See the photos for the various 16 or 17 models on page 1 and 2 here: http://www.whalercentral.com/userphot...rowstart=0 The Outrage 23 was made from 1998 till 2001 then renamed the 230 Outrage for 2002 before being dropped. What year is your model? 1992 Outrage 17 I 2019 E-TEC 90, Viper 17 2+ 2018 Load Rite Elite 18280096VT

I recommend stopping after about five miles of trailering to snug up the new tie down straps. They will stretch and loosen the cover when new. You will need to repeat the this about three times on your first covered tow. I also like to check the tie downs anytime I stop for fuel, etc. just to be sure the cover is tight. A loose cover will probably be damaged and possibly cause damage to your boat or trailer. Once the tie downs have been used a time or two or for a day or two on a longer trip they will not stretch anymore. Tight lines! Butch
