Monterey Elite 30 Adds European Flair at FLIBS Launch


 2025 Monterey Elite 30

Monterey Boats added a noticeably European flair to their latest 2025 launch -- the all-new Elite 30 OB.


The boat's most standout feature is undoubtedly the vertical bow, a growing trend among European builders that's gaining traction in North America for its offshore aesthetic and capability.


The new model will carry an LOA of 32'6" with engines (9.9 m) with a 9'8" beam (3.0 m). She will have a 200 US gal fuel tank (757 liters), a bridge clearance of 8'9" (2.7m), and a dry weight of 8600 lbs (3900 kg).


The longstanding Florida brand is firmly planted in the boutique dayboating market, and the Elite 30 will look to gain on their growing momentum. The company has been based in Williston, Florida since 1985.



The company is using 2025 to not only launch their new Elite series, but it will also coincide it with a brand overhaul including a new logo and design features.


"We are incredibly proud to celebrate our 40th anniversary with the introduction of a new logo and the Elite Series," said Charles Marshall, Co-Chairman of Monterey Boats, in a press release. "These new developments symbolize our journey over the past four decades and our unwavering commitment to providing our customers with the best boating experience possible. We extend our heartfelt thanks to our dealer partners, dedicated staff, and loyal customers for their support in making this milestone possible."

The award-winning Elite 30 also represents an achievement in the company's push for new innovations, design features, and craftsmanship. The Elite 30 is part of the company's Elite Experience line, a series that combines luxury with top-tier functionality to provide an exceptional boating experience.


“This model represents the pinnacle of our design and engineering capabilities, and we are confident it will exceed the expectations of even the most discerning boaters," said Marshall.
