I bought my
1988 15' Super Sport in San Diego County. I found a number of Whalers available a few years ago, primarily though Craigslist, though the one I bought was listed on E-Bay. I didn't see much on Boat Trader either.
Orange County seemed to have the greatest collection (its also where the SOCAL Whaler dealer, Schock Boats, is located). I also found a number available in the Las Vegas area.
Beware, when I was looking, a good number of the advertised Whalers were scams. The main clue was vessel registration numbers not matching the state the boat was supposedly in. Everyone of them turned into some story about the owner being out the country and wiring money....
Good luck with the search. If you do go new, and end up buying from Schock Boats, Jim Hatch took very good care of me there.
