Some manufacturers have tried grid systems beneath the decks as opposed to longitudinal stringers and have failed both in ride and quality. Any differences in ride quality would be due to the relatively flatter bottom and the somewhat tri-hull design.I think Whaler's have gotten a bad rap here. Mainly folks like the ones we have in this forum. Certainly, the BW hulls are more succeptable to crushing loads, but that is not the point of the discussion. But I would sure as hell rather be hit over the head with a piece of wood than a piece of steel.
By using an engineered floor truss constructed out of 2 x 3 framing members at top an bottom with 1/2" OSB webbing, we can create a floor joist that spans longer and is far stiffer than comparable dimensional lumber. I assume that the soft ride comes from the characteristic of the hull to have some give--its structure is not as rigid as a Boston Whaler.I have to confess that I don't have much time underway on any small boats other than Boston Whaler boats. Exceptional as both an offshore fishing boat and entertaining vessel for family and friends, the 370 Outrage is big on space, comfort, and luxury.
Then the upper skin (thickened as needed) will be fastened to the hull using traditional stringer reinforced boat building techniques. Further note: I'm not questioning the bottom part of the hull where the stringers apply their rigidity but the whole structure. Does anyone have any opinions/suggestions? Remarkably low-maintenance and easy to operate, the 130 Super Sport is the most reliable, user-friendly and stylish skiff on the market — and the most fun!Our new twist on a timeless classic gives cruisers a sleeker ride, more options for exploration and better customization. Find Boston Whaler 13 boats for sale near you, including boat prices, photos, and more. Now I am choosing between a 1986 13 Super Sport or a 2002 13 Sport model and hoping to gain better handling in rougher water with the Sport model. In other words, a 11 1/2" "I" beam floor joist constructed of 2, 2x3's and 1/2" OSB is stiffer than a solid 2x12 piece of dimensional lumber. I would like to see comparative data that measures hull stiffness between competing models of similar design between boat manufacturers.

I don't see why the same principals could not apply to boat-building, and perhaps they do.If there is any data on comparable hull stiffness between boat construction techniques, it would be interesting to review the differences between the various construction methods.
It was only the third time the boat was on the water, and it gleamed like the classic jewel it is.
Of course those trolling for criticism have never been in extreme following sea conditions in a classic Whaler hull to know of the Whaler's following sea handling quality.Every hull design and construction is about making compromises. Boston Whaler - Rough Sea - Great South Bay - Long Island - It gets snotty out here sometimes - Duration: 2:41.
A running total tells you what your Whaler costs as configured. It is all relative.You are correct if the force is large enough the foam would compressObviously whaler hulls are thick enough to withstand the wave slam loads such that it's mainly the trapped air in the voids that is compressed and that is where the energy is transferred. I can attest that the "PC" (post classic) 190 Nantucket/Outrage rides great and is surprisingly dry. And that dampening is not only affecting shock and vibration - but also sound.In this end, I am reminded of a friend and myself being able to get right up on deer, coyotes and other wildlife(for photgraphy purposes) when in a wood-stripped fiberglass canoe - but not within a quarter of a mile in a aluminum canoe. Triumph on the other hand have no gelcoat and probably do flex.I think that this theory does not have very much to do with a boat being rough or not. hitting the end of a 4x2 at speed) than a conventional single skinned construction if the GRP is thicker on the single skin hull.I'm presuming/guessing that a conventional single skin hull is say 1/2" thick and a Whaler has an inner skin 1/4" thick and outer skin 5/16" thick, seperated by the foam core.Therefore as the foam offers little or no additional resistance to a point load the Whaler outer hull may be penetrated/holed easier than a conventional single skin that is possibly thicker.T/A drinking bottled beer without shoes is pretty careless if you have a habit of dropping your beer.
First - some will "knock" another brand/design or product other than their own.
With 130 Super Sport's shallow draft, nimble performance and unsinkable safety, you can explore even the skinniest waterways with total confidence. They are hard to find out here in Northern California.
Fortunately we don't experience real impacting loading such as a hammer hit.But, as we have talked about before, the bending strength from a BW hull stems from the separation (provided by the foam) of the load bearing materials (fiberglass shells). Gone are the blunt rounded design.In this picture you can see to the left a 250 OR and to the right a 280 OR.In these pictures you will see a 2007 240 OR and a 320 OR. This would mean that Galaxy, Renken, Raven, Bayliner and other paper thin price point hulls would have a better ride. I figure it can never sink.
