This 2012 Pioneer Venture 197 is a well-built dual console that blends the comfort of a family cruiser with the capability of a fishing boat. At just under 20 feet, it's the perfect size for cruising the ICW, sandbar days, or fishing trips.

This boat has been meticulously maintained, and it shows. The upholstery is in good condition, it is marina maintained with service records available, and flushed with fresh water after each use.

Pioneer designed the Venture series to offer more seating, storage, and versatility than a traditional center console, making it ideal for families and entertaining on the water.

Features & Included Equipment:

  • Dual Console Layout with a Walkthrough Windshield
  • Comfortable Seating with Cushions Throughout
  • Bimini Top for Shade
  • Bow and Cockpit Cover
  • Suzuki 140 4-Stroke - 450 Hours
  • 70 Gallon Fuel Tank

  • Garmin GPS / Fish Finder
  • VHF Radio
  • Sony Stereo System with 4 Speakers
  • Ritchie Compass
  • Lenco Trim Tabs
  • Rod Holders
  • Ample Storage Throughout
  • Swim Ladder
  • Bilge Pump
  • Navigation Lights
  • Anchor

Spacious enough for up to ~8 passengers and built with Pioneer's solid hull design, this boat is great for everything from cruising to tubing to fishing.

Current dry-stack storage is available for lease transfer upon purchase.
