Just excited to share - I have put down a deposit on a new 150 Montauk from the dealership in Seattle. My build date is July 19th, with delivery expected in early August. It sounds far away, but I feel lucky to have a date that early in this crazy boat market - they are now booking into next year. I notice there are relatively few people on this site with a post-2017 150 Montauk, so if any of you are in Washington I'd love to meet you. This will be my first power boat, though I have canoed a lot around here and know the waters fairly well. I plan to explore rivers, lakes, and near shore, and do some wildlife photography. I might as well learn how to fish. Looking forward to joining the club!
I have had a 150 Montauk on order since last fall. I may get it delivered in Seattle in May. It will have the fishing package, no bimini, all rails high and low and a towing eye. The trailer will have electric brakes. After a long process of indecision I elected not to buy the factory installed Raymarine AXION 7. I would like a larger display, at least 9 inches but flush mounting anything larger is apparently not possible. I was advised to wait until I get the boat to work out what MFD would work best for me.
We keep our big boat in Anacortes WA. For 20 years we have had a 13 ft Whaler sport as a dinghy. We just upgraded the davit (crane) so we can now lift the 150 Montauk aboard as a new dinghy.
