Boston Whaler 130 Super Sport: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Overview

The Boston Whaler 130 Supersport is a modern reinterpretation of the classic 13-foot Boston Whaler, redesigned from the hull up to enhance seating, storage capacity, bottom shape, and styling while retaining the brand's hallmark unsinkable construction. This entry-level boat is delivered with a standard galvanized trailer and offers a blend of simplicity, ease of operation, and durability.

Exterior Design and Features

The 130 Supersport features a fiberglass bench seat as standard, with optional bucket seats that include a passageway between them and can be reversed to serve as a spotter's position for towing sports. These seats are notably comfortable for a boat of this size. Boston Whaler offers several hull color options beyond the standard white, including Classic Desert Tan, Glacier Green, Light Blue, and Light Gray, available either on the hull sides or both sides and bottom. The boat measures 14 feet in length including swim platforms, with a beam of 5 feet 10 inches and a hull draft of 9 inches when the engine is tilted up. The cockpit measures 4 feet 7 inches by 2 feet 5 inches, with a depth of 20 inches forward and 16 inches aft, and a stern freeboard of 13 inches. Standard features include 8-inch cleats on the inboard side of the stern eyes, small raised swim platforms with a boarding ladder to port, and NMMA certification to ABYC standards ensuring the ladder extends 22 inches below the water. Optional equipment includes a bimini top with a stainless steel frame that accommodates fishing rods through a slot in the canvas, a 50-quart cooler secured alongside the helm, a high bow rail, and a bow cushion measuring 4 feet 4 inches by 2 feet 6 inches. The deck is raised 14 inches and incorporates a large anchor locker with a finished underside hatch and a center-mounted 8-inch cleat positioned for anchoring, complemented by a cleverly designed running light that doubles as a chalk.

Helm and Controls

The helm bench seat spans four feet wide and includes supportive backrests. The helm features a five-spoke stainless steel steering wheel with a tachometer, knob light switch, and charging port located just to the right. An optional smoked acrylic windscreen is mounted atop the panel, with a locking glove box positioned below and forward. The shifted throttle lever is mounted on the starboard gunwale with the ignition key behind it. Storage is enhanced by pockets on the back of each bucket seat and a weather-resistant battery box beneath the port bench seat, while the 6.5-gallon portable fuel tank is secured to starboard. Additional amenities include beverage holders and a socket for the white knob light forward of the console.

Power and Performance

Our test boat was equipped with a 40-horsepower Mercury four-stroke outboard, with a 25-horsepower Mercury available as an alternative. The engine drove an aluminum 10.1x14 four-blade Spitfire propeller. At 6130 RPM, the boat achieved a top speed of 31 miles per hour in light chop conditions, with the bimini top stowed, which likely reduced top speed by one to two miles per hour. The optimal cruising speed was recorded at 4000 RPM, yielding 16.5 miles per hour and a fuel consumption of 1.8 gallons per hour. This equated to 9.2 miles per gallon and a cruising range of approximately 54 statute miles, maintaining a 10% fuel reserve from the 6.5-gallon tank. The boat's time to plane was approximately five seconds, demonstrating sufficient low-end torque from the 40-horsepower engine without requiring forward weight adjustment. Acceleration to 20 miles per hour took 10.1 seconds. Maneuverability tests revealed a smooth and enjoyable ride, with the boat maintaining a flat attitude through turns and responding well to trim adjustments.

Conclusion

The Boston Whaler 130 Supersport is a thoughtfully updated version of a classic small boat, offering improved seating, storage, and hull design while preserving the brand’s signature unsinkability. Its manageable size, standard trailer, and engaging on-water performance make it an excellent choice for entry-level boaters seeking a reliable and fun vessel. The combination of practical features and enjoyable handling ensures that the 130 Supersport remains a compelling option in its class.
