re: Best Offshore Center Console

i dont think you can say that any one boat is "best". Lots of companies make a damn fine boat. Lots of companies make just ok boats. Just like anything else you gotta figure out whats most important to you and go from there. As one quality increases, like speed, you will always sacrifice another, like ride. I have been out in the gulf on boats built by Contender, Twin-vee, Stamas, Hydra-Sports, and Venture. I would have to say my favorite was the 34 Venture although it seemed a little underpowered and probably could have used a bigger fuel tank but we were pushing it at 120 miles out on an overnighter.
