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.

Opinion on F100 on Outrage 17 1992

Member Posts: 20 Comments: 1 Joined: 08/06/13	I am seriously considering purchasing a BW Outrage 17 1992 with Yamaha F100 carburated four stroke engine. The Hull is in great shape because it was totally re-done 2 years ago. My only concern is the engine, the sale has been stalled because the owner has not been able to get the carburators to work smoothly. Two carb. Jobs have been done on the Engine and still no success, the compression on all four cilinders is perfect. I am looking for some wisdom into the engine question. Any advice or comments are welcomed, Thanks In advance for your time and Help Nas

If those are the numbers on the boat, I would see what in the world is going on. Edit: On further examination of the HIN number, the number you gave is not even for a 1992 Outrage 17' model. The Outrage 17' models start with BWCCA for the years 1990 to January of 1995 http://www.whalercentral.com/articles...icle_id=18 Something is rotten with those numbers you gave us for that year model. I would be very suspicious. Edited by Joe Kriz on 09/27/13 - 3:41 PM

This numer is on a brand new plate the the ownwer placed on the boat after painting the boat few years back. I questioned the origin of this number he gave me another number from the engraved aluminum plate that was originaly on the boat whe he bought it (563E292). After reading all the info available on Whaler Central About the Outrage 17 I am prety sure this is the real deal. I don't understand why the new was used could this be a sign of trouble? Thanks for creating this space for all whaler lovers. Regards Nas

Member Posts: 20 Comments: 1 Joined: 08/06/13	Thank You Phil T, that's exactly what I did now we are waiting for the Yamaha Certified that took all four Carbs to his shop to have them cleaned and assembled once again according to factory settings. If they are unsuccessful this last time I am going to ask the owner to adjust the price so we can get new carbs in place. I don't want to go out with my family and have engine trouble on our first outing. Thanks for your Advice i will stay in touch regards Nas

A90??? (six characters) Before registering, I would replace the HIN tag with the proper numbers. You could contact Boston Whaler and give them the correct Stencil and HIN numbers so they could confirm them. Then you could have a new HIN plate made with the correct numbers and keep the confirmation email from Boston Whaler for proof.
