You come across as a fine young man Carson and a passionate boater. As a fellow Boston Whaler lover, I agree with your analysis. I just bought a used 2018 Montauk 170 (60th anniversary model). I can't wait to unwrap her this spring. I currently have a Montauk 150 that I will be selling in another month and I'm hoping the 170 will provide a big upgrade in fishing and seakeeping ability. If, as I suspect - it "punches above its weight" as much as the 150 does - I'm gonna be one happy guy. Built in 25-gal gas tank provides waaay more range. Looks like you're in Marblehead - the most nautical city in the US! Keep up the good work.

Hi Tim! Thank you so much for your comment. Your words were very kind I appreciate them very much. I’m sure you’ll have a great time this season with your 2018 170 Montauk. That’s one of my favorite boats that you can buy today, Whaler did an amazing job engineering that vessel. You’re going to have a great season! My first newer Whaler was a 150 Montauk and I absolutely enjoyed it. The 170 is a great upgrade. Keep me updated as your season progresses! :) and yes marblehead is a great place for Whalers!! Cheers!

Got the SS and find it a great boat. We just use it for playing around and skiing with the Grandkids. Does a good job of pulling my 20yo grandson around on a salon, though he prefers our families Tige 😀. All that room in the back is nice to have. Two fixable issues. One is that there should have been a bilge pump. I am used to Whalers being self-bailing and never thought about this when I was buying the boat. Another concerns the problems with mounting a trolling motor as I am not handy with tools and this requires some custom cutting and attaching.

This video is excellent! I’m considering a 170 Montauk. Given the rails on the front and sides (love the rails), how do you get into it if pushing off from a beach? I grew up with other boats that didn’t have the rails. Sorry if I’m overthinking it but would welcome your perspective as you clearly know Whalers. Thank you.

I’ll stick to the montauk. I love that hull design. I own a 1966 13 whaler and it’s just a smaller version of the montauk. I want an older montauk to restore just like my little 13. I posted a video on my channel about the process of painting with awlcraft 2000

FYI Carson, the 170SS is the exact same hull as the 170 Dauntless. Whaler actually borrowed the Dauntless hull during the short run of the 170SS. Now they don't make either one.

The difference in the two can definitely be seen in the drafting depths. In the new 160 you can get away with 6 inch depths which make it a really good flats boat. You can get away with drafting a ft. in the Montauk but it’s clearly better geared to handle open coastal water. For somebody on the gulf coast the SS is one of the best all around bay boats where the Montauk is one of the best designed all around boats.

Key West’s are great and all but I’m just not a fan of the quality in the lower end models. It’s great that they use Yamaha, as well as don’t use wood, but they really just don’t do it for me. I think Scout would be a more comparable, better made alternative. Cheers
