Boston Whaler 13 — transom and foam
by Example Logs
· boatbuildlog.com
An example log of the job every old Whaler eventually needs. Shows a restoration where the boat is structurally sound but waterlogged.
This is an example log, not a real project.
It exists to show what a useful build log looks like — dated entries, tagged to a step,
with hours recorded and mistakes written down. The technique in it is illustrative;
don’t follow it as instruction, and check anything structural against your
designer’s drawings. Its hours are excluded from the site’s median figures.
