Author	Topic:   Montauk Center Console
spotsnspecks	posted 08-30-2011 08:40 PM ET (US)         Looking for a center console for a 1981 Montauk if anyone has one from that era. Thanks

Plus some fiberglass shops post there new consoles also. Another person to try is Joe Orlando's Fiberglass, 281-334-2902. He is in Kemah, Tx. I had another number for a gentleman by the name of Paul Graham in Houston. His number is 409-771-6536. He is in galveston, tx. I was going to buy a used super console a couple of years back, but never pulled the trigger. He sell the mid eighties style console blank and already outfitted ready to go. I hope this helps.

lizard	posted 08-31-2011 11:48 AM ET (US)             I am not sure that I would put a super console in a Montauk, there is so little free room to begin with.
BigDaddyWhaler	posted 08-31-2011 12:08 PM ET (US)             I was not mentioning he put a super console in a montauk. Paul had one for sale. He has a mold for the mid eighties montauk console and early '90 outrage console. He gets alot of customers changing from super consoles to the smaller ones. Thanks.
andrey320	posted 08-31-2011 04:19 PM ET (US)             If you don't find a BW console, I highly recommend a Carolina Skiff one. I got a medium one for my Dauntless 15 and couldn't be happier with the result! It's got a built in seat and is much smaller than a BW one.
spotsnspecks	posted 08-31-2011 06:40 PM ET (US)             Wow thanks Bigshot and Big Daddy and everyone. I am now in Houston so that makes it real easy for me to get to Kemah. Once again great info!
BigDaddyWhaler	posted 08-31-2011 11:47 PM ET (US)             I've never been to either shop and have seen the new consoles in person. I've only seen pics of the blank consoles. Please reply after checking them out. Thanks.
Jeff	posted 09-01-2011 10:56 AM ET (US)             Here is the console I believe Joe Orlando sells. As you can see it is close to be not exactly the same as an OEM one do to the flares at the base. He may be able to remove those. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v427/jeff_rohlfing/Misc%20Whaler/ tempconsole.jpg He also has one based on the 1991 and later classic console used on the Outrages.
pgraham	posted 09-01-2011 10:21 PM ET (US)             Angel's Marine makes the early 90's era Montauk console, he lays them up thick. Located in Dickenson Tx. He specializes in Whaler restoration, does exellent fiberglass and gell coat and also has a full custom aluminum fab shop. He's cheaper the Orlando's
BigDaddyWhaler	posted 09-01-2011 11:50 PM ET (US)             Please bare with me but I don't post pictures often so this may take awhile. Here are pictures of the console by Paul Graham. http://s466.photobucket.com/albums/rr28/BigDaddyWhaler/ Montauk%20Console/
