I Spoke with Jim Martin of Donzi Manufacturing today. He had an idea that he thought would help out some Donzi owners and the factory at the same time. The factory has,at various times,some items that they do not use anymore. This happens for a number of reasons i.e. model change, vendor changes, ect.These are all new parts with most still in the original boxes.
Working with the Registry the factory could offer to sell these items to the Registry members/donzi owners on Donzi.net with the the registry keeping a percentage for helping. Jim has a list of parts now and they will be doing inventory the end of the month so it could change. He thinks that they will sell the parts for substantially less than retail. All the factory wants to do is re-coup their costs. Jim said that Donzi Marine would rather help a Donzi owner than wholesale out to a surplus house.
At this time we do not have a clue as to what the final list will be, so please do not ask.
He did say that the items would be limited. once they are gone, they are gone. A little bird told me that they might have some swim ladders that were made specially for classics but never put on them. Also some old volvo/mercruiser props, stuff for cruisers etc.
Just keep your spare cash ready in case you see soething you want. I will be building a page for Donzi Marine with thumbnail photos of the items that they will be selling. It will be using paypal for purchasing.
You won't believe this. He also said that they found a benchseat Hornet hull in storage that was never titled.
Just kiddin' about the hornet. Stay Tuned! :D
