To my utter surprise, sitting in front of the Costco in Honolulu was a 2012 Whaler 17 Super Sport With a Merc 90 4 stroke.
Costco price was $24,104.17, and you get a $500 Costco Cash Card after 60 days!
Not bad, considering it had to be shipped way out here!

That is strange, I think that's the same price that they have at my CostCo in Charleston SC.

That's because they shipped it all the way to Charleston SC.....

So, you're saying it costs the same no matter whether they ship it to SC or HI?

That is what blows my mind. They must ship those boats all the way out here. Kinda like gas. It's $4.29 here ($4.89 on Maui). When I left San Francisco, it was $4.23. Shipped all the way out to this tiny island for the same price?
And I ran I to a guy yesterday on the Morth Shore in Haleiwa Harbor. He had a 1988 18 Outrage painted inside and out with white Awlgrip. He had a 140 Suzuki. The paint job looked very nice. Looked line a 1991 hull from afar. Then I noticed the rail fittings. Then smaller console.
Poking around the harbor, I found a rib sided 21, a blue hull 16/17, and an imitation 17 Montauk. Exact outer hull, totally different inner hull. All wrong.
The local Whaler dealer had the 17 Montauk on a trailer, fishing package and a 90 Merc 4S for $29,269, a 19 Montauk w/fishing package and 115 Merc on a galv trailer for $35,891, and a 21 Montauk w/ fishing package and 150 Merc for $51,995.
Each purchase gets a Costco $500 gift card.
