Default New To Mariahs

Howdy All..

It was recommended that I post to introduce myself. It is a pretty simple story..just sold a 37' Carver and considering a Mariah...I am sure that I know I won't get a biased opinion as to their quality on this site....Look forward to learning all I can about them..... Especially find the 302 an interesting design...looking for something to haul 8-10 folks around Lake MI but still have some overnight quarters...any insights helpful...

MM

    You hit it on the head MM!
    Do a search for Z302's and you'll find lots of info. Also check out the gallery.
    There are quite a few guys in the club that have them.

    BTW: Welcome to MOC!!

    The Z302 is perfect for what u ar asking im confortally fit 10 people 3 coolers and camping gear in the mid cabin without a problem and still maintain 45mph on choppy lake, i also have the smaller engine, Rynovw is selling his right now for a great deal and he has the bigger engine in his.

    I also wakeboard, ski, and tow people on my 5 person raft.

    They are plenty of Z302 owners here but if they dont chime in u are welcome to pm me if u have any questions

    Welcome MidnightMoon. I have had my Z302 on Lake Michigan for three Summers now. Its a fantastic boat, and I love most everything about it. Handles the chop like a pro MOST days -- but there as you know, there are definitely days on Lake Michigan that you don't want any open bow out there -- even a 30 footer.

    Good luck in your search. Let me know if you have any questions.
