I do have a 1964? 16' I might be able to part with!!!
Red with white stripe and the coolist scoop, LHD(I have a 86 MINX and a 22' Sea Ray PACHANGA) how many do I need? The deck is a little soft but usable. The gas tank is good and the motor runs, the shop its at says it needs rings. Its a 351. I have a new Built Rite interior I had made for it last year still in the box (red and white candystripe) all this and a shorelander trailer. I will try to post pix if you dont see them and are interested email me at dcarone@upstaging.com and I will get them to you that way and we can talk $$$

Hey Guys!!!
I was out of town at the end of last week. I did go see the 68 in Kearny....boat needs a lot of TLC! I am pondering over it!! Do have a question though...what do you think about putting a 454 in the 18' Donzi? Sound crazy but I have a big block with only 12 hours on it! I have a weight difference...110lbs. So what do you guys think?

Donzi66, There is a 79 22' Criterion for sale in the local paper in the Point Pleasant, N.J. area. The ad says it has new gauges, Gil exhaust and needs motor work. $12,000 or B/O. Phone number is 732-899-1778. Could be a good project for you if your looking for a Donzi to put that big block in. If your interested I could try to take a look at it for you. As far as putting a big block in an 18 I think you'll be sitting pretty low in the water. I have an 67 18 2+3 with a hi-perf small block{for sale by the way} and the boats just don't have a lot of freeboard. Adding another 140 pounds will put the transom pretty low. Eddie.
