I know that it was a Jet boat they produced for a short while that ended production, I think in 96. I am pretty sure I have to find the old brochure on my 16. But some guy I once new had one. He used to come over to me at Catus Island because he had a Donzi. I am pretty sure she carried 4 persons at 750lbs limit. Scot ask the dealer they made them when the Millers were there.

Bateman had one. I don't know the capasity but you could see Bill and at least two good looking blonds and a brunette on most weekends at Cocktail cove on lake Lanier. Yes it was a sport jet.

Had one of these strange little buggers run by me the other day.Friend of mine from Kentucky says an old guy(we are both in our 50s so he must be oooold)has one that he wants to sell.Its in absolutely mint condition and has a new trailer with it.Thanks to this board I know what its worth,and I can buy it for substantially under that,but Im hesitant to buy it for resale because I just dont know if there is a market for the thing.What do you guys think?No matter what a blue book says,if you have no interest,it aint going to get sold!.......just.....careful.....ol red!

As Randy said I had one of those jets. Neat boat that would jump and spin just like a jet ski. Had it over 10' up jumping wakes. Little hard on the back if you didn't time the landing right.
It was rated for 4 people and 750 lbs. Mercury sportjet power. Mine had the 90hp in 94 then Mercury came out with the 120. Would top out at 38 with the blondes on board!!! They really liked the sundeck feature.

Just got back from Georgia for Thanksgiving, lotta fun! This is correct, 4 peoploe/750 lbs., Merc SportJet (90, and later 120 HP). Took one to the keys when they first came out, whatta blast! We must of had that thing about 5 or 6 feet in the air off a wake from a sportfish.
