Folks,

This boat is as nice as they come. I did an informal survey on this boat for Jim when he was first interested in it. It was stored in the hayloft of an old barn in Vermont! She is truly a gem, and the asking price is a giveaway. It's better than most new boats on the showroom floor.

No exagerations here, Jim's Minx is as nice as it gets. It makes my Minx look like a booger.

Thanx guys, it's really a cool all_around_boat... depending on where I score the upsized replacement, I could help with delivery issues.

Jim, How has the black color held up? Is there any chalking on the boat? Any idea of the total hours? TY, CMC

TY, the black color has held up surprising well. I had it buffed and detailed and it came out pretty awesome for an '87 vintage. No chalking. Hourmeter shows about 220 something, and i'm sure it is right..

Hmmmmmm.... sunny day, clear calm water, when was that picture taken...... January 2003 ???

It's a poor attempt at humor, but I'm shell-shocked watching what is happening to you guys. The weather is front page, lead story stuff up here.
Be careful down there.

ANybody that has seen Jim's stuff knows how immaculate inside and out his boats are. Pictures do not do it justice, this is an absolutely beautiiful boat. Good luck selling Jim, I just wish I had the $$$ right now to put it in my driveway.

Jim can't believe someone has not snagged that beauty, I drool when I check this post. There were two real nice ones at the 1000 Is, Kenny with blue and honey and Tim with a red one. Did quite a bit of running with them, between the windshield and the raised aft deck they have a really nice unique look.

Jim is in Miami. I'm towing a friends boat to Miami from Maine tomorrow and will be heading back empty. If you strike a deal with Jim, I can tow it back to Jersey for a reasonable fee.

Give me a call if I can be of service to you.

Jimmy... Kurt hauled this great boat down from Lake Winni for me a couple years ago, he knows the boat, and the route. Can't ask for a better scenario than this.

Well since you supposed True Donzi Afficionados have not scooped this great boat up it is going out to the general populous, I will be posting it on the major commercial Internet sites. I still hope one of our members grabs this one, being factory black it is a rare offering and one of only twenty five ever built!

I unwrapped it from storage yesterday... the hours are 209.3, less than I thought. Started right up. I lifted the risers and checked everything as a pre-caution, replaced the riser gaskets, and added new blue silicone exhaust hose. I am going to buff and detail it before the Dora Show next week. Ready to go. I'll throw in a mint pair of 4" SS Corsa mufflers to the buyer. I can help with some delivery.

JimJim, Rose and I have been contemplating buying a Minx for a while now. We are in Victoria Canada right now for a few days before picking up a motorhome and heading home. We stay in Titusville and will be home in about 2 weeks. After seeing George Carter's finally completed beauty, we need one to go play with him. Yours being black we wouldn't get them too mixed up. Then Cuda could bring his and wouldn't that be a picture? Could you give us a call at your pleasure? Did you take it to Mt. Dora? How did it run? Tom 256-777-0844

DONZI Racer, where in Victoria are you ??? Since it is a small town and I live here I am pretty sure I could find you ;)

Interested in meeting for a beer or two?

Call me if you need anything? 4 seven 4 - 4005 (the seven isn't working on my puter)

Tom, at this time it is spoken for. Going to a GREAT home. I'm personally thrilled. If anything changes, i'll let you know. I had more calls about it this past week, than the previous couple months combined.

Buizilla, pretty soon you'll have to edit the ole signature. :yes:

I'm hoping Buizilla's Minx moves far away, so mine doesn't look like a booger next to it! It's a great boat.

Rumor has it that the new owner will only be attending events with fresh water.

We absolutely love florida but I will tell you that victoria is something else. It is spectacular. I visited with a client about 5 years ago and never thought I would be lucky enough to show my wife your lovely city. We had a blast but were sorry we didn't get together. We can do that next time you are in florida. Tom & Rose
