Overview
The Monterey 282 Cruiser is the smallest wide-beam model in Monterey's cruiser lineup, designed to offer versatile functionality in a compact package. At just under 28 feet, this model incorporates many features typically found in larger cruisers, making it a well-rounded boat suitable for entertaining, sleeping, and cooking. Its efficient use of space has made it a popular choice among consumers seeking a multi-purpose cruiser.
Exterior Design and Deck Layout
The 282 Cruiser features an optional extended swim platform that adds over two feet to the boat's length, enhancing comfort for swimming and diving activities. The transom includes a neatly integrated storage hatch for lines, fenders, and shore power hookups. The cockpit seating consists of two bench seats with a removable dining table, although this area does not convert into a sun lounge as might be desired. To port, a small wet bar offers ample counter space, a sink, and generous storage beneath. The helm station is thoughtfully designed with two tiers of instrumentation for easy readability and includes a tilt steering column; however, the black steering wheel tends to absorb heat on sunny days. Molded steps at the bridge provide safe access to the foredeck, where the bow sun pad and anchor windlass are located.
Interior Living Spaces
Below deck, the upper deck folds down to reveal a dining area within the V-berth, equipped with a sink, cooktop, microwave, and a concealed television with VCR. The interior layout maximizes comfort and functionality, providing a spacious aft cabin for overnight guests. The starboard-side head includes a flush toilet, vanity with sink, and a shower. Notably, the shower area features a seat positioned above the toilet for added bathing comfort.
Power and Performance
With the optional extended swim platform installed, the Monterey 282 Cruiser measures 30 feet, 10 inches in length and has a beam of 10 feet. The hull features a 19-degree dead rise and the boat weighs over 10,000 pounds. Powered by twin stern drives, the 282 achieves impressive speeds, reaching over 47 miles per hour at 4,800 RPM and up to 68 miles per hour at 4,600 feet.
Conclusion
The Monterey 282 Cruiser successfully blends the spaciousness and amenities of larger cruisers into a compact, wide-beam design. Its thoughtful layout, both above and below deck, combined with strong performance figures, make it a versatile and appealing option for boaters seeking a multi-functional cruiser under 30 feet.
