And again as the actual and non catalogued history within the
The CML Group Years 1969-1989
http://bostonwhalersforsale.com/about...n-whalers/
A stable with strong brand names and high quality products like Nordic Track and The Nature Company. Boston Whaler was CML’s first big acquisition, and they seemed to be a good fit with the Whaler corporate culture.
Sales boomed and more models were added to the product line. In 1970 the 21-Outrage appeared. In 1972 the 19-Outrage was introduced. In 1973 the first 21-Revenge model was created. In 1974 I/O powered Revenge and Outrage models were featured. In 1975 the 15-foot hull was added. Many other models and refinements continued throughout the 1970′s. Jim Hebert, February 11, 2001.

Another well related and most telling facts about this Classic Outrage 19 models will be that
The model dated and manufactured in 1972/1973 was actually called the Boston Whaler 19 and NOT the Outrage 19.
As per classification
19-BOSTON WHALER 19' 4" 7' 4" 10" 1500-1600 1990 4000 170 65 20" 40 1972-1973
19-OUTRAGE 19' 4" 7' 4" 10" 1500-1600 1990 4000 170 65 20" 40 1973-1978
19-REVENGE 19' 4" 7' 4" 1600 4000 175 65 20" 1973-1978

The reason for clarifying the difference between the Whaler 19 1972 and 1973
And the Classic Outrage 19 1973/1978 has been observed to show an unmistakable difference in heft and depth between the two hulls.
I have personally had this impression while surveying one well documented 1972 Whaler 19 for sale that I came very close to buying.
Intriguing event that left me with a feeling of having looked at more of a copy than the actual real Classic that was waiting for me at home.
