I just brought her home from PA on Sunday, and she is absolutely gorgeous. She's a 26 year old garage queen used only a few weekends a year on a lake in the Poconos. She still sports the same '84 Evinrude 90 she came with from the showroom, and it runs like a top. Boat and motor are both in immaculate original condition and have never seen salt water (that's about to change). I've been around boats my whole life, but this is the first Whaler I've ever owned. I'm looking forward to the experience, as well as to sharing ideas and advice with all of you good people at Whaler Central. This is a great, hugely informative website. I'll post some pics as soon as I figure out how... 1984 Montauk--1984 Evinrude 90

I'm really happy with the purchase. PO's best guess was about 25 hours per year on average, including a few years when it was not used at all. A compression check showed all four cylinders to be operating at 120-125 psi, so that's a good sign. Good luck with your search. If I come across any deals, I'll let you know. 1984 Montauk--1984 Evinrude 90
