Here is the parts diagram for the 2000 Dauntless 200. http://bostonwhaler.com.s3.amazonaws.com/resources/200-Dauntless-Final-Assembly-2010.pdf If through bolted, with one hand, take a phillips screw driver for the front and use plyers, socket, vice grips et al for the back side. Does this not line u...

Phil T

In looking at the drawings at Bostonwhaler.com for your year and model, I would suggest inside the splashwell access panel. A fuel bulb should be installed between the filter and engine. (EDIT) If the boat has a Verado engine, I would double check with a certified Verado service manager if a separat...

This part has a frequent failure rate due to age and fatigue.

I would replace the nylon part with a stainless bimini fitting. Check the rail diameter.

I shared with Bill what I found.

From the inside of the transom (not the splashwell) to the rear edge of the RPS foot is 48 3/4".

The distance between the RPS foot and the console is 18".

Phil T

There are off-the-shelf above-deck fuel tank models with a remote sender fuel gauge. Above-deck tanks have sight gauges.

One could modify the above deck tank or install a below deck tank and install a fill and vent. Either way it is a fair amount of work.

You might consider leaving it as is.

Phil T

Check with the Parts department of your preferred Whaler dealer.

Note - Have them double check to ensure they fit your year of the Montauk 210. I recall there were changes in 2017/8.

Ben -

All you need to do is remove the screws, remove the rail and then reinsert the screws with a dab of marine [url]sealant[/url], not adhesive on the top of the threads, under the head.

Phil T

There are two off-the-shelf alternatives. The OEM holder is mounted flush to the blocks so you may need to modify the holder below to match the alignment of the existing holders. https://www.westmarine.com/buy/blacktip--one-piece-polypropylene-rod-holder--13090881?recordNum=13 https://www.westmarine...

Archie--you can also investigate bronze through-hull fittings. Note there may be conflicts with the transom angles preventing a metal through-hull fitting from siting flush with the surface. Regardless of which material you select, I would seal the drain holes with epoxy to prevent any errant moistu...

The days of small Boston Whaler dealers is over. Consolidation is king and the everyday buyer takes it in the chin. In looking at Boston Whaler's new models, it is clear, profit is in the larger boats. With the six or 7 digit price, the factory wants dealers that can support this level of clientele,...

Phil T

The 1985 catalog lists the Frontier 25's fuel tank as 140 gallons, same as the Guardian 25. The measurements would be identical to the large tank option on the Outrage 25. Drawings and dimensions of Outrage/Revenge fuel tanks have not been released by Whaler, CPD, or FMT. Only owners who did custom ...

Phil T

Boston Whaler does not discount the MSRP of the standard boat configuration. Incentives tend to be on accessories and/or dealer option/services and not reduction on the MSRP. Boston Whaler does not build inventory. When you visit the dealer, your purchase is a factory order with a lead time of sever...

Phil T

My first boat was used. I just went and built a new 2019 model with the options you listed and the MSRP is $28,000, so the selling dealer is WAY too high. https://www.bostonwhaler.com/build-your-whaler/?model=150-montauk I would not spend $25,000 when there are many relatively-new 150 Montauk boat's...

It is important to note there are two different designs with the same model name. To distinguish them we refer to their models as:

Outrage 17 I (1990-1995)
Outrage 17 II (1996-1999)

While both are great, they are completely different designs.

If you are referring to the two aft quarter seats, you can get replacements through Anderson's. OEM quality.

If you are reaching the same WOT engine speed, I would proffer the following variables are affecting performance:

- sea state
- wind
- current
- air temp
- relative humidity
- strainer
- boat weight (daughter growing, fuel load, gear etc.)

I agree with Jim, uncured resin escaping.

You definitely want to use a steering wheel puller tool. After installing the tool and tightening, a wrap on the center bolt with a hammer often provides the shock to break it free of the shaft. Tool example: http://continuouswave.com/whaler/reference/images/teleflex/3-gearPuller600x450.jpg Fig. 1. ...

