Boston Whaler 110 Sport Boats
A boat for the lone fisherman
There are times when a large fishing boat is just superfluous, especially if your crew is only you and your one fishing pal that never bails. Additionally, high powered boats are restricted in many areas with prime fishing locations in Florida. Having a smaller boat with the ability to turn that boat into a paddle, trolling vessel is ideal for the avid fisherman. The Boston Whaler 110 Sport allows for a nimble and lightweight boat which can be used for fishing, trolling, or for a yacht tender. Before purchasing a Boston Whaler 110 Sport boat for sale, here are a few features you should know about this Boston Whaler boat.
The boat rides low
Being a sports boat, the Boston Whaler 110 Sport boat is designed to sit low in the water. However, the 110 rests rather low with a height of only 3’7 with lowest tip underwater gear is in the down position to the top of the windshield/hardtop. Just to keep it in perspective, the average cooler is 12 to 18 inches in height. That being stated, the use of the boat is best kept to areas where there will not be waves pounding against the sides. Ideally you would purchase a Boston Whaler 110 Sport boat for sale if you are looking for a small, yet reliable boat that would be used in rivers and/or lakes. Use of the boat in the Atlantic is not recommended as even in the calmest of waters the waves would pose a problem with the Boston Whaler 110 Sport’s shallow hull.
Propulsion
Powering the Boat Whaler 110 Sport boats for sale is a 25 ELPT FourStroke Mercury engine; some models may come with the 5 EL Black FourStroke Mercury Engine. The boat’s fuel tank is a carry away and is stored under a bench which runs the width of the vessel. The boat has no-feedback steering, a battery box, and navigation lights as standard equipment, however, there are no big electronics to the boat. Simple throttle navigation and battery powering of the LED lights are the most complicated features of the 110 Whaler Sport.
Navigation of the Boston Whaler 110 Sport must be done sitting down. There is not enough stability in the boat to stand and pilot the craft. While you can get rail bows to help you with getting around, they are not adapted to help in this area.
Getting it fishing ready
While the standard/stock model of the Boston Whaler 110 Sport boats for sale does offer enough to get you started, the boat becomes a bit uncomfortable on long fishing trips if it has not been equipped for comfort. The comfort package offers cushioned forward and aft bench seat cushions; a sun top can also be added for additional comfort. Again, this is a 11-foot boat which sits low in the water and has the ability to carry only 4 persons, so the more cushioning, comfort, and space you can make, the better.
There are no rod holders on the boat and no rocket rod holders either. There is a large storage area in the bow of the boat. However, avid fishermen will need to take into consideration their gear as the storage spaces are limited.
Transport
Many of the Boston Whaler 110 Sports boats come with the optional trailer and cover. As the boat is only 11 feet, moving the vessel from port to port is easy. The lightweight design of the boat makes taking it out of the water, storage, and transportation easier. The weight of the 110 is about 460 pounds dry and 591 pounds wet. If you plan to transport the boat often, purchasing the available lifting harness is advised. If you are purchasing a used Boston Whaler 110 Sport boat for sale, check with the original owner to see if the galvanized trailer, harness, or other amenities are available with the purchase.
