Do I have a 20ft Custom Boston Whaler? Need Help Identifying Boat

Howdy, Texas student researcher here living in Costa Rica doing turtle research. I am buying a boat and was hoping to get some help understanding what she is. I have poured over the resources on this site and others but cannot make heads from tails while trying to identify her and am beginning to think she is a custom of something as mentioned in the sticky post at the top of the boat thread.

The signature features I cannot seem to find in any of the resources on this boat are the rear seats and the rear platform. This is what is leading me to the idea of custom. However, there was a lot of models without photos so was hoping someone might have the ability to fill in the gaps for me.


From the paperwork here are the details (it is in Spanish so I am translating best as I can). The truth I would not even trust much if it based on how the legal system and things work here.


Eslora/Length: 6.12m / 20ft 1in

Manga/Sleeve: 1.8m / 5ft 11in

Puntal/Strut: 1.09m / 3ft 7in

I have no idea who manufactured the boat. But, for elimination, I don't believe the hull was made by Boston Whaler.

I agree with Butch, it does not appear to be a Boston Whaler Hull.
