2026 Avalon Venture 85 Quad Lounge - 23 FT
Description
Meet the ** 2026 Avalon Venture 85 Quad Lounge**—a **23.4-foot pontoon** that’s basically a floating invitation to bring your favorite people and your best “we should do this more often” energy. Finished in ****, it has a clean, confident look on the water—bold enough to stand out at the dock, smooth enough to feel timeless when the sun hits it just right.
At **281 inches (7.1 m)** long with a **101-inch (2.6 m) beam**, this Venture 85 feels roomy without feeling like you’re piloting a barge. The platform is built on **two aluminum pontoons** (each **25 inches** in diameter), giving you that classic pontoon stability—easy to step around, easy to relax on, and easy to spend an entire afternoon pretending you’ll head in “after one more lap.”
This is a boat designed for actual hanging out. With capacity for **up to 11 passengers**, it’s ready for a full crew—family, friends, neighbors who “just want to see it for a second,” and whoever brought the snacks. And because comfort is the whole point, the seating layout leans into lounging: **four cockpit sofas** set the vibe for conversation and cruising, plus **six open-bow seats** that keep the front of the boat feeling like the best seat in the house. There’s also a **cockpit chair** for when someone wants their own space without leaving the party.
Up at the helm, it’s all about simple, comfortable control. You get a **single helm chair** paired with **remote outboard steering control**, making it easy to guide the day—whether you’re drifting along a shoreline or lining up for that perfect slow pass past your friends. Overhead, a **Bimini top** brings the shade when you want it, turning bright midday cruises into a cool, laid-back ride.
Underfoot, **woven cockpit flooring** gives the deck a refined feel—soft on bare feet and welcoming when everyone’s moving around. And when it’s time to set the scene for lunch, cards, or sunset drinks, the **cockpit table** is ready to become the boat’s unofficial headquarters.
Of course, no great day on the water is complete without a soundtrack. This Avalon comes with a **Fusion®** audio system with **Bluetooth®**, so your playlist comes with you—whether that means mellow cruising tunes, upbeat dockside favorites, or whatever helps you stretch an hour into an entire evening.
Practical details are handled, too. You’ve got a **25-gallon (94.6 L) fuel capacity**, with fuel level shown via a **gauge**, so you can keep your plans on track without guessing. The boat’s **dry weight is 2,150 lbs (975.2 kg)**, and it’s rated for a **2,150 lb** weight capacity—solid numbers for a pontoon that’s built for people, comfort, and gear. Power-wise, it’s designed for flexibility, with a **minimum recommended 10 hp** and a **maximum recommended 140 hp**, letting you tailor the setup to the way you actually like to boat.
If you’re looking for a pontoon that puts “good times” first—space to spread out, seating that invites you to stay awhile, and a look that pops in ****—this **2026 Avalon Venture 85 Quad Lounge** is ready to turn ordinary weekends into your new favorite tradition.
