1. Use the full 4 digit year for everything you are asking your question about. Example: 1962, 1988, 2000, 2011
2. Include the correct name of your Whaler model. Example: Montauk 17, Montauk 170, Outrage 26, Outrage 260
3. Include the length when necessary. Example: 16, 17, 18, 20, 22
4. Do not post your email address anywhere on this site as it is already in your user profile.

Serial number was given to me as, BWCK 0492 E 586 whaler has no record of 586, they have a 585 Advertised as a 87, Whaler says 85 Advertised as a sport, whaler says if it's 585 it's a standard which means tiller not remote this boat has remote attached some pics can anyone lend a idea? does this look like a sport, ss or standard? additional pics avial if you email me seller is not avail to confirm on his end till later tonight and tomorrow is supposed to be deal day cheers eric Edited by eric80 on 06/07/07 - 2:21 PM

If the boat was made in E5, then it should be a 1985 year model as the year model would not change unless the boat was made in July of 1985 as a 1986 model year. See the reference article here: http://www.whalercentral.com/readarti...icle_id=61 Look at the New Year Format on the above link. I think they may have given you the wrong numbers. They are hard to read sometimes...
