For sale is our very nice Monterey 262 CruiserWe have owned and enjoyed this boat for 11 years, but mama bought a bigger one.Full camper top for bug less, dry nights. Made by Great Lakes tops so any part of top is available and cheaper than a custom canvas shop.Shore powered air conditioning a true plus for hot nightsTwo ac/dc refrigerators that work Built in microwave with 1000 watt inverter to have 110 power out on water2 built in rod holders and 2 removable ones. Built in ones will support downriggers.Nice layout to seats. Rear one folds up and into transom and out of the way for fishing. Helm seat lays down to make a nice sized bed.alcohol and electric burner stovePowerful 7.4 MPI motor that always has its oil changed. Motor and manifolds are original and untouched. Runs great and you don't have to stink the docks out letting it warm up or worry about it stalling when pulling out right away.Three year out Sea Core outdrive, had to replace old drive because fishing line took out bottom seal and water got into case.The gimbal, bellows, shift cable, steering arm, and seal are two years old as well as the impeller Two batteries that are one year oldTrailer tires are two years old with 100 miles on them   Newer Lowrance Elite 5 depth finder. Very detailed system with GPS.Hot water tank runs on motor heat or shorepowerVacuflush toilet with holding tankFinish, shine, and seats are very good and actually better than the 06 we just bought.Air horn, remote light, led running lights, trim tabsWe looked all summer to get the boat we have now and wish people would have disclosed flaws before we traveled hundreds of miles away to see their boat, so here is the Montereys listThere are three places that have some spider webbing that have been there and remained the same since we have owned it. Only one spot on top side is more noticeable about a foot long and 4 inches tall.The 4 port windows are brittle and catches were failing so I siliconed one shut and we don't use the others. I did mention it has ac and it works great.The hatch is also made of plastic and lift rod and hinge are broke but you can still crack it open for air flow or open for escape and does not leak. This is a Bomar product as well as port windows if you wanted to replace, we just haven't had the need to.It has a Bennet auto tab unit that came on the boat, sounds like a good idea, but never got a manual for it or figured out how it worksThe trailer brakes don't work as the master cylinder needs replaced, we only used it to pull boat in and out of water and short trip home. This boat is a 98 but runs and looks great,  here is your chance before mama gives it to our son.
