2019 Boston Whaler 150 Montauk
THE UNSINKABLE LEGEND!! THIS BOAT WILL NOT SINK!!!! FOAM FLOATATION A vessel can be kept afloat using solid installed foam. Recall the Boston Whaler commercials where a tender is cut into thirds and remains afloat with a person in each section? However, the drawback to using installed foam in a cruising boat is quantity or volume of foam needed to keep a flooded displacement hull afloat. SO IMAGINE THE FOAM BOSTON WHALER ADDS TO MAKE THIS CLAIM!! A 30,000-pound boat, (a common displacement for a 45-foot to 50- foot passagemaker) would need nearly 500 cubic feet of solid foam within the hull to keep it from foundering when flooded. Fitting 500 cubic feet of foam into a yacht's hull would be a feat, requiring every nook and cranny to be filled since 500 cubic feet equals a space nearly 20' long, eight feet wide and three feet high. To keep such a boat afloat, foam three inches thick inside the entire hull would be needed, and that would only support the boat to its gunwales.
Boston Whaler’s boat-building heritage is evident in the classic 150 Montauk®, a model of dependability, no-nonsense center console design and efficient, turnkey operation that never fails to deliver. Highly capable for both fishing and watersports, the 150 Montauk adds superior safety, easy cleanup and a standard trailer to qualify as a true standout in reliability and convenience.
