Richard T. Fisher demon-

tures that has made Bos-

ton Whaler the “Unsink-

able Legend” in this

1961 LIFE Magazine

Richard T. Fisher was

posthumously inducted

into the National Marine

Manufacturer’s Associa-

tion (NMMA) Hall of

Fame on September 26,

1996 for accomplish-

ments made in marine

engineering and con-

struction.

History

In 1958, company founder Richard T. Fisher introduced the first Boston Whaler boat in Braintree,

Massachussetts. It featured two significant innovations: first, its twin sponson hull design produced superior

stability and a remarkably dry ride; second, its unique foam core construction made the boat not only du-

rable, but unsinkable as well.

Fisher took every opportunity to illustrate the unique characteristics of the Boston Whaler. His most famous

demonstration was captured in 1961, by Life Magazine. The series of photographs showed the boat under-

way, the boat being sawed in half and ultimately Fisher motoring away in the remaining half of the boat. And

through the years many other demonstrations have proved the toughness and durability of the Boston Whaler

hull. And though you may never cut your boat in half, this only goes to show one thing, people whose

livelihood and lives depend on boats consistently choose Boston Whaler because of their seaworthiness,

dependablility and the inherent safety of a hull that won’t sink even if severely damaged.

Boston Whalers are built to last. For over 40 years Boston Whaler® has strived to make each model better,

providing you with a safe and fun boating experience. That is the reason we offer a 10 year limited transfer-

able warranty. It is also an excellent reason why you can trust the safety of your family and friends to a

Boston Whaler.

PLEASE KEEP THIS OWNER’S MANUAL PACKET IN A SECURE PLACE, AND BE SURE TO HAND IT OVER TO THE

NEW OWNER IF YOU SELL THE BOAT.

This Owner’s Manual has been written to provide specific information about your boat and it should be read carefully.

Keep this booklet with the Owner’s Manual in the Owner’s Manual Packet.

The Owner’s Manual Packet has been compiled to help you operate your boat with safety and pleasure. It contains

details of the boat, the equipment supplied or fitted, it’s systems and information on it’s operation and maintenance.

Please familiarize yourself with the boat and it’s operation before using it.

If this is your first boat, or you are changing to a type of boat you are not familiar with, for your own comfort and

safety, please ensure that you obtain handling and operating experience before “assuming command” of your boat.

Your Boston Whaler® dealer or local Yacht Club will be pleased to advise you of marine safety classes and safe

boating classes in your area.

Introduction

Boston Whaler

Limited Warranty

Boston Whaler warrants to the first retail owner of its 2007 model year boats, if purchased from an

authorized Boston Whaler Dealer and operated under normal, non-commercial use (“Boston Whaler Boat”),

that it will repair or replace, at its sole discretion, any defects in material or workmanship in the Boston Whaler

Boat that are reported within applicable warranty periods, subject to the remedies, exclusions, and limitations

set out below.

1. Limited Structural Hull Warranty - 0-5 Years: Boston Whaler will provide 100% reimbursement for any repair or

replacement as a result of Structural Hull Defect in material or workmanship which is reported within five (5) years (60

months) from the date of the first retail purchase of the Boston Whaler Boat. The “Hull” shall mean the single fiberglass

molded shell and integral structural components. A Structural Hull Defect shall mean a substantial defect in the boat’s

Hull/Deck which causes the boat to be unfit or unsafe for general use as a pleasure craft under normal operating

conditions.

2. Limited Structural Hull Warranty - 5-10 Years: For any defect reported during the 60-120 month period from the date

of the first retail purchase of the Boston Whaler Boat, Boston Whaler will reimburse repairs or replacement as a result of

a Structural Hull Defect in material or workmanship on a pro-rata basis. Reimbursement will be based on the percentage

of the number of months left of limited warranty coverage after the first 60 months have elapsed. A declining value of

1.67% will be assessed to each month after the first 60 month period. For example, a defect is reported 6 years and 3

months or 75 months after the date of purchase. 75 months minus the first 60 months equals 15 months of pro ratacoverage.

The 15 months of pro rata coverage is multiplied by 1.67% and equals 25%. This means 25% of the warranty has expired.

Therefore, any authorized repair and/or replacement will qualify for 75% reimbursement of the total cost.

3. Limited Warranty on Accessories Manufactured and Installed By Boston Whaler: Boston Whaler will repair or

replace any accessories manufactured and installed by Boston Whaler that are defective in factory materials and/or

workmanship which are reported within one year from date of sale to the original purchaser.

