Sophie 0 Report post Posted September 27, 2008 HI! just orderd a Monteray 280SCR ...Hopfully to be delivered to Frenchman`s bay in Pickering Ont next spring....hope to hear from other buyers.....this my first new boat! I had a 270CR 2007 and moved to a 290 CR (relabeled a 300) 2009 this year. What I love about the new 280 is that it gives you the extra beam and maintains the port side lounger. We loved having the lounger but wanted the extra beam. The new sun lounger is also a big plus. We really have enjoyed it on our new 290/300 and it does not take away from the swim platform in any significant way. Enjoy your 280. From your fellow Canuck on the Rideau.
