Alway brought us back! Enjoy! It is a 5.0 ltr 8 Cylinder, 220 HP. I had her up to 54 mph on the test run before the dealer asked that I "save some gas" in case we opted not to buy it adn I was in a 35 mpn limit zone [:$]. She handles like a dream!

CECAA850 Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Nice boat! My friends father had a Glastron with a Volvo motor when I was in high-school. We had a blast on that thing. Lots of good memories. His father however called it his "hole in the water you pour money into"! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg928gts Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 08 Blue Water Venture 5.0 Volvo Gl SX I/O Great looking boat. Can't wait to get mine out this summer. How long is the boating season where you live? Here in Maine it's too short, really about four months (June-Sept). That size boat is perfect. It's big enough to be comfortable, but still easy to pull up on a sandy beach for a BBQ, and easy enough to tow to different lakes every weekend.

Ironsave Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Man.... when I was a 14 yr old kid; my dad had bought a new Bayliner 17ft Capri Bowrider. (1986 ish) It had a 4 cylinder and I believe it was a Penta drive..... 54mph? Geez.... that's quick.... Anything over 40 mph felt scary fast! Nice boat!
