Ive got to ask, have you ever ridden in a Montauk? They are small and don't ride that well. I think they are highly over rated(I've run three different ones this week)They are good boats for a couple of kids but thats about it. My 16 Mckee is the same size, but I have a much smaller console and my layout is better, its still a three person boat at max. and I despise the nut buster high rails on whalers.The 17 outrage is a whole nother story.
To answer your first question, fresh over salt any day off the week. i don't like low hour boats, they are rarely maintained and usually have a lot of undiscovered issues. 300-500 hours seems to be a good average. I'll take high hours over age any day(figured its been maintained and serviced)
