Since 1902

Ventnor Boat Works- Antique Reproduction Mahogany Boat Builder- hand crafts antique reproduction mahogany boats of distinct opulence and classical antique styling's, furnished  in a far superior custom boat of elegance and luxury.

Let Ventnor Boat Works welcome you into a group of a discriminatory few, who now possess a truly exceptional watercraft unto a class of its own...

Inspired by the past... dedicated to the future.

Ventnor, like other companies with deep pioneering spirit and radical design firsts similar to the "Tucker Torpedo" automobile, the "Beechcraft Stagerwing" aircraft and the "Indian Chief" motorcycle, were ahead of their time and did not fully capture the buying public's imagination during the 1940's. However, today all are among the world's most prized and cherished collector possessions. During those glory years, the Ventnor fin treatment was designed strictly for snob appeal since it didn't make the boat go faster, but it certainly made it look like it could!

 

The Ventnor 20's beautilful profile with fin...

 

The new Ventnor Vagabond is now built using the latest materials and building methods to increase longevity, reduce maintenance and improve performance. It is a voluptuous sculpture. It is a beautiful statement of the Fabulous Forties art form and, as such, is absolutely gorgeous.

In essence, when you order a modern Ventnor classic, you will receive an eye-catching piece of the past as well as the convenience and peace of mind that goes with owning a thoroughly up-to-date craft. The modern Ventnor offers an unparalleled opportunity to bring back the past.

The higher your expectations... the fewer your choices.

IN THIS ERA of gun-sprayed fiberglass, injection-molded plastic, vinyl/plastic upholstery, decals and graphics, pot-metal or plastic hardware... Your choice is now reduced only
to which color "Jelly-Bean", "Me-Too", boat you can choose from... until now, that is.


Ventnor -with gem quality molded in finishes, hand-rubbed mahogany and glove-leather interiors- plus, solid chrome-brass or stainless steel custom fabricated hardware, place her
in a category of one.

We do not need to discuss such plebeian issues as horsepower, speed, fuel consumption and price. Ventnor remains a category of one; filling a niche beyond luxury.

For a customer purchasing this vessel, there is no comparable choice - over four months of meticulous craftsmanship is apparent.

All in all, it is very much a matter of building to standards -not to price- for buyers whose sights are set on distinction, not cost. Ultimate exclusivity is priceless.

This all new version of the Ventnor Vagabond now completes our vow to fill, and even deepen, the opulent footprint of Ventnors in the past.

Your dream is our pleasurable command...
