Re: 1973 ventura 1
Scott, Welcome to the forum. After you have a few posts under your belt, you will be able to post some pictures. We love pictures of streams on here. Make sure to check the core and transom on it. If it hasn't been done and documented, it will need to be done. Should be a fun boat for you. I am about to begin a restore on a Ventura II, as soon as I complete the transom replace and splashwell delete on the Vulture. Love to see what it looks like. I can't comment on speed from the 115, there are a lot of variables. Bill
