A New Departure From The

RIB Industry By Boston Whaler.

A departure into a world where the new Impact 21' soft-sided workboat is the only accept- able platform for operations which demand soft-sides but cannot afford the downtime associated with traditional inflatable collars.

A world where

Boston Whaler's new soft-sided workboat is clearly the best choice for hard work and hard use with a fendering system that sustains incredible abuse but never deflates.

Impact 21' combines the unsinkable, vir- tually indestructible

Boston Whaler foam cored hull with a fully fitted foam collar. This unique fendering system provides full time protection against punctures and abuse of all kinds, and will not deflate. Step into the new world of soft-sided boats.
