Type of Boston Whaler?

Not sure how to word this... but I am trying to find out the model of a Boston Whaler I have seen. It is small - probably the smallest boat I have seen on the great lakes, but it also seems able to fit 4 or so comfortably. The distinctive thing I have noticed about it is its size. And that it is a Boston Whaler. I can also say it does not look brand new nor is it the oldest.

Hmmm - if you can help - a picture would be great... and I will certainly be appreciative!Type of Boston Whaler?
You're looking at the "Boston Whaler 13' sport, or the 15' sport, they have been making the 13' for almost 50 years, 1958-2008, the 15' sport has been in production for 31 years since 1976. The 13' max H.P. is a 40 HP, the 15' max. H.P. is 70 HP, and the foam is "closed cell" floatation so it can't get water logged too easily, these hull's break ice, and will NOT sink even when sawed in half, they run them over with a truck, hull's don't crack, they even fired over 2000 rounds of machine gun fire at one, and ithen towed it back, still did'nt sink.
Go to the Boston Whaler website. Google it.Type of Boston Whaler?
The older Boston whaler claim to fame is they wont sink but they will fill with water in the foam an can weigh a ton so make sure it's not water lodged or you will be very unhappy ???Look on http://www.boattraderonline.com/ there are always some for sale%26gt;%26gt;??
