2008-2009 Monterey® 278 SC No Arch Model Specific Details: We have the OEM canvas for this boat, but it is not in our online database yet. Please Email with Year, Make and Model for information and pricing. Monterey® originally offered the 2008-2009 278 SC No Arch in Sunbrella® fabric.
Product Details: Zips onto back of OEM zippered Bimini-Top (Not included) and typically goes back at an angle to the Transom area. Curtain snaps to boat with Stainless steel Canvas-Snaps (which are included but not installed in the canvas) or Bunjis in some cases. Let us know if you need SS Snap-Stud-Screws to screw into the boat. The boat manufacturer and RNR-Marine™ do not recommend operating the boat with the aft-curtain in place, due to dangerous fuel and exhaust fumes.
Monterey® Factory Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) Notes:For Ameritex® (Not Great Lakes or BLI®) canvas, covers & frames: A laser-engraved, black rubber tag is sewn into every Ameritex® (we no longer make Taylor-Made®) original-equipment canvas or cover (a laser printed sticker is on each frame), and the only way we are able to manufacture the exact canvas, cover or frame specific to your boat is if you provide the part number (P/N) on that tag. We will require the P/N (112350xxx and Greater) and DT date code fromthe tag (or sticker). WE WILL MAKE THIS EXACT PART NUMBER, so there are NO RETURNS, REFUNDS or EXCHANGES. Zippers on OEM Monterey® canvas are size #8 (6 teeth/inch). Monterey® installed the snaps in their boats, canvas and covers at their factory, so we cannot install the canvas snaps for you because we do not have locations (see Canvas/Snap Installation to learn about installing snaps). We can only sell canvas and covers direct for Monterey® boats over 2 years old. Monterey® OEM canvas part number scheme: tags, where [xxxx] identifies the canvas piece and [ccc] is the color code. Monterey® Hull Identification Number (HIN)= RGFsssssmbyy , where [yy] = model year.
Factory OEM canvas: Ameritex® tags
TIP: Be sure to check your existing (and adjacent connecting) canvas pieces (and frames) for:
White Ameritex® tags (the tags are approx. 2-3 inches x 4-5 inches),
The Ameritex® logo embossed on the heads of the stainless canvas snaps,
The Zipper Size listed above (#8 in most cases) on all zippers.
Factory Original-Equipment-Manufacturer (OEM) patterned for the {2008,2009} Monterey® 278 SC No Arch: 278SC cuddy, No Arch or Tower.
Will ONLY fit and/or zip to other Factory OEM canvas/frames with Ameritex® tags ("cc" is the color code).
ONLY zips to Factory OEM Bimini-Top and Side-Curtains.
Verify AMERITEX or TAYLOR-MADE tags.
Verify that your old and mating canvas has AMERITEX® or TAYLOR-MADE® on the tags and embossed on the Canvas Snaps AND the correct factory OEM Zipper Size (#8 = 6 teeth/inch in most cases).
Stainless steel Canvas-Snaps are included but NOT installed in the canvas (to allow for a perfect fit), so a Snap-Tool Will be required.
