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.

Never be ashamed to show your true feelings!!! What caused you to part with your Montauk? And what will you be replacing her with? Every "real" man needs a Whaler.... As far the black marks, I agree with Tom. We need to know the source of the marks. I'm going to assume they were caused by the bunks on your trailer and tell you to try, a; Rubbing compound, followed by a quick wipe of wax or b; Comet. I have had great success removing black sneaker marks from the non skid on the deck. Used in conjunction with a stiff nylon brush the Comet works well.
