PROJECT 42
This single owner, immaculate, freshwater, low hour (< 250) and completely original Montauk was located in northern Vermont. This boat was purchased brand new from a BW dealer in North Hero, Vermont and used exclusively on Lake Champlain. She has never seen saltwater or spent a night in the water and always stored inside a garage on her original EZ Loader trailer. She is equipped with her original 1986 Yamaha 115hp V-4 two-stroke, Precision-Blend, electric start/choke outboard with power tilt/trim. The Yamaha V-4s are known as extremely reliable motors and highly desirable for the classic 17’ hull due to their very high power/weight ratio. The V4s have a reputation as one of Yamaha’s best outboards ever produced.
The most recognizable and iconic model Boston Whaler ever produced is probably the 17’ Montauk. This highly desirable 17’ hull, paired with a center console, provides a platform ideal for inshore or offshore fishing while affording ample interior room to cruise with the family or for watersports.
The 17’ Montauk came equipped standard with 10” side railings, full bow railing, reversible pilot seat with bottom cushion, combination bow light/chock assembly and stainless steel pole stern light.
This particular Montauk was optioned through Whaler with the 72qt igloo cooler with cushion forward of the console, tan Boston Whaler Battery box, and the classic scarlet red, large “Whaler” hull decals. She has a brand new full mooring/trailer cover as well. The original heavy duty EZ Loader trailer is in excellent original condition with stainless steel hardware, full keel rollers and bunks. This Montauk is a rare find in this condition, absolutely perfect, turnkey and ready to be enjoyed.
