Re: is it a z
Dunno until we get some more info. The vin# doesnt tell you much other than the model year. Post a pic or two particularly of the dash area and exterior?
Mariah had an MX series, a 1900 Z, a Shabah, Talari & Barchetta all in that size bracket for 1993. If it has things like a drivers side windshield wiper, docking lights, built in compass & digital depth sounder then it most likely is a "1900 Z" series. btw...it is a '93 by the vin# but your ID shows a '92 Talari 19'. According to the brochure the Talari only came in 20' versions for '93. If it is in fact a 19' then i suspect its either an MX or a 1900 series. The pics will help. |
Re: is it a z
Hi s.a.charlie.
There are several ways to identify a "Z" model but I find the easiest way is by looking on top of the driver's dash. If you have a windshield defogger vent there, it's a "Z". Only the "Z" models from the 1900 Z all the way up to the 2350CZ came with a power windshield defogger for the driver's side in 93. Another item is the Hull Docking lights, all "Z"s came standard with them but be careful, they were offered as an option for the non "Z" models. So check for the defogger. WetWilly |
Re: is it a z
I have a 93 Shabah and i know its not a Z but you were referring to another package i guess... you said there was an MX? What all does that consist of? I know pictures will help but if i can give you my hull number can you tell me anything about it that way? Sorry i am very new to the Mariah and boating period for that matter. But wow they are beautiful boats there was nothing else in that year range or price range that compared to the boat i just bought!
My hull # is- MAB----93 |
Re: is it a z
Hi Irace82,
Go to the "Original Mariah Boats, Inc." forum and look under the sub forum, "Original Mariah Manuals and Supplements", here you will find a 1993 Mariah brochure with pictures and details of your MX 198 Shabah as well as the other 93 models, standard and optional features, colors and a story about Mariah and how your boat was constructed. Very informative reading! As for your hull ID, here is an excellent post by ShabahZ250 which breaks it down for you. Click here WetWilly |
Re: is it a z
SA Charlie, Your boat is definately a 1993 Z Model based on the Hull ID #. Mariah shipped your boat in Oct. of 92.

Re: is it a z
There were just the 2 models, the MX Pkg. which would be the base model and the Z Pkg.

Re: is it a z
Any idea when this info will be available? I will be picking up the boat I just purchased, but I would love to be able to distinguish before hand.. I keep trying to find information on it, but it turns out not many of you guys have the Mariah Shabah 183C which is what I bought. It is a 2000 with 95 hours on it. I got it for $8500 CDN but now I am looking for a trailer so I can pick it up from the Marina. The owner tells me it has the depth sounder, the compas a radio, etc. But from the brochures I have it is tough to tell if it is a Z or not.. The serial number is MAB---00. I know the original owner (hence the decision to purchase unseen) but it would be great to know exactly what it is.. Thanks!!! Oh yeah and if any of you guys have a 183C I would love to see some pics. I do know that the boat has the super sport interior in it. :rolling_laugh:

I strongly recommend becoming a contributing member, the information available would answer many of your questions and assist you in maintaining and keeping your Mariah in top form! As a contributing member, you would have access to the 1993 Mariah Brochure and in it you will find a list of standard and optional equipment for the MX and the "Z" models. You would also have access to a growing library of information including the history and making of a Mariah, manuals, most brochures including the 1993 models, wiring diagrams, and all sorts of information relevant to your Shabah, the stern drives and equipment. Click here to see what each level has to offer. If you need any assistance with becoming a member, let me know, WetWilly |
Re: is it a z
Hi 22empire,
Please look at the third post of this thread, I explain to Irace82 how to identify a "Z" model. It's the defogger, this piece of equipment seems to be consistent to the "Z" models only and as far as I know, was not offered as an option for the standard models. WetWilly |
Re: is it a z
I looked up the Hull ID # & it is not a Z Model.

Re: is it a z
Does any body know if the 183C came with the adjustable drivers seat?

No problem with the bucket, they are still there. But I am a big fella that needs some room. I was worried that there wasn't much behind the wheel. Like I said I haven't had mine out on the water yet..
