## Brief Summary

**The Monterey Elite 30** won boating Magazine’s “2025 Boat of the Year” and we couldn’t agree more about this boat being best in class. In fact, we think she shows improvements on some of the European boats that started the dayboat revolution.

The coolest aspect of the Elite 30 is her port side helm twin bucket seats with a console in between – think 1964 Mustang. (For those of our readers not 70+ years old, take a look at the image below, which was the first affordable car to popularize twin bucket seats and a center console with shift controls.)

1964 Ford Mustang with “four-on-the-floor".This boat was made for entertaining a crowd in two venues forward and aft, and has all of the amenities one could ask for in 30’ – including a large head and dash to hardtop windscreen.

**To find out about special club pricing** for the Monterey Elite 30, and how you can earn income to pay annual expenses and your boat loan, contact the folks at Sovereign Boat Club.
