Interior design??

Post by namrimus »

Does anyone have any pictures of what the interior of a 1973 Venture looked like? Or, even better, pictures of remodels that have been done to the interior.

My 24 is wide open for plowing new ground. The only thing remaining is a piece of a table that is still loosely clinging to the hull.

Thanks for any assistance.

There are more pics of the V25 interior on the net. Cabin is just a foot longer on same hull. The V24 "galley" was pretty basic. I started a V 24, 224 Yahoo group last Dec and it has a few pics. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Venture24/

I think all of the early macs had a similar layout. Long settee to the port side, V berth, head compartment juse behind V berth on starboard side, and then a dinette just aft of the head compartment. You should be able to get a good idea of the original layout by looking at the contour of the fiber glass pan liner. Otherwise, just make it how you want it. Use your imagination and address your needs any way you wish. No need to be a slave to the original, unless dictated by the contours of the pan liner.
