Re: Which whaaler to get?
It is not much of a debate for me. I have a 87' Outrage and love it. I have never considered a new one. The old ones work great, hold their value and with the money you save you can trick it out anyway you want. Before I found my Outrage I was looking for a Montauk style 17 footer. I like the Outrage because it has a 40 gallon interior tank, lots of wood, can handle a 150hp, and can take a pretty good wave hit. It is real stable and boy is it fun. Like all Whalers, it has a versatile platform for lakes/bays/ocean and fishing/skiing/working/wave hopping.
