Bob Britton 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2007 Over the years, numerous owners of older Monterey's have posted, calling for help with manuals. MOST has told us that because of the fire, these records were lost. So, with this wonderful new website how about taking up the challenge, Monterey? There's a number of 276 and 296 owners around the world with these lovely boats. Surely someone out there has a manual and would be prepared to scan it and upload it to Monterey so that they can post it on their site. Are you up to the challenge of pursuing this, Mr. Administrator. A positive outcome would be so welcome, particularly to those of us foreigners who adore your boats but are surrounded by dealers and tradespeople who are completely unfamiliar with the boat. Maintenance and repairs is very much a case of feeling your way! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patrick 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2007 I agree, It seems like somewhere there should be someone with a copy of this that can be converted into a PDF file. It would go a long way with the owners of these older boats if this could be done. It would sure help solidify some brand loyalty! -pat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As ownwers of 1994 246SEL cruiser would love the idia that we could get the PDF of the manuals, Maybe MOST can check their records of whom they sold the boats to and aske them if they have the manuals for the scaning.

Fuelish Pleasure 0 Report post Posted July 4, 2008 We have a 1999 276 is this what they would be looking for? We have the manual is this what you mean? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bob Britton 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2008 We have a 1999 276 is this what they would be looking for? We have the manual is this what you mean? Hey Fuelish Pleasure Thanks for this. Do you think you would be able to scan your manual to a .pdf and issue this to MOST. Then he can post this on the site for anyone to access. This would be a truly community-benefitting thing to do as those of us who share the enjoyment of older Montereys have been unable to get hold of manuals. For me, mine's a 296 but shares many features with your 276 so it would definitely be a help to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
