Whaler is a great boat but speaking from experience as a fisherman Mercury outboard is an unreliable junk. They would sell more if they have other outboard motor option. I prefer Yamaha
407Khmer I have been boating for over fifty years. My hobby is boats. Mercury was always the “paint it purple” motor and you are right, they were Never a good choice. After Brunswick (Bowling Balls etc.) bought Mercury by mistake and realized nobody wanted them, they bought Whaler hoping the association would help Mercury but people still ordered Yamahas with their new Whalers. Then they started putting Mercury’s on all Whalers at the factory and sales plummeted! In those early days of Whaler/Merc, I thought Merc was going to take Whaler down the rabbit hole. But after several years of accepting things had to change, Brunswick FINALLY fixed Mercury’s. The little ones are still made in China and are marginal at best but the ones made in America are absolutely first class! GlennFHoward

There are a lot of good boats being made and speaking from experience, Whalers are the absolute best!
I agree, it's a 3 way tie between Whaler, Freeman, yellow fin. But that beauty costs the price of a house 🏠 🙄
