The influence of Bose-Einstein correlations on the determination of the mass
of the W boson in e+e- -> WW -> 4jet events at LEP2 energies is studied, using
a global event weighting method. We find that it is possible to keep the
systematic error on the W mass from this source below 20 MeV, if suitable
precautions are taken in the experimental analysis.
