Re: Dauntless 15 Hull Weight Variation
There is really no way to be certain what any one particular hull weighs at the present time. I don't think any get lighter with age. True, hulls with foam tend to get heavier not lighter. I will weigh the hull. Not knowing true hull weight for sure from the factory, floating the boat rigged is goi...

Re: Dauntless 15 Hull Weight Variation
Since the boat has no engine on it now, it will be difficult to pre-judge how the E-TEC 320-lbs engine will affect the static trim. My guess: the 1.29-liter three-cylinder E-TEC 75 at 320-lbs may be too heavy. Consider as lighter engine choices the E-TEC 60-HP 0.86-liter two-cylinder engine at 240-...

To be most accurate I would think you would want to note the other differences such as L.O.A., Beam, Draft, etc.

Re: Dauntless 15 Hull Weight Variation
I have a recently acquired 1994 Dauntless 15 project boat without engine and my preference is to re-power with an E-TEC 75 at 320-lbs. I want to get pertinent info on the Dauntless 15 to help determine what I may or may not need to do to layout and rig the boat so not to be too stern heavy.

Re: Dauntless 15 Hull Weight Variation
Thank you for the info. I originally referenced the CW epoch and the Dauntless 15 reflected that 1993-1998 850lbs hull weight across all model years.

Dauntless 15 Hull Weight Variation
[Separated from another discussion on different topics--jimh] [Based on something read] the DAUNTLESS 15 was [manufactured] from 1994 to 1998. The hull weight was listed for [1994 to 1995--always use four digits for years] as 730-lbs and for [1996 to 1998] as 850-lbs. [Regarding the change in the li...

Re: Outboard Engines: Rebuild or Buy New
I have had 2 strokes the past 15 years. They smoked at first start-up, but, while running the rest of day and starting and stopping, there is no noticeable smoke. They are louder all the time while running than an E-TEC or four-stroke and burn more fuel, but they are easier and cheaper to maintain.

Re: Outboard Engines: Rebuild or Buy New
My recommendation would be an ETEC 150, the weight is as low as 418lbs for a 1st Gen, the twin 70's are closer to 500lbs. On the ETEC go 2008 and above as that is the year when the fuel injectors were standardized. There is seller on ebay offering for ETEC 150's for approx $7,500 with a 1yr powerhea...

Re: E-TEC 75 Project
Once I get the cowls painted and pretty, I'll assemble and put on the computer and pull codes and printable history.
Sounds like a good plan.

Re: E-TEC 75 Project
Nice pick-up at that price, it was well worth it just for the core. Sounds like you might have a servicable E-TEC. What year is the E-TEC? Since this is a smart motor I would definitely recommend that you have your local E-TEC authorized shop pull the history and scan for any codes.

Re: 1995 Boston Whaler Outrage/Guardian 17
Actually 95 17 Justice exists based on 96 outrage as weird as it sounds. I know this because I was chasing one few years ago from VA DNR and called Chuck from Whaler customer service to clarify things. Very first few dozen hulls of new redesigned 17 outrage went to them to do some testing before it...

Boat you have is actually 17 justice and Virginia DNR is first recipient of this hull . I just sold my 2001 17 justice and boat interior is slightly different than 17 outrage that I also used to own. I wouldnt install full bow rail on that hull but mid hull section one to follow original one. You p...

1995 Boston Whaler OUTRAGE or GUARDIAN 17
I recently purchased a 1995 Boston Whaler OUTRAGE or GUARDIAN 17 from the Virginia DNR. The hull is stripped, so I am planning to add: --a new rub rail, --center console, --bow rail, and --a console seat. I could use some help from a Outrage 17 owner for some suggestion and measurements. Any input w...
