Seafarer Ventura 5.5
Submitted by Troy Summers on Wed, 2015-06-17 00:02
Hey guys Im looking at buying a 2002 seafarer Ventura 5.5m with an 09 150 Johnson<150hrs... its looking really promising,.. covered, polished and serviced constantly.. I know Haines took over the company just after this boat was produced, but has anyone got some feedback about it... the Mrs wants it, so do I, but a decent iinvestment in a private boat, just wanna know itll be the goods when I wanna get out a bit wider

Seafarer was started back in
Seafarer was started back in the day by Lindsey Fry there boats were allways well built and solid not as popular as Haines Signature, Haines hunter or Cruise craft though i dont recall Seafarer doing major advertising like other companys.I have rebuilt a few models from the eighties just the usual stringer ,floor trany replacement could not say a bad word about them to be honest.

Check the trailer - often
Check the trailer - often single axle and underrated. Also Johnson 150 would have very low value. And why is the motor 3 years older than the hull.
