A few years ago when I bought my Donzi I had called them to inquire about parts I needed since they were built about 60 miles from my home I decided to see if they offered tours of the factory. They were very nice and I made arrangements to go there. It was a great experience since I had never seen how boats are manufactured. Everyone there was really nice and answered a lot of questions and even offered history and insight into what Donzi is all about. I was also impressed with the professional attitude displayed and the attention to detail and quality they impart on every boat built. I also need some help figuring out what my boat might be worth it is a 1977 18' Donzi Classic. The boat has been well maintained and is white with orange stripe on top and the sides are 1/2 orange and 1/2 white. I was surprised at what others on this site are asking for these boats (not totally surprised they are great boats) and I was wondering what fair market value is. Also it has a 350 Chevy original motor with a Volvo Penta outdrive all original paperwork (parts manual, receipts etc.). I noticed one ad for a very rare 400hp model that Donzi made how do I know if I have that? Thanks....