Sole Remedy: In no event shall any repair or replacement under this Limited Warranty exceed the fair market value of the

owner’s boat as of the date of the owner’s claim. THE REMEDY OF REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF PARTS

OR MATERIALS THAT ARE FOUND TO BE DEFECTIVE IN FACTORY MATERIALS OR

WORKMANSHIP COVERED BY THIS LIMITED WARRANTY SHALL CONSTITUTE THE

OWNER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AGAINST BOSTON WHALER FOR ANY CLAIMS

WHATSOEVER OF ECONOMIC LOSS RESULTING FROM PRODUCT FAILURE. The terms and

conditions contained in this limited warranty may not be modified, altered or waived by any action, inaction, or

representations, whether oral or in writing, except upon the express, written authority of a management level employee of

Boston Whaler.

Statute of Limitations: Any action for rescission or revocation against Boston Whaler shall be barred unless it is

commenced within two (2) years from the date of accrual of such cause of action.

Other Limitations: EXCEPT AS SET FORTH HEREIN, THERE ARE NO OTHER WARRANTIES

EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROVIDED BY BOSTON WHALER ON THIS BOAT. ALL OTHER

WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF FITNESS

AND MERCHANTABILITY, ARE EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED. BOSTON WHALER FURTHER DIS-

CLAIMS ANY LIABILITY FOR ECONOMIC LOSS ARISING FROM CLAIMS OF PRODUCT

FAILURE, NEGLIGENCE, DEFECTIVE DESIGN, MANUFACTURING DEFECT, FAILURE TO WARN

AND/OR INSTRUCT, LACK OF SEAWORTHINESS, AND ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY

NOT EXPRESSLY COVERED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY.

TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY LAW ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY IS

LIMITED FOR THE DURATION OF THE RESPECTIVE EXPRESS LIMITED WARRANTIES

STATED HEREIN. TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW NEITHER BOSTON WHALER, NOR

THE SELLING DEALER SHALL HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSS OF THE BOAT, LOSS

OF TIME, INCONVENIENCE, COMMERCIAL LOSS OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. SOME

STATES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS,

SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT BE APPLICABLE. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW

THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO

Hull Identification Number

The “Hull Identification Number” is located on the

starboard side of the transom wall.

This is the most important identifying factor and must

be included in all correspondence related to your ves-

sel. Failure to do so will only create delays. Also of

vital importance are the engine serial numbers and

part numbers when writing about or ordering parts

for your engine.

Our Hull

Boston Whaler® hulls are constructed with our pat-

ented Unibond™ construction. This involves shoot-

ing high density foam into a closed mold system.

The foam expands to fill voids in the hull, and when

the finished product is pulled from the mold, the deck

and the hull are chemically bonded to form a solid,

inseparable unit.

When your 210 Outrage needs to be serviced or regu-

lar maintenance is needed, it should be taken to an

authorized Boston Whaler® dealer.

To find a Boston Whaler® dealer in your area call:

If a problem is not handled to your satisfaction:

Discuss any warranty related problems directly

with the service manager of the dealership or your

sales person. Give the dealership an opportunity

to help the service department resolve the matter

for you.

Section 3 - Fuel System

EMPTY TANK:

A fuel tank with levels less than 1/4 full can cause prob-

lems by stalling an engine due to fuel starvation or by

allowing sediment and dirt to enter the fuel supply lines.

Keeping the tank filled will reduce the chance of this

occurance; since the residue will most likely settle to the

bottom of the tank. Monitor the fuel level often to pre-

vent this from happening.

HOSES AND FITTINGS:

Hoses and fittings should be inspected at least every

100 hours. Check the hoses for cracks, abrasions and

deterioration and the strong smell of fuel prior to

starting the engine(s). If the hoses or fittings are dam-

aged or worn, replace them with only marine grade

replacement parts. Your authorized Boston Whaler®

dealer will have all the parts information you will

need.

TANK CLEANING:

Excessive water and sediment may force you to con-

sider having the tank professionally cleaned. If you

are frequently changing fuel filter/water separators

and notice a loss in power, consult a professional

tank cleaning contractor regarding this procedure and

proper disposal of residue and water.

Remote Oil System

The 210 Outrage is equipped with a remote oil system.

This system consists of a single 3- Gal.(11.3L) reservoir

tank and hoses which contain and meter lubricating oil

to the engine.

The tank has an external fill located on the starboard

side of the sterndeck (see detail).

