Member Posts: 12 Comments: 0 Joined: 06/24/14	Has anyone ever seen an 1988 Montauk with a dual console? We looked at one today and are trying to figure out how to add teak to the boat as this one only had fiberglass… I'd LOVE pictures! (please follow guideline #1 on the front page and use the full 4 digit year for everything) Edited by Joe Kriz on 06/25/14 - 12:13 PM

The interior makes the model. Here are Montauk 17' models. http://www.whalercentral.com/userphot...lbum_id=14 If it doesn't look like anything below, then it is a "Custom" model. http://www.whalercentral.com/userphot...owstart=20

Now to see if I can find bow cushions! Thanks so much for your help! Do you think we can add teak/wood anywhere? The only thing missing is that lovely Whaler teak!

The Super Sport Limited has lots of storage space. And it has just 2-3 pieces of mahogany wood that are used as deck and hatch supports, not display items. If you are looking for cushions for the 17 Super Sport Limited, I recommend you contact Anderson Manufacturing, in Titusville, FL. They can make you a complete set of OE spec cushions e.g., parchment with brown piping, for the SSL model. Anderson manufactured cushions are very well made and last many years. http://www.andersonmfg.biz/16.htmliz/16.html Edited by Weatherly on 06/26/14 - 4:54 AM

The BW17 The Super Sport Limited model came with an all fiberglass hatch that did not have hinges. BW installed a shock cord with two eyelets to hold it in place. Install a new shock cord if yours is missing.
