Smile About to buy ...

My husband and I looked at a 1997 Mariah Talari 211 tonight, and I think we're going to buy it. It's all RED, which is cool. I was trying to find some pictures of this boat, and it's very hard to find. The closest I found was the Shabah (sp?) because the seats look the same. I really want to see the original brochures, so maybe someone will let me in there? Tell me if there's something I need to do.

I'll post again after we buy the boat

Amy

    Ahoy Amy and welcome to the club!

    I would highly recommend becoming a contributing member, think of it as a small investment towards keeping your Mariah in tip top condition and in return, you not only have access to the brochures, but more importantly, a growing library of manuals for the the stern drives and equipment, wiring diagrams and all sorts of information relevant to your Mariah.

    Click here to see what each level has to offer.

    Good luck,
    WetWilly

    Thumbs up

    As you can see from the photo, we made the purchase! So far, we love our Mariah. Only been out in it twice, since the warm weather is gone now. Got it winterized and squeezed into our shed (4 inches to spare) for the winter. Really looking forward to next summer!

    Hi Amy,

    From all of us here at the "club", CONGRATULATIONS to you and your husband on being new Mariah owners!

    Sorry to hear you had to put your Talari away for the winter, but I know next summer, the both of you will have a great time on the water and the opportunity to meet other Mariah owners and members too! Just be prepared to get a lot of attention with that Ferrari Red hull!

    WetWilly

    Well, I won't be posting any of those kind of pictures. Sorry to disappoint. Let's just say I'll leave the bikini wearing to the girls who can wear them well.
