OWELY 370 BOAT DRIVER

The recommended maximum power for the 370 is 20hp. The kind of line you want and where you want it. Here a taught line is stretched on top of the tubes from quarter to quarter via the bow, supported by frequent mounts. Typically the grab lines are loops hanging over the side, but not on the Whaly. It also gives them a stronger feeling of security than most comparable RIBs. Whaly even provides drink holders for the passengers. Battery and fuel tank live in the thwart-lockers while the lidded anchor well is big enough to take extra gear as well as the anchor cable. Tenders of this size generally have gear scattered throughout but the 370 is a model of neatness. This is exactly the case as with tiller steered boats, and is a perfectly acceptable simplification bearing in mind the basic tender role. The console has room for fishing electronics, but in its basic form it does not have as much as a rev counter or trim gauge. And, putting weight a bit closer to the centre line, it aids balance. It is more of an off-centre than side console, since it has to fit within the side benches, but it still provides the maximum of rail access for anglers.

The review wheel-steered 370 has two of these drop-ins one provides the thwart-locker the driver sits on, another the combined partial thwart-console.

The side chambers have vertical grooves to accept them. They feature full length buoyant side chamber-benches for maximum passenger numbers with tiller control, simply convertible to wheel steering with drop-in units. Within its small footprint it has the European certified (Whalys are built in the Netherlands) carrying capacity of eight persons or 550 kilos.ДЄll the Whalys are built to suit fitting out as tiller steered or side console wheel control. It also renders it near immune to damage from vigorous encounters with jetties. Its yielding, slippery nature makes it kind to unskilled contact with the mother shipвЂ™s hull. This material has many attractive qualities for a tender.
