When out looking at a boat today, the owner said look over here, I have a 17' Guardian. Since I was looking at another boat, I didn't pay much attention. I didn't ask the year, but my guess is a 70's or 80's model. Did whaler make a 17' Guardian?

If the boat is on good condition, grab it. I could not be happier with my Guardian, but it was never used commerically

Thanks for the replys.

edmaude, could you email me a couple of pics. This one does not have the original console I know. It has been sitting for years, no trailer, in the guy's yard under trees (not much sunlight). Full of leaves, etc. He wants 2K for it just like it sits. I have no idea what it is worth.

Thanks,
Tommy

The 22' Guardian is used by the Bay constibles near me, they used to bolt a v8 outboard to the back and use them as chase boats. Chase duty is now handled by the new police jet boats (FAST, and can get over the sand bars here).

My 1995 Guarding is essentially an Outrage. Just built a little beefier.
