I have a full Ray Marine C80 set up with auto pilot and radar. My question is, if I want to put in a Garmin chart plotter will my Ray Marine auto pilot work with it? I’m assuming it’s in NMEA 2000 and will be compatible? 2008 23 Venture, 2008 Raymarine package.

I’m heading to Galveston tomorrow to do a quick cruise/fishing trip down to Port Aransas or maybe all the way to Port Isabell/South Padre. Any intel in a good marina to launch and leave truck and trailer for a week? Might need a slip for a night on either end.

Thinking about making the round trip in November. Any insights or experiences?

Port side slider latch for 2008 23 Venture? I’ll try to post a pic. Mine flew off while I was closing the window, it sank. [/img]

OK brats,I have A recurring problem with my Suzuki DF 150 fuel injected 4 stroke. 2008 model on a 23 Venture. I’ve been in 3 shops a total of 5 times and spent over $2800 so far. The engine will start just fine, and run for about five or 10 minutes at 3800 to 5500 RPM then it will start to...

Pulled in to Hinton marina and parked next to Tom and Joyce on C Otter. Great folks, all knowing St Johns river Gurus! Great meeting y’all! We’ll see you on the water again. I’ll post pics in my album since I can5 figure out how to do it here![/img]

I’ve got about 12 days off starting Monday 4/23. I’m in Dallas TX. I need a good “river loop” or best coastal cruise that I can do without a lot of planning and prep! I have a kid in Tuscaloosa, maybe Black Warrior? TennTom? GCICW? Any and all Brat suggestions considered, the 23 Venture is...

Seems like every bass boat and wakeboard boat at the DFW boat show has SeaDek everywhere. I really like the colors, teak look, cushioning effect etc.. Planning the cockpit, top of cockpit gunwales, and up the main cabin aisle. Also a helm pad. I searched archives, not much there.

Looking for any hints or heads up for this trip I'm putting together. I'm not sure if I'll go South-North or North -South, any preferences? Giving myself 6 days, updating my Raymarine C80 charts, got Skipper Bobs guide, Waterway guide, Ipad Nav apps and iPhone, VHF, autopilot, What's there to...

Any Brats gonna be on the lake? The girlfriend and I will probably launch at Bullfrog in the 23 Venture "Easy Victor" and randomly cruise north and south.

Here's the scenario.... 2008 Suzuki EFI 4stroke <100 hrs Run regularly Starts and runs perfectly for about 9 mins at cruise of 3600-4200RPM Then, RPM drops and engine stumbles down to about 2200 RPM. Runs fine 2200RPM or less. If I shut engine off for a minute or two, it'll run fine again for...

Brought the 23 Venture and my teenage daughter to Oauchita for a few days of island hopping and to escape the 106 degree heat in Dallas. Pictures to follow, or in Easy Victors' album!!!

Hey Brats, What has your experience been with King Canvas? Quality of workmanship? Customer service? Overall design/build of tops? Shopping locally and nationwide for 23 Venture top.

Took the "New" 23 Venture to Possum Kingdom Lake west of DFW for a short 2 day trip. My observations: the Venture tows very easily behind my 1/2 ton Ram Diesel. This boat draws LOTS of attention here in Texas. People were cruising up to us all day asking about the boat and admiring it. Boat...

I need ideas for a 23 Venture, but any and all pictures are appreciated. I've looked at several Brats boats in the photo albums, lots of great ideas. I'm thinking a top that carries the roof line like Will-C, and one that covers the lazarrettes also. What say the C Brats?

After an exhaustive nationwide odyssey, I've purchased my first C Dory! Facilitated by Marc at Wefings (I'll take that free dinner and oysters, beer etc. anytime Marc) I purchased a beautiful 2008 23 Venture from a couple in Washington that were kind enough to deliver the boat to my door in...

I'm going to buy a 23 Venture, but the banks are all pretty adamant that the loan value of a 2009 23 Venture including tandem trailer, is about $39,000 give or take $2000. The problem is, every seller recently is asking $55-$60,000. If they're actually selling for that amount, I'll pay it, but...

Ok, I've seen every boat listed here and on Boattrader, yacht world etc.... Some great boats listed, and I'm considering a few. The perfect boat would be: 2006 or newer Trailer with brakes Single or twins Camper canvas Shore power Special consideration given to: Air conditioning Auto pilot...

Left Gulfport MS this morning in my 92 Whaler Montauk, the forecast called for fair skies all week. As I waited out the first Level 5 thunderstorms, I planned the rest of my trip. Left Gulfport, sat out storms in Ocean Springs MS and ended up in Gulf Shores AL. At LuLu's having a few cocktails...
