Re: Which Type of Mariah do Ii have ?
 

Hmm a Barchetta but looks from the window and trunk from the back different. Or are there different versions?

Re: Which Type of Mariah do Ii have ?
 

I'm not convinced its a Barchetta either as the Barchetta has the same style side windows that the Shabah has. I think this one is a Talari/Diablo but its odd that it doesn't match up perfectly with anything in the brochures. The model years dont match up and with the build sheet showing this boat as a '192' its really unusual. The closest i've seen is still Diablo180's 180 Diablo from 1993 as it has the same graphics and the same dash.

I'm starting to wonder if this boat was a bit of a hybrid of parts that was put together and shipped to Europe for sale?

also think that there was no name for Europe versions. Therefore, only the 192 is rather worked with us here with numbers as names. See Mercedes E500, GL500, BMW 3,5,7.
In the construction plan was also
- Do not install bow, side & aft curtains
- Swiss lights / oil pan
-Gas tank access plate / fuel shutoff switch
Gas fill hoses outside of bulkhead
-Do not install windshield or outdrive

I think it is a mixture of several versions for the European market. But I find the way it is, it looks really good.
Especially it drives really nice, I like it. So far the best boat I had.

The whole week we have permanent rain, and it's cold. Starting next week, it will be better again.
I only have pictures from my workshop where I built the boat.

That boat is in very nice condition! :wink_thumbup:

Re: Which Type of Mariah do Ii have ?
 

Looks like a Diablo to me! The bucket seats are pre-1994. Are we sure this isn't a 1993 Diablo?

Polo is like a hunter green color.............

Re: Which Type of Mariah do Ii have ?
 

That's exactly what i think it is. I really think that this boat was possibly a partially finished one sitting at the Mariah factory that was put together a year or so later with available parts and shipped to Europe for sale. Either way, the OP has done a terrific job of bringing it back into pristine condition.
