The cost of a 700 pound tuna in the USA varies widely depending on factors like quality, location, and market demand. At an estimated wholesale price of $25 per pound, a 700 pound tuna could cost around $17,500.
Great boat, no question. But expensive due to unnecessary overhead costs. I bought a center console for $100,000+ less and have no problem going to Bimini from Ft. Lauderdale or wherever. Today's technology contributes to many center console manufacturer's producing great boats for less money.
Nothing against BW but….I would never buy anything paired with a Mercury outboard. I can’t think of any new one that Ive seen with a different brand of outboard.
Nice add....The expert forgets to mention that the foam the use today is a so called closed cell foam. This means the foam won't suck up any water when exposed. If you buy a second hand (classic) Whalet it's a different story altogether. In the old days, the type of foam used was open cell foam which is like a sponge when exposed to water. Many of those boats rotted out on the inside. When buying one, you must be on the lookout for soggy bottoms, a boat that's lying deeper in the water because of the added weight of the water ingress. Leave those boats alone because the structural integrity is compromised. All the marine plywood used to reinforce the Whalers in those days will rott al well, so the transom is compromised al well. It may be a good idea to weigh the boat before buying it. But, you can never be sure if you don't take it apart. and completely restore the boat....
