Thread subject: Whaler Central - Boston Whaler Boat Information and Photos :: Shaft Length for a 1975 Montauk 17'

Hi I just bought a 75 HP Mercury for my Whaler. I'm not sure but, I think it's a 1975 Montauk. The Mercury has a 20" shaft and I'm wondering if it's too long and if so; what are my options if any?
Thanks for any input!

All 16'-7" Whalers, including the Montauk take a 20" (Long) shaft motor.

If you are not sure about the model, take a look in our "Whaler Models and Info" link on the left sidebar to see what model you have.
If you still can't determine the model, then it is most likely now a Custom model.

Here are the Montauk models:
