Good luck with the Montery. My inlaws bought a new 32 a few years back and it had more fit and finish issues among other things. Doors didnt close good, cockpit deck flexed as you walked across it, electrical gremlins and more. Trying to get service or replacement parts proved to be a nightmare also. Was a 32 footer with twin big blocks. Nice looking boat, ran well when it did, but there was alot of "cheese" manufacturing/fit & finish to the boat. The dealer they got it from dropped the line because of all the problems they had with them.

They ended up selling it at a significant loss. Never did get most of the issues fixed.

Again, best of luck to you. I would look at Sea Rays or a Cruisers Yachts.

I am surprised to hear that. We have owned a 214fs and a 298ss and had great luck. I have driven many others as well. Shep browns is a great dealer, right around the corner from our lake house.

Thanks

It is a great boat, now that it is all straightened out. Of course when I go back to the lake Thursday for a long weekend I may change my mind!

Barbour Corp in Mass. They are the original vendor for Sonic. I think I posted their info in another thread.

The insert part# is 00850. It comes in a 100' roll.

For some reason I don't have a button to post pics. Send me an email at [email protected] and I will send them to you directly, or create a shutterfly album.
