2005 Boston Whaler 170 Montauk

Step aboard and you’ll notice how open and uncluttered the 170 Montauk feels for a boat this size. The forward casting deck doubles as generous seating, and with the bow rail wrapping around, it’s a comfortable spot to ride or rig tackle. The classic Whaler hull gives you that solid, confidence‑inspiring feel at the dock and underway, and the low-maintenance finish means washdowns are quick and painless. With the updated power on the transom, you get modern reliability paired with a simple, straightforward layout—easy to run, easy to own. It’s the kind of boat you can launch solo in the morning and still have room for friends or family in the afternoon.

This 170 Montauk shines in waters where you might run from shallow creeks to open sounds in a single day. The size makes trailering to different ramps simple, while the unsinkable hull and high freeboard give you confidence when afternoon chop kicks up. It’s small enough to poke around oyster beds, grass lines, and backwater flats, yet capable enough for runs across exposed stretches when the weather cooperates. The center console layout keeps the crew secure and gear organized, whether you’re chasing redfish and speckled trout or just beaching on a sandbar. For local anglers and family boaters alike, it hits a very practical sweet spot.
