Monterey 196FS

2017 Monterey 196 FS

Only 157 Hours • Clean, Sporty, and Ready for Summer

If you’re looking for a nearly new-feeling bowrider without the new-boat price, this 2017 Monterey 196 FS deserves your attention. With only 157 hours on the engine, this boat has seen light use and presents extremely well both mechanically and cosmetically.

Powered by a MerCruiser 4.3 MPI, this fuel-injected V6 delivers smooth, responsive performance with plenty of power for cruising, tubing, or spending the afternoon exploring the lake. Paired with Monterey’s deep-V hull design, the 196 FS offers a confident ride while remaining easy to handle around docks and marinas.

Step aboard and you’ll immediately notice how clean and well kept the boat feels. The cockpit layout is open and social, with comfortable wraparound seating that makes it easy to spend the day on the water with family and friends. The open bow provides additional seating and a great spot to relax while anchored or cruising.

At the helm, gauges and controls are positioned for easy operation, giving the captain excellent visibility and a comfortable command of the boat. The wide swim platform at the stern creates the perfect place to gear up for watersports or jump in for a swim on a warm summer afternoon.

With its manageable size, quality construction, and low hours, this Monterey is the kind of boat that’s easy to own and even easier to enjoy. Whether you're heading out for an evening cruise, pulling the kids on a tube, or spending the day anchored with friends, the 196 FS is built to make those moments effortless.

Clean, low-hour boats like this don’t come along often.
