RE: Venture 60 vs 4* 60
If the Senior is a decent price I'd probably go for that one. They have a pretty good reputation from what I have read and they look much nicer than the Four Star. Top it off with the fact that they have a cowl and I'd say it looks like a great alternative. I'd do a search to see what some others have said about it to make sure it sounds like it is what you want.