Access to the tank can be reached through the

motorwell access hatch. When recapping the fill

make sure that it is secure to prevent spills and to

prevent the intrusion of water into the system. Your

remote oil tank is secured by a nylon strap and quick

release clip. Little maintenance is required for the

remote oil system, aside from checking the hoses for

There is a danger that static electricity can ignite gaso-

line vapors that have not been ventilated outside an

enclosed area. Use extreme caution when fueling

your boat from a source outside the regular venues,

(e.g. marinas, fuel service stations.)

Your boat has safety features that can be circum-

vented by not adhering to standard fueling practices.

Your boats bonding system protects it from creating

and discharging static electricity.

Your boat must be in contact with the water or a land

based grounding system. Here are some helpful sug-

gestions to keep you safe from static electricity while

refueling your boat.

• NEVER fuel your boat in unsafe conditions such

as: suspended on a sling or in a situation that in-

creases the likelihood of static discharge.

• NEVER use homemade containers to fill your fuel

tanks.

• Fuel carried on-board outside of a fixed fuel sys-

tem should be stored in an approved container or

in a portable tank such as provided for outboard

engines and be stowed safely outside of the engine

or living compartment(s).

• Shut down the engine(s), motors and fans prior to

taking on fuel. Any ignition sources should be ex-

tinguished before filling the fuel tank(s).

• Close all ports, windows, doors and hatches.

• Fueling should never be done at night except in

well-lighted areas.

abrasions and cracks and hose clamps for proper tight-

ness. The tank should not be exposed to ultraviolet light,

rain or seawater for extended periods of time.

210 Outrage-Owner’s Manual

• Always keep the fuel nozzle in contact with the

fuel fill plate or the edge of the fuel tank opening

throughout the filling process.

• Allow areas where gasoline vapors could collect

to be ventilated before starting the engine(s).

• Wipe any spillage completely and dispose of rags

or waste on shore.

• Secure the fill cap tightly.

• Portable tanks should only be filled while on the

ground; never on-board the boat.

Ethanol is an oxygenated hydrocarbon com-

pound that has a high octane rating and therefore is

useful in increasing the octane level of unleaded

gasoline.

The fuel-system components of your Mercury

engine(s) have been tested to perform with the maxi-

mum level of ethanol-blended gasoline (10% ethanol)

currently allowed by the EPA in the United States.

Special precautions should be considered with

the use of fuel containing ethanol in your system. Fuels

with ethanol can attack some fuel-system components,

such as tanks and lines, if they are not made from

acceptable ethanol-compatible materials. This can lead

to operational problems or safety issues such as

clogged filters, leaks or engine damage.

The use of improper gasoline or additives can

damage your fuel system and is considered

misuse of the system. Damaged caused by

improper gasoline or additives WILL NOT be

covered under warranty.

NOTICE

Ethanol-Blended Fuel

The use of fuels containing ethanol higher than

10 percent (E-10) can damage your engine and/

or fuel system and will void the warranty.

CAUTION

E85 FUELS COULD SERIOUSLY DAMAGE YOUR

ENGINES AND MUST NEVER BE USED.

Your boat was manufactured, and shipped from the fac-

tory, with ethanol-compatible materials. Before introduc-

ing gasoline with ethanol into your fuel tank, ask your

dealer if any components have been added or replaced

that are not recommended by Boston Whaler, Mercury

or may not be ethanol-compatible.

FILLING THE TANK

It is best to maintain a full tank of fuel when the engine is

not in use. This will reduce air flow in and out of the tank

due to changes in temperature as well as limiting expo-

sure of the ethanol in the fuel to humidity and condensa-

tion.

PHASE SEPARATION

Humidity and condensation create water in your fuel tank

which can adversly effect the ethanol blended fuel. A

condition called phase separation can occur if water is

drawn into the fuel beyond the saturation point. The pres-

ence of water in the fuel beyond the saturation level will

cause most of the ethanol in the fuel to separate from the

bulk fuel and drop to the bottom of the tank, signifi-

cantly reducing the level of ethanol in the fuel mixture in

the upper level (phase). If the lower level (phase), con-

sisting of water and ethanol, is deep enough to reach the

fuel inlet, it could be pumped directly to the engine(s)

and cause significant problems. Engine problems can also

result from the reduced ethanol/fuel mixture left in the

upper phase of the tank.

ADDITIVES

There is no practical additive known that can prevent or

correct phase separation. The only solution is to keep

water from accumulating in the tank.

If phase separation does occur, your only remedy is to

drain the fuel, clean and dry the tank completely and

refill with a fresh, dry load of fuel.

Electrical System

CAUTION

Never reset a breaker without first determining and cor-

recting the cause of the trip. Should a circuit repeat-

edly trip, have a qualified electrician determine and cor-

rect the cause.

