tures that has made Bos-

Richard T. Fisher was

into the National Marine

Manufacturer’s Associa-

tion (NMMA) Hall of Fame

on September 26, 1996

for accomplishments

made in marine engineer-

ing and construction.

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 durable, 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 underway, the boat being sawed in half and ulti-

mately 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 transferable 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 BOOK AND OTHER MATERIALS 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 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.

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

authorized Boston Whaler dealership chosen by Boston Whaler or at the Boston Whaler factory. The purchaser should

notify Boston Whaler of any boat being repaired by an authorized Boston Whaler dealer which has been at the

dealership for fifteen (15) days, or of any claimed defect which was not corrected after one repair attempt.

“THE MISSION OF BOSTON WHALER IS TO PROVIDE CONSUMERS WITH THE

SAFEST, HIGHEST QUALITY, MOST DURABLE BOATS IN THE WORLD”.

We are dedicated to creating a superior product providing you with comfort, performance, safety and dependability. All

of our boats comply with the safety standards set by the United States Coast Guard and are designed, engineered and

Construction Standards

Hull Identifcation 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.

GENERAL

FUEL,

The 320 Outrage is equipped with a gaso-

line fuel system. Please take time to read

and understand all the fuel related infor-

mation and warnings in the engine owner’s

packet. The diagrams below show the lo-

cation of the fuel fill, routing of fuel supply hose and the

location of the fuel tank vent.

Fuel Tank

The 320 Outrage comes with 2-150 Gal. (568L)

aluminum fuel tanks. The tanks are located under

the aft section of the cockpit. Access to the fuel

level senders for each tank is through a plate on

the aft section of the cockpit floor.

Fuel Fill

The 320 Outrage has fuel fills for each tank, located

on the port/starboard sides amidship on the gunwales,

each is marked “GAS”, and is opened by use of a

special key that is included with the owner’s manual

packet. Follow the engine manufacturer’s recommen-

dation for the types of fuel to use.

CAUTION

Leaking fuel is a fire and explosion hazard, inspect the

system regularly. Examine fuel tanks and exposed lines

for leaks and corrosion.

DANGER

Check for leaks in tubing, connections and hoses. Cor-

rect the cause of the leaks and ventilate the area to

insure that no fumes remain, prior to energizing any

electrical equipment and/or starting the engines.

CAUTION

Use of improper gasolines can damage your engine se-

riously. Engine damage resulting from use of improper

gasoline is considered misuse of engine and will void

the warranty. Follow engine manufacturer’s recommen-

dations regarding the types of fuel and oil to use.

CAUTION

Oil and fuel spills can be dangerous and can subject

offenders to severe penalties

NOTICE

Remove portable tanks from boat and fill from shore.

When fueling is complete, secure tanks to deck with

straps provided.

DANGER

Static electricity can ignite gasoline vapors causing

serious injury/death and/or destruction of property.

Tank Selection

There are a pair of 3-way gasoline valves that con-

trol the flow of fuel to the engines. The fuel system

is designed to have the port engine supplied by the

port fuel tank and the starboard engine by the star-

board tank. The valves can be used so both engines

can be supplied by either tank. (If both engines will

be run from one fuel tank, the boat will eventually

list to the opposite side of the tank being used). The

valves have PORT, STARBOARD, OFF clearly

marked on the perimeter of each valve. Turn the valve

handles to the desired position for the appropriate

tank. Be sure to always check the level of each fuel

tank and position of fuel valves to prevent the boat

from becoming unbalanced while underway. The tank

selector gasoline valves are located on the aft wall

of the stern foldaway seat.

Primer Bulb (Optional)

If equipped, a pair of primer bulbs can be accessed

under the port and starboard sides of the motorwell

hatch. The primer bulbs are used to draw fuel from

the tank to the engine, usually after the fuel has been

drained from the entire system. There are also in-

structions regarding proper use of the primer bulb in

the engine manufacturers handbook.

EMPTY TANK:

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

problems 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 prevent 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

NOTICE

Fuel gauge only reads accurately when boat is level (not

underway).

Remote Oil Tank Location

(sterndeck has been removed)

Optional engine oil supply, 2-3 Gal. (11.3L)

The 320 Outrage may be equipped with a remote oil

system. This system consists of two 3-Gal.(11.3L)

reservoir tanks and hoses which contain and meter

lubricating oil to the engine(s). The tanks have an

external fill located on the aft side of the cockpit tran-

som wall. Access to the tanks is 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

abrasions and cracks and hose clamps for proper

tightness. The tank should not be exposed to ultra-

violet light, rain or seawater for extended periods of

time.

Remote Oil System (Optional)

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.

• 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.

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 no-

tice a loss in power, consult a professional tank cleaning

contractor regarding this procedure and proper disposal

of residue and water.

Section 3 - Fuel System

320 Outrage-Owner’s Manual

• Secure the fill cap tightly.

• Portable tanks should only be filled while on the

ground; never on-board the boat.

REFER TO THE “Do’s and Don’ts At The Gas Pump”

DVD IN YOUR OWNER’S MANUAL PACKET FOR more

information.

Ethanol is an oxygenated hydrocarbon compound that

has a high octane rating and therefore is useful in in-

creasing the octane level of unleaded gasoline.

The fuel-system components of your Mercury engine(s)

have been tested to perform with the maximum level of

ethanol-blended gasoline (10% ethanol) currently al-

lowed by the EPA in the United States.

Special precautions should be considered with the use

of fuel containing ethanol in your system. Fuels with etha-

nol 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 opera-

tional problems or safety issues such as clogged filters,

leaks or engine damage.

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.

Example of Phase Separation

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

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.

Condensation

Upper Phase (water+fuel+ethanol)

Lower Phase (water+ethanol)

Fuel Inlet to Engine

Ethanol-Blended Fuel

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.
