This 2005 Monterey 298 SS is a standout example of a performance-oriented cruiser that has been exceptionally well maintained, consistently upgraded, and cared for over the years.

The cockpit is designed for entertaining, with generous wraparound seating, a portside chaise, convertible aft sunpad, wet bar with refrigerator, freshwater sink, ice bucket and storage, plus a Magma BBQ. The full camper enclosure adds valuable weather protection for spring and fall cruising, while the cabin provides a comfortable berth for overnighting or additional storage. The enclosed head features a molded fiberglass compartment, VacuFlush head, hot and cold freshwater sink, storage and opening portlight.

Equipped with a Garmin GPSMAP 942 chartplotter, GMR 18 radar and GSD 24 sonar, along with Bennett trim tabs, Lewmar V700 windlass and selectable performance exhaust, this Monterey is ready for serious cruising or simply enjoying a fast day on the water. Recent upgrades include 2018 electronics and canvas, a 2017 berth refresh and 2021 cockpit carpet. A Spring 2026 marine survey provides additional peace of mind. With its combination of low hours, extensive equipment, strong performance and careful ownership, this 298 SS is a particularly compelling opportunity for someone looking for a turnkey performance cruiser.
