Enjoyed video! Only comment I will make is that this VX20 is actually a 21 foot boat! So comparing apples to apples, the badging can be misleading sometimes.

I'm thinking Ken is digging this boat when he said there may be 3 parts to it unlike 2 for all the previous.

Very nice boat and that one he tested looks very expensive with the options it has. I’m not very familiar with Venus but it definitely looks like a very expensive, premium priced boat. I’m not crazy about the looks but it looks like a very well thought out and very nice boat. Interested in hearing the rest of the review.

Looks like a premium boat with a lot of great features. I could do with out the handicap railing though.

Too bad they’ll be out of business by next summer. Right TFF?

Good video, like the part about the way they mount the shallow water anchors. that makes a lot of sense. I've noticed what you mentioned about the current powerpole mounting system.

The boat looks like a big water boat. I’d like see the the draft with 3/4 of fuel and a full live well. Lord know knows I love to fish shallow!

I think that boat looks cool as hell. Looking forward to rest of the review. Definitely a nice boat, I just don’t like that huge handrail or whatever it is. To me it just messes up the whole boat but other than that I can’t say anything negative about it. They all have their little things that someone’s not going to like. I looked a few up online and they are definitely a premium priced boat but that’s obviously their target market. I have not seen one locally which is kinda surprising. I do think some of these new boats are causing the other manufacturers to step up their game or get left behind which is a good thing.

I'm with you on the handrail... The rest I love
I wasn't sure about the front until I rode and saw how I effects the front deck and trolling motor position

I recently read the handrail can be optionally deleted.
