Hello all
I hope everyone is having a great summer.
Was there an option for a bow pulpit on this boat? I saw a pic of one recentily that had a teak pulpit and the rails come out to it in the bow as well. Just wondering if this is factory or aftermarket.

This was an factory option.

Thanks for the reply. I thought it was, but I haven't seen too many with it.
Does anyone have any pro's or cons on this?

When I bought my 1986 Outrage 18 new, I ordered it with the Bow Pulpit option, about $500 if I recall. It is one of the nicest accessories you can have on the Outrage boats.

The bow pulpit in the Craigslist photos appears to be O.E.M.
