You can still buy different versions of the console.

The 1983 to 1985 was slightly different than the later model which many people prefer.

kamie bought a 1986 and up version directly from Boston Whaler I believe.

I have the 1985 version on my 1985 Outrage 18' but preferred the 1986 version I had in a couple of the other Whalers I owned.

I've seen a guy selling Whaler consoles on the Houston Craigslist. They are just the fiberglass body, but that might be a good starting point. Also I believe Buckda is parting out an Outrage 18. Maybe he still has the console.

I have molds for a new style console that fits 15-17 whalers. There is no reason why it wouldnt fit an 18.

Call Sue @ Twin Cities and see if she can still order them. Make sure you tell them not to cut for the console doors or they will cut for the later plexi doors.
