I need to know the value of my C-Dory 29' Venture. It is in excellent shape. I have not found any others to compare this boat to, so finding a value is hard. Any help would be appreciated.

More info may help in identifying your boat to begin to be able to give a value. I wasn't aware that they made a 29' Venture. I thought that 26' was the largest Venture. Anyway more info would be helpful, such as year, electronics package, trailer, canvas, etc, etc.

Hi-

I used to have a 22 foot c-dory that I liked very much. I have moved on to a different boat at this time. My buddy, however is looking at a 29 C-Dory Venture and has asked my advice. I don't know the first thing about this model. It is a 220 HP yanmar inboard diesel. The intended use would be cruising/fishing 3-4 people in Prince William Sound area of Alaska.

Does anyone out there know much about these boats? Ride, towability, strengths, weeknesses, etc.

The boat is a 2008 with 30 hours on it and a 5212 garmin setup.

They are asking $119,000

Thanks in advance


so this was 2012 prices.

I own hull #3 of the 29 Venture (C-Belle). I've had her for 4+ years now and am very happy cruising with this boat. I don't own a trailer as we keep her in the water so I can't tell you what it's like towing her. She has the 220 Yanmar, bow thruster, no stern thruster. No generator or air conditioning. We cruise at between 7 and 9 knots. We currently have her insured for $100,000 cdn.

There was one which sold for a bargain price. It had been for sale for a long time. However for the most part I think the 120K figure is not far off for a well maintained boat in today's market.