• Never use an open flame in the battery storage area.

• Avoid striking sparks near the battery

• A battery will explode if a flame or spark ignites the

free hydrogen given off during charging.

• The battery should always be disconnected before

doing maintenance on the electrical system.

CAUTION

If equipped with a battery switch, you will need to stop the

engine before moving the switch to the “OFF” position.

CAUTION

Batteries contain sulfuric acid which is dangerous and

can cause serious injury.AVOID contact with skin, eyes

and clothing. If contact occurs, immediately flush the

affected area with large quantities of water and call for

medical assistance

DANGER

Always store the battery in the the battery box. Use the

straps and clamp to keep the box secure while underway.

FUEL FILTERS

Mercury already provides the appropriate level of filtra-

tion to protect the engine from debris. The addition of

another in-line filter to the system will create a possible

flow restriction that can starve the engine(s) of fuel.

As a precaution, it is advisable to carry extra on-engine

filters in case filter plugging from debris in the fuel tank

becomes a problem during boating.

MAINTENANCE

Periodically inspect for the presence of water in the fuel

tank. If any is found, all water must be removed and the

tank completely dried before refilling the tank with any

fuel containing ethanol.

STORAGE

Long periods of storage and/or non-use, common to

boats, create unique problems. When preparing to store

a boat for extended periods, of two months or more, it

is best to completely remove all fuel from the tank. If it is

not possible to remove the fuel, maintaining a full tank of

fuel with a fuel stabilizer added to provide fuel stability

and corrosion protection is recommended.

Section 4 - Electrical System

The battery boxes are located under the console and

can be accessed through the port console door. Your

batteries should always be enclosed in the covered bat-

tery boxes provided with your boat. The boxes will con-

tain any spilled acid, as well as protect the battery termi-

nals from damage or inadvertant shorting from coming

in contact with metal objects. The battery boxes should

always be secured in place by using the straps and tie-

down points provided. The straps will ensure that the

battery will not move around while underway, causing

damage to components stored in the area.

Battery Maintenance

The most life shortening experience for the battery

is to be drained to zero charge before recharging.

When a battery discharges, the active material on both

positive and negative plates converts to lead sulfate,

causing the plates to become more alike in an elec-

trical charge. The electricity conducting battery acid

becomes weaker and the voltage drops. As the bat-

tery remains discharged, the process continues until

recharging the battery becomes impossible. If the

battery does become run down be sure to recharge it

as soon as possible. Over charging the battery can be

just as detrimental to its life as running it down too

far.

Battery maintenance should include:

• Inspect the battery and charging system be-

fore each use for loose connections or wiring.

• Coat the terminals with dielectric grease.

• Keep the battery safe and dry.

• Remove the battery from the boat during

cold weather or long term storage.

Your 210 Outrage uses a battery selector switch to con-

trol the delivery of the DC power from two batteries.

The battery switch is located on the port bulkhead in the

helm console and can be accessed through the port con-

sole door.

The dual battery switch has four (4) settings:

• “OFF”, you will have no power to the engine

or accessories.

• “ALL”, you will have power from both bat-

teries at the same time. This parallels the bat-

teries to assist you in starting the engine(s).

Once the engine is started the battery switch

should be taken off of the “ALL” setting, and

set to charge either battery .

• “1”, you will have power from the port bat-

tery only.

• “2”, you will have power from the starboard

battery only.

When the engine is shut down or not providing a

charge, the system will allow isolation of the star-

board (house) battery. This will allow you to run all

the boats functions without affecting the port bat-

tery. You can run the house battery flat and still start

the engine.

Ignition Shutdown Switch

The 210 Outrage is equipped with an ignition shut-

down safety switch. It is located below the steering

wheel. The ignition shut down safety switch incor-

porates a shut-off switch, switch clip, lanyard and

lanyard clip, which is clipped to the operator. If an

emergency arises where the engine must be shut

down, a pull on the cord to release the clip from the

shut-off will shut down the engine.

This switch is designed to shut the engine off when

the operator of the boat leaves the control station,

either accidentally by falling into the boat, or by be-

ing ejected overboard. This would most likely occur

as a result of poor operating practices.

This switch only works when properly used.The

decision of whether to use an ignition safety switch

or not rests with you, the owner/operator.

It is advised that you wear your lanyard at all times while

operating the boat. It is for emergency stopping only.

Do not use it to shut off the engine during normal op-

eration. The lanyard should be long enough to prevent

inadvertent activation.
