Hi Joe:

The information I gathered on the 1976 Boston Whaler Montauk 17 smirked hull, Stencil number 3B0317, did not originate from the craigslist ad.

I obtained detailed information about the boat directly from the owner. I have more than 2 pages of notes about the boat, its history, condition and photographs.

This boat - 3B0317 - is one of the very first Montauk 17 smirked hulls manufactured at Rockland, MA.

The boat left the factory on 10-14-1975 and was shipped to a dealer in NY.

The HIN is BWCB6031M76C

I confirmed all of this information about Stencil 3B0317 with Boston Whaler, Inc.

Regards,

Weatherly
