I have been in the heating and cooling buisness for all my life, Starting Feb 1st of this year I will be working full time selling boats. The boat I love to talk about the most and hopefully sell enough of (DONZI) I want to thank the folks at Typhoon Performance for giving me a chance to show them how my love DONZIS can turn them a nice profit! http://www.donzi.net/photos/fcivitano29.jpg

Good luck being around something you love so much and relaying that to future Donzi owners.

You can speak from experience when you tell customers what a Donzi is about.

go to it Frank.. anything's better than the a/c world.. I know I've been in it since '76 with the TRANE Co. now & that's better than a contractor ,but it's still the same stuff.

GOOD LUCK!!! :D :D

the rat.. eek!

Congrats Frank! It's great to read about someone I've met having a dream come true. Now, will your 26ZX or that wild 38ZR be coming up to 1000 Islands? Don't get me wrong, I like both, but I haven't ridden in a 38ZR yet and it's on my wish list!

On another thought, any chance you all will pay $50,000 to a guy to do boat clean up and maintenance? wink

River Rat and Scott, thank you. We just sold the 1st 38ZR, hopefully we will have another, I will be bringing my 26ZX and my sons 16 maybe if we have one Typhoon Performance Marine can bring up a 38ZR ?

Good for you,Frank,you won't regret it. After 35 years of being a boat dealer I still smile every morning as I go into the store. Life is good when you have a job you love. You won't get rich but you will enjoy the journey. Good luck.

Heating and Cooling loss. Donzi gain.It will be nice for you to get off the rooftops(snow,rain,sleet,heat). I got out of the trade for a year but I missed the freedom too much.(you know what I am talking about)Sounds like a dream job. Best of luck to you....Ed

Frank: Good for you, it will be nice to see someone who loves Donzis selling them, In my experience, Donzi dealers who really love the brand and boats in general are disappearing.

Hey Frank Congratulations! See you at the AC show.
I just received a new computer at work-I'm computer illiterate-my boss set it up, and he used "Donzi" as my pass word and put a 16' Donzi as a screen saver...He's caught me on this site a # of times, he just wants a ride in my Magnum this year. wink
Best of luck with your new position!
