Better Than Boston Whaler? The Metan Classic Collection Start to Finish Build Can you build a better Boston Whaler? Metan Marine has been the recognized leader in Boston Whaler restorations for nearly 30 years, serving clients nationally and internationally. What You'll See in This Video: 0:17 • Intro to restoration models 2:00 • Line up of Metan Classic Collection models 5:25 • Fiberglass lamination using vacuum infusion 10:59 • Features of the lamination process 16:03 • Assembly of the vessel 10 years ago, owner Mike Borrelli and his team took on a new challenge — building their own line of classic boats from the ground up.The Metan Classic Collection replicates the iconic lines of the 1960s and 1970s Boston Whalers, but they're built entirely different. Instead of the original Whaler construction, every Metan Classic is built using state-of-the-art vacuum infusion lamination with high-quality composite core materials. The result is a hull that's stronger, lighter, and more durable than the original — a classic look with modern engineering.In this video, we walk through the complete start-to-finish build process of the Metan Classic Collection 17-foot models: • The Davenport — a replica of the classic Boston Whaler Montauk • The Manhasset — a replica of the 1960s Boston Whaler SakonnetFrom vacuum-infused lamination and composite core construction to custom woodwork finished with high-gloss, long-lasting wood finishes, every detail is covered. The custom metal work is fabricated by Gary Wilson — one of the best metal fabricators in the industry with over 40 years of experience. The entire build is led by Mike Borrelli, owner of Metan Marine, with over 30 years of fiberglass repair and custom boat building expertise.This isn't a restoration. This is how you build a better classic boat from scratch. ⚓ Contact Metan Marine: Visit us: metanmarine.com Call: 781-733-5387 Email: [email protected] #bostonwhaler #MetanClassicCollection #BoatBuilding #VacuumInfusion #ClassicBoats #BoatRestoration #MetanMarine #Davenport #Manhasset #CustomBoatBuild
