Re: 1999 Ventura 20 Advice

Appreciate the information and I agree mine also does have a wet bilge. We had a great time with it out on the lake today but I did have to give the bilge pump a workout. I plugged the two thru hull drains in the engine well and I'm curious if that will take care of the problem. I think the seal aro...

Re: 1999 Ventura 20 Advice

Hey Tim—one of the first things I'd like to do is mount a fuel-water separator filter.

I need to order new cushions for my 1979 22' Revenge V-22. I tried Specialty Marine but they do not carry cushions for that model. Can anyone recommend a vendor for them?

Thanks!

Thanks for the replies. We test drove the boat last weekend and we liked it. The 2000 200 Optimax has me somewhat worried. The VENTURA 20 looks like it has had some fiberglass and gelcoat work on the hull, but supposedly that was from too many beachings during its early years. Tim— I was able to see...

1999 Ventura 20 Advice

Hello. After years of owning, maintaining and enjoying classic Whalers (1978 Sport 13, 1979 Revenge 22, 1983 GTX-18) my wife and I are looking at a newer Whaler, specifically a 1999 Ventura 20. I think we would both enjoy it for fishing and recreation. Plus, it’s a Whaler. The problem is that I know...
