It means having the Core Confidence to take on anything from the shallows to the roughest offshore water without worrying about a thing.

Unsinkable Durability

“Unsinkable” isn’t just a fancy word. Learn exactly what goes into making a Whaler the safest, most reliable boat on the water.

Unparalleled Living

When you own a Whaler, you’re a part of something special, something decades in the making. A lifetime of fun and a strong community come standard.

I bought my boat from Tommy Brashares in 2020.  As a first time center counsel boat owner, I was fortunate to meet Tommy and have him as my sales person.  He spent hours of his  time detailing with me various options for different boats drilling down to summarize my requirements.   Never trying to sell me on anything, but just establishing my needs into essentially what I was looking for.  After my purchase he was available and responded rapidly to all my questions and maintenance inquiries.  As time went on, I found him a valued source of information, assistance and guidance with my boat.  I do highly recommend Tommy to provide honest and knowledgeable service.

Tom Patti

I’ve known Tommy for about 4 years. I met Tommy when I started searching for a place to purchase a new boat (first time purchase) in the Fl Keys. I had done some homework and was very interested in a Duel Console boat. I was able to meet Tommy who was always very professional. Tommy most importantly was honest and down to earth and at no time was he pushy.
The boat purchase was obviously a big purchase and Tommy was able to set up a test drive at a Marina with the boat I was interim purchasing. I also met Tommy at the Fort Lauderdale International boat show where I was able to see the boat again. I discovered that once a year Yamaha offers a 6 year engine warranty and Tommy was not pushy and was patient until I decided to purchase the boat. Tommy set up easy financing and had a recommendation for insurance and a boat cover if I was interested.When the boat was received I met with Tommy and finished the purchase with no issues.
It’s been over 3 years since I purchased the boat and I’ve had some issue but he’s helped me with getting them fixed in a timely manner. I look forward to a future purchase with Tommy to upgrade to a larger/better boat.
