Need suggestions 25 FT express cruiser

[doug hess]

My 1988 Ragazza 25 was just totaled in a storm. It was perfect for my 25 mph cruising needs, 2 bunks, head,stove, etc. Would appreciate suggestions and recommendations for a replacement.

I have read that the Formula, Baja and Century are in same class as Donzi. Will probably get something around 10 years old. Town mooring area limit is 25.0 foot. Perfer Merc style 350/5.7 Bravo drive. I even have old engine if needed. Your comments would are welcomed.

Thanks for the leads guys. I called one of them and it looks promising.

How do Four Winns stack up againt Donzi? In the 25 foot express cruiser group which makes are good?

Several people have suggested the ebay Donzi 25 in Algonac, Michigan. It is a real flakey deal. Every time I spoke with him the story is different. His latest listing says in past auctions the "bidder did not perform with money". Since when do bidders who have not the reserve or won pay?

Keep the leads coming. I will even consider ones without power items or needing repair. Thanks again.
