Description

I challenge anyone to find a 1998 whaler in better condition. The boat has been serviced and is ready to play. Selling her is a last minute decision, as I had planned on putting her in her slip up until a month ago when I looked at all the traveling I had to do this summer for work. When I decided to get a boat in 2010, I spent a year researching and looking at over 50 different Outrages for sale, until I found this gem of a boat in Montana on a freshwater lake. When you are comparing this boat to others, please consider all the years of saltwater exposures the others suffered through and has built up in their engines. When we replaced the starboard engines' power head in 2013, there was ZERO salt build up in the cooling channels of the bad head. I was amazed how clean they were.

1998 Boston Whaler Outrage center console. Boat looks like new. Everyone is astonished when they find out it is a '98.

The boat has had 2 owners. The first owner had the boat in Montana, yes Montana, and used it on the freshwater Flathead Lake until 2011 when I purchased it, and shipped it to New Jersey. The boat is super clean as it avoided the corrosive salt water exposure for all those years and had a super pampered life in Montana. The first owner did not skimp on any of the accessories and was extremely meticulous with his upkeep, servicing and paper work. He forwarded me all the service records, manuals, installation instructions for everything on the boat and I will forward them to the new owner excluding the service records as I do not save them. He even had the boat detailed every spring as part of its servicing.

Dual 98' Yamaha 225 saltwater series, 2-stroke outboards with low hours. 3-Bladed stainless-steel propellers. Both engines have been rebuilt. Port engine power head was replaced in '2010 with a rebuild unit and has around 150 hours on it. It has new: spark plugs, thermostats, zinc anodes, fuel/water separator, and impeller. Starboard engine had power head replaced with a brand new crated power head in 2013 with new spark plugs, fuel/water separator, and zinc anodes. Thermostats and impeller replaced 2015. Engine has around 50 hours on new head. (Engine hours are approximate, since power head replacements, boat does not have engine hour meters) Both engines run strong with plenty of power to get you on plane and out to where the fish are biting or a day of tubing.

Newer electronics package '2011 - ICOM IC-M504 VHF Marine Transceiver, Raymarine C-120 Series electronics package: C120 multifunctional display with, 50 mile radar, DSM50 1,000 foot depth and fish finder, SR50 weather and Serius radio and weather broadcasts module, GPS module for location and plotting courses. C-120 monitor and VHF radio protected in a custom stainless steel lockable T-top enclosure. Dual brand AM/FM stereo w/4 speakers.

200-gallon fuel tank to get you where the fish are. I rarely filled the tank, just because of the weight. I usually kept it around ½ full. 20-gallon fresh water tank with NEW pump for showers, power steering, power trim tabs, dual outriggers, Taylor console cover, 3 sided OEM canvas weather enclosure, Simpson/Lawrence Horizon 500- windlass, fresh ablative undercoating,

At the stern is a saltwater wash-down, and freshwater shower t rinse off after tubing. There is a live bait compartment with water circulation. There are port and starboard fish lockers in deck approximately 1 ft x 6 ft each.

Under the center console: is another fresh-water sprayer/shower and stainless-steel sink, porta-potty on sliding track so it is always secure, slides out of the way under the counter when not in use. There are two drawers and large storage compartment, and hanging canvas organizer for charts, first aid kit and important papers.

Above deck there rod holders for 17 rods and 6 additional holders for rod storage under port bow seat. Seating: Bow has port and starboard cushions and in front of console, dual helm seating, and fold out stern bench seat. Stainless steel wrap around bow rail gives everyone a great grab rail while keeping everyone safely on the boat.

NADA Guide valued the boat at $33,000 for a boat with most of my options in average condition. This boat is in EXCELLENT condition and has several items that were not included in the NADA Guide’s calculated value. Asking $31, 500

There is a reason Boston Whalers have consistently been one of the more expensive brands – QUALITY. I relied on these boats to get the job done while I was in the Coast Guard. We used and abused these boats far beyond their design and they came through every time. When I decided to get a boat for my family, I knew there was only one brand I would trust my life with. I wanted a Whaler. These boats are UNSINKABLE, literally. They show them cut in half and they still float. There is a hull within a hull and it has closed cell foam sandwiched between the hulls for floatation.
1998 Tow Master aluminum bunk style trailer with three axles. New tires 2011 and still have more than 90% tread left. Surge brakes with new brake disks, calipers and pads.

Reason for selling: Work has me traveling during summer months and I only got to use the boat 3 times last season. Unfortunately, my schedule precludes me from having a boat at this time.