Having experienced heavy fog on the Maine coast, I see there are two important elements. You need to know where you are. This is obtained with radar or GPS. You need to know where everyone else is. This is obtained via radar and to some degree AIS. In my local waters in Casco Bay, Maine, some local ...

On 2 of my 3 boat trailers I have modified the tongues to allow the trailer to set further down the ramp or keep the tow vehicle from making contact with the salt water. On my Royal branded galvanized trailer I purchased a stock tongue that was longer at a local trailer supply house. I removed the e...

Phil T

The stowing of the mast and not using the GPS was stupid. Transiting waters in darkness without all navigation lights working is stupid. Transiting waters with large commercial traffic in dense fog without AIS and/or radar is asking for it. The pilot deserves to loose his certificate. What a maroon!

While the original Igloo Marine 86-quart cooler is not available, the current 94-quart model is what you are looking for. It has the same width and length. The lid is taller, hence the volume increase. If you have rod holder cushions, install the new cooler with the hinges facing forward so that ope...

I presume you have already inspected the entire fuel supply system from the draw tube to the engine fuel filter, replacing all hoses, clamps, primer bulbs, water separator filter and verified the engine (2-stroke or EFI) is able to reach WOT throttle?

Boston Whaler refers to the console roll-up door as a Tambor door. Here is a response from Boston Whaler that was posted to a separate thread on the same topic in 2014: Unfortunately, the manufacturer that had originally produced the roll up door on the console of the 19 II Outrage has since gone ou...

The subject of older 13-footers needing a 15-inch-shaft engine has been discussed countless times. If you do not select a short shaft (15-inch) then a long shaft (20-inch) will require you either install a bracket or install an insert to fill in the notch. There are several options, including: Trans...

SV may be describing the sea state using terms that others would not use.

The word "wave" can sometimes be used to describe a "swell".

Keep in mind the Whaler testing is not easy to replicate.

Nick - Yes, the Outrage 18 has a maximum hp rating of 150. Keep in mind the Guardian 18 is a bit heavier.

While I know there are members with a Outrage 18's with 115hp off California I think there will be moments when you will want the torque/displacement of a 150hp.

Just one person's opinion.

Phil T

Boat prices in CA are a bit over the top. The Guardian 18 is a bit underpowered. The shipping makes it totally impractical.

I know a Outrage 17 II owner in Hawaii (not sure which island) and he loves his.

Phil T

Don't be upset if they say no.

If you are looking for OEM, skip the DIY and order cushions from the only ones who have the OEM materials and craftsmanship, Anderson's.

Derigging at the console is the prevailing way. You can shift the console forward rather than remove it from the boat.

I used the same diameter screw, just added length. #14 (1/4") flat head stainless screws with a fender washer on the top for a clean look.

Phil T

While the winch cable pulls the boat tight, another important piece of hardware is the bow stop and its position in relation to the bow eye. The bow roller should be touching the top of the bow eye. When the boat is winched, if the bow wanted to move up, the eye would be blocked by the roller. On ol...

Remember that propeller characteristics are not universal across brands and models.

I think you need a different propeller.

I think you may be going a bit too heavy handed. If the backing material is new and adhered to to the deck skin, no special measures are necessary. On my Montauk I built 6" risers based on the design by Finnegan, aka, LHG using composite lumber. I screwed the first blocks into the floor using t...

The tank diagram orientation is upper right is the stern, lower left is the bow. The vent hose is the smaller one that connects to the middle of the tank. Note item 11, the vent flap in the fitting. The integrated vent is due in part to EPA regs as well as economics. Every boat has some "isim's...

Phil T

This is not unheard of for several models. I don't recall the Montauk 170 II having it though. Typically the culprit is the attitude of the boat is resulting in blocking the vent. I would take the advice and have weight placed in the bow. Also take a look at the vent. It could be clogged or slightly...

Phil T

Typically, a failure of the fastening of the RPS or the console to the deck of a 16'7 or 17' hull is due to either a) the plywood backing material rotting as a result of moisture due to the lack of, or failure of, the marine sealant or 2) shear forces that exceed the rating of the fastener and subst...
