I've been looking for a good center console in the 20' range, but have expanded my requirements considerably. I do quite a bit of inshore striper fishing and occasionally venture about 20 miles out. This year I'll be happy to get a nice in shore boat. I've seen you mention the Whaler Montauk and I've seen a few for sale locally at decent prices (I Think). There's a 79 with a 79 100 horse Evinrude for $4500.00, and there's a 85 with a 99 90 horse Merc for $9500.00 and several in between these. I've heard you get some pounding from these boats, is it pretty mild? How do they handle some 4 footers with chop? Any info greatly appreciated. Thanks!
