Venture Boats - New 27'

[JDBer94]

I have always been a big fan of the Venture 34' along with the Jupiter 31'. I just checked the Venture web site and noticed that it indicated "on the horizon new Venture 27." Does anyone have any news, details, etc.

Here is the web site link: http://www.venturemarine.com/

I am a production manager for venture marine and the new 27 will be shown at the boat show in october at ft lauderdale show if you have any ququestion feel free to ask it is a nice lookin boat

[JDBer94]

Thanks.

I received info on the boat about a week ago. Overall it looks very sweet on paper. The retail price however is a bit extreme, even for Venture. I'm looking forward to seeing the 27 and Bahama 31 at the Lauderdale show.

I don't know how accurate this is, but a dealer told me $140K well equipped with twin Verado 200s...

they will sell very few at 140k...that is just plain outrageous...

I was just thinking to myself, what the boating market really needs is another medium length center console for $140,000. Just not enough of them around.

JD,
Thanks for the BHamas 31 link. Will the builder be at the show. Looks nice

[Getaway39]

All I have to say is that you get what you pay for. If the finish means anything to you, buy a Venture...If not, buy what ever else! Trust me, I've been on the competition and they just don't compare! You can say all you want about the ride, and I'll be the first to admit that it may not be the best in it's class, but it's at the top!

a BUDDY OF mine bought a 31, wished he never did.
