The 2004 Monterey 302 Cruiser is a well-regarded mid-cabin express cruiser with twin MerCruiser 5.0 MPI power and Duo Prop outdrives. Known for its open, contemporary cabin layout, the 302 delivers a practical blend of cockpit entertaining space and below-deck livability. This is a freshwater Lake Erie boat based in Cleveland, Ohio.
At just over 30 feet, the Monterey 302 offers a full galley, enclosed head, and a spacious mid-cabin — all accessible through a wide cabin entry that gives the interior an open feel uncommon in this size range. A tri-axle bunk trailer is included and can be separated if the buyer prefers an in-water purchase.
Why This Boat
The Monterey 302 is one of the more popular express cruisers in its size range for a reason — the cabin layout is genuinely open and usable, not an afterthought squeezed under a low deck. Twin 5.0 MPI power with Duo Props gives you reliable performance and solid handling in Lake Erie's short-period chop. Add in the cockpit wet bar with ice maker, a full galley, enclosed head, and a tri-axle trailer, and this is a turnkey package for weekend cruising out of any port on the south shore.
