I'm not too familiar with a Stuphen. It looks like a 16' Donzi except for the steering hump. I wondered if it was a Donzi splash. Looks real nice. Please send full details. Tony tonymartini747@hotmail.com

Definitely NOT a Donzi 18 splash. The Sutphen family has been designing their own boats for generations.

It is sort of an insult to call a Sutphen a Donzi splash (I know it wasn't meant that way). Sutphens have always been impressive well built boats and this one is beautiful ----- it would be a great addition to anyone's collection!
