I've had a 1976 17' Montauk, and we now have a 2006 Montauk 170. Both great boats. The 170 has the edge though. It's better in rough water, lower maintenance, the motor comes mounted in the right spot (as opposed to where there dealers decided to mount them in the old days), it's made for mounting a heavier 4 stroke motor, and roomier inside.
