Classic Boston Whaler - 17ft (1974 Katama)
1996 (out of the box in 98) 75HP Mercury, w/tilt and trim.
Motor just serviced; carbs have just been rebuilt and all fuel lines replaced.
Brushes replaced in starter, and lower unit has been gone through.
2000 Rolls Axle L.C. all aluminum trailer
Comes with custom made console, seat and motor cover, "Stiffy" push pole and more.
Boat and motor comes with all original manuals/paperwork.
I just had this boat appraised by a retired employee of Boston Whaler, and he has been restoring Whalers for 30+ years.
He said that he has never seen a used Whaler in this good of condition that has not been restored, valuing it at: $8-10,000
I'm willing to sell for less. You must see to appreciate it. These pictures do not do it justice. Come check it out and make an offer.
I bought this boat 12 years ago from the original owner.The only reason I am selling this boat is because I am wheelchair bound and due to declining strength, I am no longer able to take it out without being dependent on someone to help me.

Sweet boat! Kinda reminds me of my first Whaler, 'Loolee3' Katama...man oh man did I love that boat, and I'm fortunate that her next owner is my local friend Steve/17 Bodega, who also got rid of the clumsy starboard-side console. Good luck with your sale, Gary.

I just sold it for 7,000. I hated to, but I really had no choice. Thanks, Tony

No offense, but I don't think that is a Katama. More like a Montauk. The console on a Katama is side mounted,if memory serves me correctly, and it has completely different seat. However, it is one nice looking boat.

LOL, It was a Katama, I personally changed out the console when I bought it 12 years ago.

OH yeah, and the seat was factory, not changed out...I bought this bought from original owner. I hope that clears things up for you, TWhaler.
