Recently saw a Boston Whaler dual console - bowrider type of hull. Looked smaller then the ventura 20. Did whaler ever make a smaller bowrider?

Slight correction to Tom’s post above. Boston Whaler is not offering the Ventura series in the 2010 lineup.

I have the new 2010 small catalog.

The Ventura is not listed in this catalog.

I haven't been able to get my hands on the large catalog yet. When I requested a full size catalog from Boston Whalers website, I was sent the small one.
Bummer.

Maybe they maintain the listing on the web site to help dealers who have 2009 or older Ventura 180's still in stock?

Seems odd that the Whaler web master would be so asleep-at-the-keyboard....

That’s my guess, Tom. The Whaler salesman who sold me my Ventura also confirmed that the dual consoles had been discontinued.
