Boston Whaler 21: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Overview

The Boston Whaler 210 Montauk represents a comprehensive redesign of the Montauk line, featuring a new hull and interior layout that enhance seating, storage, and overall functionality. As the flagship model, it maintains the brand's core values of low maintenance, easy handling, durability, and unsinkability. The 210 Montauk offers flexibility through a basic platform with numerous optional features, allowing owners to tailor the boat to their specific needs.

Exterior Design and Deck Layout

The 210 Montauk measures 21 feet 4 inches in length with an 8 foot 6 inch beam and a draft of 15 inches with the engine raised. The bow area exemplifies the boat's versatility, featuring a 73-inch wide by 46-inch fore-and-aft casting deck. The bow rail is available in two heights; the test boat had the taller 13-inch rail above the cap rail. Cushions convert the bow into a sunning or seating area, complemented by integrated cup holders and optional backrests that create chaise lounge-style seating. The bow also includes insulated anchor locker and fish box storage compartments, each with gas strut-assisted hatches sealed by rubber gaskets. The console front houses an optional bench seat atop a removable 94-quart cooler secured by bungee cords and brackets. The boat offers protection options such as a fiberglass hardtop or a canvas T-top with a powder-coated frame, courtesy lighting, and rod holders. Additional features include a ventilated console hatch with storage, sturdy bow rails with integrated rod holders, and a swim platform with a four-step boarding ladder compliant with ABYC standards. The cockpit includes hinged, non-skid casting platforms with padded seats and backrests in the stern quarters, beneath which batteries are stored. The boat also features a freshwater engine flush and well-positioned fuel fill to minimize spills.

Helm and Control Station

The helm is equipped with a high acrylic windscreen and a well-organized dash featuring a compass, a 9-inch Raymarine multifunction display, multifunction gauges, and a tachometer set within a carbon fiber-effect panel. Controls include illuminated rocker switches, circuit breakers, a Fusion stereo system, connectivity ports, and 12-volt power outlets. The VHF radio is mounted to starboard, though the microphone placement could be improved to avoid accidental contact. The ignition and emergency shut-off switch are conveniently located, and the console interior provides 4 feet 4 inches of headroom with seated headroom of 3 feet 4 inches above a Dometic pump-out toilet. The helm seat measures 36 inches wide by 20 inches deep, raised 27 inches above deck, with a convertible backrest and outboard rod holders. The seat base lifts to reveal a 30-gallon aerated livewell with a light and rounded corners. A tool holder is mounted on the leaning post's rear, though relocating it away from seating areas is advisable.

Performance and Handling

Powered by a 150-horsepower Mercury four-stroke outboard with a 14.7 by 16 three-bladed stainless steel propeller, the 210 Montauk demonstrated strong performance during sea trials. With a test load of approximately 3,930 pounds, the boat reached a top speed of 40.1 miles per hour at 5,750 RPM. Optimal cruising speed was 22.3 miles per hour at 3,500 RPM, achieving a fuel consumption rate of 5.4 gallons per hour, which translates to 4.2 miles per gallon and a range of 249 statute miles with a 10% fuel reserve. The boat planes quickly, reaching planing speed in 3.6 seconds, 20 miles per hour in 7.8 seconds, and 30 miles per hour in 11.4 seconds. The 16-degree transom dead rise and sharp entry provide a smooth ride with minimal pounding in moderate chop. The boat held its line well through turns without ventilation when trimmed appropriately. Steering requires 5.25 turns lock to lock, and a spinner knob is recommended to improve handling, especially given the propeller's torque effect.

Safety and Additional Features

Boston Whaler emphasizes safety with the 210 Montauk’s unsinkable construction, capable of floating level even when swamped with 4,000 pounds of crew and gear aboard. This flotation capability exceeds regulatory requirements for boats over 20 feet in length. The boat is delivered with a tandem axle galvanized trailer featuring a swing-away tongue and disc brakes. Additional thoughtful design elements include easy access to the bilge pump, freshwater engine flushing system, and well-positioned fuel fill to prevent spills.

Conclusion

The Boston Whaler 210 Montauk successfully blends a redesigned hull with enhanced interior comfort and versatile features, creating a boat that transitions effortlessly between fishing and family use. Its strong performance, thoughtful layout, and renowned unsinkability provide confidence and enjoyment for a wide range of boating activities. The boat’s customizable options and practical design make it a compelling choice for those seeking a reliable and adaptable center console.
