sold my donzi 16 in the spring of 07 spent the summers of 07 thru 09 on my friends rides. attended a few donzi events boatless and had a chance to pick up some nice classics at a good prices. for whatever reasons most of the deals didn't pan out. I went with a friend in fall of 08 to look at a boat on long island he passed on it . In the fall of 09 I said I wonder if that boat was still for sale. it was at a much lower price than it was in 08. I borrowed a trailer and we went out to get her. we floated her off her trailer and onto the trailer I borrowed my friend pulled the boat back with his truck and I pulled the empty old trailer back. the old trailer lost some parts on the LIE and the cross bronx. the plan was if it fell apart it was staying where ever it was. we got it to my house floated it off and back onto the old trailer until a new trailer is made for it.
I am glad the deals on the other boats fell thru, I am now the proud owner of
a 1968 Donzi Benchseat Hornet hull 19H-38

I had a 24' Superboat the past few years (purchased from a family member), it had a 300 Promax. Boat really became a part of the family. I grew up boating on Long Island, but my wife never boated, so when we bought the 24'...there was some growing pains as far as enjoying it (we also had a baby about a year earlier). But as time wore on, she really grew to love the boat, and so did my son. At first, getting him on was a crying fit, but then it turned into "ok, I am up from my nap...lets go boating" . Boat was perfect for us...I had some speed for when I went alone, but we could idle around with the baby and just enjoy the beach. Late last year, we started talking about getting something bigger, because only problem was when we had company over, it got very tight on the 24' SB. About a week later I pulled into my neighbors boat slip and saw a new 30' Superboat Centerconsole docked next door....I asked if I could get on it, he took me for a ride and I was hooked on the boat. A few weeks later, I contracted with Superboat to build me a new 30 CC. I took delivery on the boat last week, and now its off to get rigged with twin 250 Mercs. Its my first 'new boat', so pretty excited.....old boat and new boat

Thats a pretty rare and sweet classic ride.
Thanks, hopefully it will let me and the wife explore some waters that were a little too big for the 16. She already likes the fact that she's facing forward
