Boat history:The current owner purchased this Monterey 242 Cruiser from the original owner in 2005. At the time of purchase in 2005 the boat had 122 hours. The boat has never been stored or moored for long periods in the water. It has been trailered after each use – that’s why it has never been bottom painted! This 242 Cruiser was only used in fresh water until 2014. In 2014 and 2015, it was taken up to explore the San Juan Islands and Canadian Gulf Islands for a total of 15 days use. Fresh water internal flushing was performed after both trips. The current owner is a retired commercial pilot and understands the importance of regular maintenance for both his airplane and boat. In addition to winterizing in the fall and making ready every spring, the oil has been changed every year and the plugs changed every other year. Additional engine and outdrive maintenance was performed as needed. In the past three years this 242 Cruiser has had new batteries, a new impeller and water pump, new “glass” for the canvas enclosure, a new Standard Horizon VHF radio, new cabin fans, and a new marine Kenwood AM/FM/CD/USB player.
