The relationship between Wm. J. Mills & Co. and Boston Whaler® began as a personal friendship between William J. Mills II (Bill) and Dick Fisher, the original founder of The Boston Whaler Company. Dick, famous as a perfectionist, needed a canvas company as dedicated to quality as he was. On that basis, a partnership was born.
Until Boston Whaler was sold in 1997, Wm. J. Mills & Co. was the sole supplier of canvas accessories for all Whaler® models and we still supply those classic designs worldwide.
Over the years,we have designed specialized procedures and hardware for installing our Whaler® canvas parts, including struts, straps, hinges, and clips. Some of our fabricating equipment was developed specifically for building Whaler® canvas accessories. |
