1976 Boston Whaler 16 Sakonnet

A Boston Whaler Sakonnet hugs the rocks, putting a pair of anglers at the center of some serious fishing action.

The Sakonnet was the builder’s pride, “a luxuriously practical sport fishing vehicle,” according to the catalogue, notable for a console with a reversible pilot seat, under-seat stowage and a bow platform. Other models using the new hull included the Nauset; it had a fixed seat, full console with a wind shield, and a front seat, along with lights and single-lever engine controls. The East port was similar, but came with an aft seat and cushions for the comfort of guests.
