2016 Monterey 258 SS

Slide into the cockpit of the 2016 Monterey 258 SS and you’ll notice how everything is laid out for easy, social days on the water. The deep, secure freeboard gives a confident ride when the chop picks up, while the wide bow lounge and wraparound aft seating make it just as comfortable to idle at sunset as it is to run at speed. The transom walk-through keeps wet feet off the cushions, and the extended swim platform feels like your own floating patio. Thoughtful storage under nearly every seat means the deck stays clear of clutter, even with a full crew and all their gear.

In waters where you might split the day between cruising, swimming, and watersports, the Monterey 258 SS really shines. Its size is ideal for slipping into tighter coves while still feeling substantial and stable when the breeze builds. The hull design handles afternoon chop with less pounding, giving you the confidence to stay out longer. Shallow draft lets you nose in close to beaches and sandbars, while the generous swim platform and easy boarding ladder simplify frequent hops in and out of the water. Add in the comfortable seating layout and smart storage, and it becomes a practical, stylish choice for varied local conditions and weekend exploring.
