  1. The exact information on LOA is in the manual . You can download that on this site. {url=http://forums.montereyboats.com/index.php?showtopic=83] Here [/url}

    The manual for your 282CR is the exact same manual for the 322CR. It covers 250CR,270CR,282CR,302CR and 322CR.

    The LOA (same as "true length") for the 322CR is 34'2" and can be found on page M-3. Page M-1 shows how LOA is measured.

     

    Highly unlikely you can still get a product brochure. I have one from 2005 for our 282CR we owned. The brochure is of little practical use. All it contains is factory

    pictures of all the cruiser models Monterey made that year, and brief specs that can be found in more detail in the owners manual above. There is no one factory

    brochure just for the 322CR.

     

    The recommended engine combo is what ever you prefer. Always bigger is better. The 5.oL will be adequate, but the 5.7L would be preferred.

    There is no recommend HP for the BIII or VP/DP, just not to exceed 400HP per engine.


  2. You can try and contact the manufacturer for correct pieces and part #'s.

    Ameritex Fabric Systems

    1900 47th Ter E, Bradenton, FL 34203

     

     

    (941) 747-1900
    • Fax: 401-789-8790
    • Fax: 941-749-5000

    Or, contact customer service at Monterey. They will have the Ameritex/TaylorMade part #'s you need. When we had our 05' 282CR, I got the full canvas

    part # listing from Monterey, in case it was ever needed.


  3. The 8.1 gasser's are good engines, with the exception of known fuel pump problems on all Volvo engines in time. I'm sure you have read about the painted inside of the pumps, that peels off over time and caused pump failure. At about $1,000 per pump, it's not cheap to replace. So check and see if the pumps have been replaced, a 2006 is about due for failure. Thankfully the drives were replaced, you can't give a way a boat with the Ocean series composite drives on them. Dealers will not even talk trades if the boat

    has those drives.

     

    Based on what you have listed, I think you should be okay with this set up. Of course have the entire boat surveyed structurally and mechanically before you sign anything.


  4. Monterey would likely not "produce" these stickers. They probably buy them from an approved vendor in large quantities. Stickers like these, do not stay

    on each model year for very long. A couple of years only I suspect, so for the same sticker to be on 2013 boats, 10 years later, is questionable.


  5. I would suggest a long tape measure. Not a lot of archival information available from Monterey previous to the fire.

    Maybe you will get lucky and another owner has that info for you. Measuring might be quicker and easier.


  6. Local canvas shop may be you're best chance . It's worth a try to have your dealer source the original part numbers from Monterey. It may be http://www.taylormarine.com/canvas/] ( Ameritex.)

    On our 2005 282CR, I had a complete parts list that listed the canvas part numbers for everything on the boat.

     

    Transducer should be near centerline of the boat, possibly in the bilge. Not positive on the 302. Connections at the gauge Okay ?
