Re: Small Hose from Engine Now Pumping Water

Re: Whaler Central

I logged into Whaler Central on New Years Day and saw Joe’s retirement message. Now it is completely off-line. I joined this forum to continue access to knowledgeable classic Whaler owners.

The Yamaha 90-HP two-stroke engine was the perfect-power and perfect-weight engine for the classic Montauk 17. The second best engine is...
