We have just added a new Photo Section called Whaler Model Index.
The link is on the left sidebar under the "Photo Gallery" section.
Whaler Model Index

At this time we are using the best photos from our members "Personal Pages"...
If you have a model that you would like to post, create your own Personal Page so we can all view that particular model or Submit a Photo in the provided link on the left sidebar.

For the "Whaler Model Index" section, we prefer to use a photo that includes the entire boat which takes up the entire frame of the photo. In our opinion, the best photo is taken at approximately a 45ยบ angle from the rear and from above the boat.

Here is an example of the photos we are looking for.
Joe's Outrage 18'

Jeff,

I have your boat in mind when I add the Outrage 22' model.

Here is another example of the kind of photos we are looking for.
This one is of my Outrage 18'.
http://www.whalercentral.com/images/o...p_view.jpg

We'd like the photos to be 1280x960 and we can do the rest.
Just make sure the boat takes up the entire viewfinder and frame.

So far no photos from anyone.. What's wrong with you? Smile
Boat put away for the winter? Don't have a digital camera?

We have finished upgrading the site and now have a "Submit Photo" feature so people here can send us their photos of their Whaler models.

See this link for information on the Site Upgrade.

We are hoping many of you will send us photos of your model Whaler. Please follow the guidelines above for the photos. Most digital cameras have settings for 1280x960, 960x720, or 640x480.
We would prefer to receive the photos in the above sizes and 1280x960 is preferred. We can take care of any resizing adjustments.

To submit your photo, just click on the left sidebar under Submit Features and select, Submit Photo. Or click on this link: Submit Photo

We are looking forward to obtaining photos of all the different model Whalers so we hope you can help us.

Just a reminder here everyone.

We are looking for One photo of your boat so choose the best photo of your boat using the examples above.

If you have two or more boats then you can submit One photo for each boat.

Please do not submit more than one photo or your boat.
You can create your own personal page and have 20 photos of your boat in there. We are trying to put together the best photos of the various models.

Thanks

We have been adding more photos in the Boston Whaler Models section. We still need to add more categories of the various models and when then were produced but this will take a little time.

This section shows the years the various models of Boston Whalers were produced along with photos inside that members have submitted to us. If you are interested in submitting your photo, follow the guidelines in the first post above.

Please do not email us your photos, instead, use the 'Submit Photo' feature on the left sidebar. This makes it much easier on us as we only have to click a button to accept the photo and the program does the rest.

When submitting a photo, make sure you include the year and model in the title and then a short description including your name.

Joe,

Here is a photo of my 25 Outrage you can use for the Whaler Model index. Tried to get the angle you are looking for, was abit difficult due to my limited camera skills...Mike

(Edit)
Mike, I got the photo...
We prefer to have everyone use the "Submit Photo" feature on the left sidebar.
This makes it much easier for us....

We have just added 16 more Whaler Models folders to this section.
The 13', 15', 16', and 17' models sections are completed.
We now have a total of 52 Models listed alphabetically by size and model.
We even have some newer models like the 130 and 150 Sport series along with the entire, 150, 170 and 190 Montauks.

The years that each model were manufactured is also listed on the folder for reference.
Some of the folders are populated with photos that members have submitted.
If you would like to submit a photo of your particular model, please use the criteria listed in the posts above.

We still have more work to do to fill out the remainder Model/Year reference section.
We still need to add:
Revenge Models
Dauntless Models
Ventura Models
Temptation Models

We look forward to everyone submitting their photos via the "Submit Photo" link on the left sidebar. We hope you enjoy the new Boston Whaler Model/Year reference photo section.

Joe,

I notice that you have a 1989 model Outrage. Are you looking for more than one example of each model? If so, I will look for an opportunity to get a recent picture of the boat.

I have a picture from a pier, while the boat is tied a visitor's dock. The shot is from a nice high angle and off to the starboard side about 6 feet. The only problem with the shot is that I took the picture soon after acquiring the boat. I have done a lot of work to it since then.

Let me know if you would like this picture, at least for the time being.

Thanks,
Doug

Doug,

It sounds like the kind of shot Joe is looking for. Send it in using the "Submit Photo" under the "Submit Content" heading in the navigation panel.

Thanks,
Mike

Using the Submit Photo function I've sent you a shot of my 25 Revenge 1989. I had some difficulty getting the file size down to the required limit so if it does not work well please let me know and I'll take another stab at it.

George,

We received the photo just fine.
We are in the process of adding the Revenge series section so we have not been able to post your photo yet.
As mentioned above, we still need to add these sections:
Revenge Models
Dauntless Models
Ventura Models
Temptation Models

Joe is there going to be a Guardian, Vigilant, Sentry, Alert, Challenger, and Raider sections or could there just be a GCPD section? Also what about the 27' models?

Jeff,

Eventually we would like to have every category. However you may have something on the "CGP" (Commercial & Government Products) section. One section for all the Commercial series Whalers.

I have spent the last couple of days adding the specifications to all the different models in their respective albums.

Length:
Beam:
Weight:
Max HP:
Min HP:
Internal Fuel Tank: (Size or None)
(May add transom height or engine shaft length later)

I have been taking all of the information directly from the Boston Whaler catalogs so it has been time consuming. I may have made a few mistakes along the way. So, if anyone sees any typos about a particular model, please let me know.

I have also added quite a few more Models that had not been entered yet.
Revenge Models, 27' Models, 31' Models, Temptation Models, 18' Newport Models, 18' GTX Models, and a few more.
There are now 65 different model albums listed in this section.

Still need to add:
Dauntless Models
Ventura Models
Conquest Models

If anyone has any photos they want to submit to a Model album, just use the Submit Photo link on the left sidebar under "Submit Content" link.
