I have a 2005 Monterey Montura 248. I am looking for a new courtesy light that mounts above the stair in the rear of the cockpit. Thanks

I have a 2005 Montura 248LS. It is my first boat and I also was looking only at Sea Ray, since that was the boat of choice of most of my friends. I have only had it in the water since June 15th, I am very pleased with it. Enjoy your new Monterey. My Sea Ray friends all like it and feel the seating layout is much better than Sea Ray.

Okay, been a boater most of my life and we are in the market for a 2nd boat now, looking at a bowrider. Montery is my 1st choice, Regal my second, and he Montery has an edge on this as Im in Gainesville, FL and they build Montery boats about 40 minutes tops from me.
I am looking used, 2003-2007 in that area Bowrider 21-24 foot. Prefer Merc vs Volvo and a bravo 2 or 3 vs alpha 1.
It's kind of hard searching for the perfect Boat when your buying used as of model changes by year. I'd like to be able to hold 6-8 comfortably that pushes It up to a 24ft, I would also like an enclosed head, Not sure if Montery ever put these on the bowriders.
Got rid of My 26ft Proline WA in 2008, in 2010 I went in 3 way with my Father in Law and Uncle in Law on a 30 foot Rinker that can not be trailered. We have it mored in Jax across from Jaguar stadium.
What we are looking for now is a boat for fun on the rivers and lakes around us that I can store at my HOA facility and use at a drop of the hat.
Anyone with some knowledge of the older Montery's with what I am looking for please giving me a suggestion on what you would recomend. Not sure what size and models where available and when.
Thanks
Happy Boating!

I purchased my first boat this year. It is a 2005 Monterey 248LS Montura . It is 24 feet, 8 inches long. I use it on a Lake and have it with a valet service, which works out perfectly for us. It has a 300 HP Merc motor, bravo2 and a good sized head. It is a portapotty, but it can be pumped out. It will hold up to 11 people and 6-8 very comfortably. I had been looking at Sea Rays, since most of my friends have them. I like this better. I think it rides better, handles better and has a better layout for seating. I think you would be very happy with it. I saw one on boat trader that was in Fl, when I was looking for mine. It is still listed. Here is a link to it. http://www.boattrader.com/listing/2005-Monterey-248-LS-Bowrider-101813649 Good luck!

I recently bought a 248 Montura and I am having an issue with the sun pad. I believe it is an earlier design since it does not have cut outs molded in the front seat side panels to accommodate any support bars. When I put the pad in place and sit on it, it falls thru to the floor. Has anyone run into this and have a solution?
Thanks

I just purchased a 2005 248 LS Bowrider. I was planning to buy a Magma SS grille for it. I am looking for suggestions of what other people have bought and where they have mounted them. Thanks in advance for your help.

I bought my 25qt Igloo marine cooler at WalMart for $19.95. I ordered it on line and had it shipped to the local store.
