Apologies for the one-year-late update [on the ultimate new boat canvas bought for the 17-foot restored hull that has been the topic of this thread]. I purchased a Mills Bimini Top. Now more than a year later, the Mills Bimini top has been great. I chose the version that stows in front of the bow ra...

Alibertucci---Thanks very much.

ART--Thank you. I really appreciate the detailed information.

I am currently installing a Carver stainless steel frame Bimini on my Montauk 17.... This sounds exactly like what I am looking for. Please share pictures of the installation when finished. What are the dimensioned of the Carver Bimini you are using? Thet size data from the Carver website is confus...

Thanks for the tip. I will have to think it through a bit before I pull off the current decals.

The hull is painted with AWLCRAFT; will the eraser wheel cause a problem?

Will do, thanks Phil.

[The two-tone blue-white color scheme is] certainly not a look I had ever seen before on a Whaler. The scheme has really grown on me, especially in person. When it got up to Massachusetts, the guys at the boat lift and marina where there are a lot of old Montauks, didn’t really mention the colors; t...

Good eyes. The logo seems to be both too small and too far back. Full disclosure: I had nothing to do with any of the modifications, colors, or rub rail choices. I just luckily stumbled upon the boat for sale the way it is. The boat just got up to Massachusetts last Friday, and before that I had onl...

PHIL T--Thanks for the help with pictures and the great information--it is much appreciated.

I was lucky enough to find pretty much exactly what I was looking for: a restored 1985 Montauk 17 without an engine. image0.jpeg image1.jpeg image2.jpeg image3.jpeg image4.jpeg image5.jpeg image6.jpeg image7.jpeg We have owned an 1987 Outrage 22 since new, and I am familiar with Boston Whaler boats....

Well I was able to find a really nice restored classic Montauk 17 with no engine so I will have to start a new thread with the pics and questions! Jim, I have several general different category questions from Bimini top options to rigging/prop choices for a Honda BF90, is it best to just keep it all...

Thanks again Jim, I very much appreciate your knowledge on this! - Steve

Thank you Jim, I had not really considered that the ride would be a concern, but obviously it makes quite a bit of sense given the flat-looking [hull] design that was eventually changed.

I guess I’m back to the hunt for a restored or restorable classic Montauk hull.

Appreciate your thoughts.--Steve

What would a good rib-side Outrage hull be worth in Massachusetts?
