Eight questions buyers ask about the Monterey Elite 30 OB, answered from the boats listed on US Marine Connection right now.
How much does a used Monterey Elite 30 OB cost?
Right now US Marine Connection has four priced Elite 30 OB listings, and they're asking between $269,977 and $294,977, with a median asking price of $269,977. Keep in mind those are asking prices, not what anyone actually paid. All four are described as brand new 2027 boats rather than used ones, so there isn't a true used-market price on the site at the moment to compare against.
What years of the Elite 30 OB are for sale?
Every Elite 30 OB currently listed is a 2027 model. All four listings describe the boat as brand new, so there's no spread of older model years to shop across here. If you're hoping to compare a 2024 or 2025 hull against a current one, that isn't something the listings on US Marine Connection support today.
How many hours is typical on a used Elite 30 OB?
None of the four listings states an hour figure, so there's no typical number to quote. That's not unusual given all four are described as brand new 2027 boats. What the listings do show is the propulsion setup: twin Mercury gas outboards, rated at 600 HP on three of them and 500 HP on the fourth. For hours on any specific hull, you'd need to ask the seller directly.
What should I check before buying a used Elite 30 OB?
Since the listed boats are 2027 models with twin Mercury outboards, confirm engine hours in writing, since no listing states them, and verify warranty coverage and registration status on a boat that new. Check rigging, steering and the outboard brackets on the transom, look for water intrusion around deck hatches and upholstery, and run all electronics and pumps. A sea trial and an independent survey are still worth it, even on new inventory.
What features come on the Elite 30 OB?
Going only by what the listings actually state: twin Mercury gas outboards, 600 HP on three boats and 500 HP on the fourth. Lengths are given as 30 feet on three listings and 32 feet 5 inches on another, with beams listed at 9 feet 8 inches and 9 feet 10 inches. The descriptions call it a luxury outboard bowrider focused on styling and comfort, but they don't itemize individual amenities.
Is the Elite 30 OB good for family days on the water?
That's the use the listings support best. All four are categorized as bowrider or deck boats, and the descriptions describe a luxury outboard bowrider built around styling and comfort, which fits cruising and day boating with family. One listing also mentions offshore performance, but nothing in these descriptions covers fishing layouts or gear, so don't assume rod storage, livewells or similar features are included.
Where can I find an Elite 30 OB for sale near me?
All four Elite 30 OB listings on US Marine Connection are in Bradenton, Florida, and all four include photos. There are no other cities represented for this model right now, so if you're shopping outside Florida you'd be looking at travel or transport arrangements. There are also no listings for sibling Monterey models on the site to check as an alternative in another location.
How much do Elite 30 OB asking prices vary between listings?
The spread is about $25,000, from $269,977 at the low end to $294,977 at the high end, with a median of $269,977. Since all four are 2027 models in the same city, the difference likely tracks equipment and engine choice, as three listings show twin 600 HP Mercury outboards and one shows twin 500 HP. These are asking prices only, not recorded sale prices.
