The love of my life!

Having just taken possession of my boat after the seatrial some people at the dock with a canoe said: “now that’s a fishing machine, wow and they handle so well in rough water with that deep-V”. Enjoying the complement I didn’t feel like correcting them. The next day on the south Puget Sound...

So glad my wife is excited :-). The boat ran flawlessly. There are a couple items that need attention but they are very minor. Our trip to the south sound was wonderful. I will post some pics in the morning, just washed the boat down and desalinated her. Ready for some sleep!

Mike you got it. :-). the side steps take up 10 inches or more into the beck deck. they are nice in that you could build and put pillows there to sit on them. I think what I will look for are those chairs with a single back leg and two front legs. I think this will work best. IE tripod...

Harvey - yep it opens :-)

Hi guys, So one down side to my new boat - It has these awesome side steps that are larger than previous versions of the Venture (you can open the hatches and store stuff or turn them into fish wells). I love this feature but one thing that is clear to me is that my plans of having chairs...

Call Ryan at Sportcraft in Portland http://www.sportcraftmarina.com/ he has one that has been sitting on his lot for a bit - it is new tho - he may be motivated to sell it.

I'll probably get shot for saying this but I love my little buddy heater. Just need to make sure you have a window open and a working CO2 monitor. I have never had an issue (it supposedly will shut off due to CO2 and is rated for indoor use) but worth it for safety. Also I have always kept my...

I will be on the water in my brand new 23 Venture. She is beautiful!! Thanks for the hard work! You guys rock, delivered on time. No complaints. I love the new articulating windshield wipers, I didn't expect them and they look awesome as well as the cubby side steps. Nice surprise! H

Hi guys, Well my dealer could not get the Mantus anchors from regular suppliers. Not really a big deal. I did speak with Mantus and we chatted a bit and they said they would love to setup a PNW dealership. If anyone knows of anyone or wants to do this here is the email of the guy to talk to...

Congrats Jason on your boat. She is a beaut!!. I think trailerable vs not is all about lifestyle choices. In my case I am locked-in in a sense on the Columbia river. I love the river but you go east/west on the Columbia and north/south on the Willamette. My cruising space unless I want to...
