Hello, I hope somebody could help me.

I've bought a Boston Whaler 21 Outrage 1994 with only 200 hours on hull and engines. Perfect condition always out of the water. When I'm looking on the internet the 21 Outrage is 2,30 meters wide. But this one is 2,68m wide. Also, the gas tank stainless is 550 liters, 100 more than normal (what I thought). There are genuine Marlin stickers on the center console left and right. Does anybody now something about this model?

Also there are some small mistakes on the boat I want to change. Possibly somebody could help me to get the parts.

1.) The manual is missing. Where can I get the genuine manual for the boat.
2.) There is a switch "Live well" which I could switch on and the light is burning but nothing happens. Is it for a pump? I couldn't find a pump for the live wells.
3.) I need the complete Boston Whaler graphics and also the Outrage 21 logo. I want only genuine parts, left and right.
4.) I want to put a FURUNO fishfinder on it but I couldn't find a hole for the through hull transducer/sounder. Is it only possible at the back? I don't like it.
5.) T-Top? Where could I get a T-top that fits perfectly?
6.) On my console are black wooden doors. I have seen a 1998 with white plastic doors which I would prefer. Could I get these still new?
7.) What is the exact weight of the boat without engines?
8.) Where could I get the rubber inserts for the drainage valves? The boats has got one left and right on the hull and two on the backside.
9.) In the storage space in the front behind the anchor space is a small drainage hole where I could look down outside the hull. Is this normal or must there be a rubber stick or something like that to prevent water coming in?
10.) I also want to put a new radio cover on her because the plexiglass is cloudy.

Regards,
Nico

Janis @Magic Brush, 386-736-1142, has all the original decals.... It's not a "Marlin" edition, all Outrages in that era got the Marlins on the console, the Dauntless lines got Tunas...

#4 thru hull transducer

Many smaller models did not have the special pad for installing a thru hull. While some don't like transom mounted transducers, many of the complaints are because it is not mounted correctly.

#5 T-top

Most owners buying a used whaler and want a t- top get one made by a local fabricator or a ready built one. Do a google search for your area and country to see who is available. A typical t-top costs $1,500-4,000 USD.

#6 doors

The doors originally were composite, not wood. There are several manufactures that make doors.

# 8 drainage flaps

I do not recall there being scupper covers on the side deck drains. There may have been on the rear drains. These flaps wear out and many owners turn them around to get more life out of them. To replace them, ping pong ball scupper covers are recommended. They look like this:
http://www.boatersworld.com/product/M...251875.htm

# 9 drain plug

There are standard drain plugs available for the drains in the anchor locker and fish lockers. I recall they take a 1" plug and insert from inside the boat. Look like this:
http://www.boatersworld.com/product/M...811436.htm

#10. plexiglass electronics box door

Try using a plexiglass cleaner/polish product. It can clean it up so a replacement is not needed. I use this brand:

Hey phil, Darn good job with all that information.

one point of note . I had a 1997 20 outrage that did have floor drains through the side of the hull. you can not use the ball scupper there you would have to stay with the flapper. The good thing was the floor was so far above the water line water never tried to back up on the floor

I'm going to stick my neck way out here, without seeing any photos. YOU DON'T HAVE A BOSTON WHALER.

You have a MARLIN. This was the first name of Bob Dougherty's new line of boats after he left Boston Whaler in 1990. Besides the initial 17 and 18' models, he did later offer a 21' model, and of course, they look somewhat similar to his previous Whaler designs. They are constructed differently from Whalers. Shortly after that 21 came out, some additional money came into the company and they changed the name to Edgewater.

Assuming there is a photo of a 1994 Outrage 21 in the "Whaler Model" section here, check one out and see if it looks like your boat. It may not, as you have already determined the specs are not the same. And you are saying the boat has no Whaler or Outrage decals on it?

As I said, all of this is just a wild guess, but the Marilin 21 was a real boat, and quite nice, actually.

Larry might be right. The Marlin 210 had the same beam:

That does not appear to be a Whaler in your personal page as others have guessed.
We will leave the personal page here for awhile so people can view what appears to be a very close resemblance of a Boston Whaler or, unless it is proven to actually be a Whaler which I doubt at this point.

Let's see if anyone can tell the difference. Too bad there is only one photo.

That one photo is not enough.
I see differences in that photo that tells me it is different from a 1994 21' Boston Whaler.
The bow rail is not the same as shown in the 1994 catalog.

More photos would help.

Also, what is the HIN tag number on the stern of the boat?

Yeah, the bow rail is different, shorter, but the gunwales, spring-line cleats, transom cutout, bow shape, floor locker, console, pedestal placement all looks exactly like an Outrage 21.

This boat may be a European market model so maybe the bow rails were different or perhaps custom made later.

A better photo would make it clearer.

Well, it's definitely a 90's 21 Outrage, I would know... There was a teak package available and a couple of the earlier built had them, although more than just the console doors would have been teak, the electronics box cover frame & chart flat trim would be also. It looks like there is a solid piece on that face, not original... And all starboard would be black like the rod holders under the gunnels.

That explains the bow rail.
Yes, the teak wooden package was also available on other Outrages like the 1996 Outrage 17' II.

Billfish, can you give us the HIN number like I asked above?
That will prove the year for all of us.
