MONTAUK 17 Trailer
Posted: Mon Apr 15, 2019 4:46 pm
I have a 1986 Montauk 17. The trailer I have for it seems like it is a 15-foot boat. I want to get a new trailer with proper fit.
A 2016 Boston Whaler trailer made by Karavan for a 17-foot boat has popped up for sale locally.
Would I be able to simply drive my 1986 MONTAUK 17 onto the 2016 trailer that was set up from the factory for a different boat?
Will the differences between the two hulls prevent a proper fit with the bunks?
My 1986 MONTAUK 17 boat came a trailer with rollers, and the Karavan trailer from the factory setup for a 2016 17-footer does not have rollers; it only has bunks.
I searched online to see if there was much hull difference that would prevent that trailer working well, but can't find much.
