First I would like to thank Boxy for being the best Navigator out there!
1000 Islands Poker Run was awesome and all I can say the Donzi 38 ZR is one of the best damn boats I haver had the pleasure of driving. If I could tell you we picked off boats like flys, I wouldn't be lying.
We started off 4th to last and blasted by everyone, the 38 like the add says runs on rails, no chine walking at all and launches straight. If I could ever afford one of this boat I would buy one in a heart beat.. DONZI GREAT JOB!
Watch for more to come from Donzi in the near future :biggrin.: I know whats coming but I am not allowed to say.
Boxy: This ones for Chuck ( I Never Mashed The Throttles!) He He!

No he stayed pretty dry.
Hey Boxy this map is for you? Chuck said when you come to Atlantic City boat show this is the shortest route" Instead of coming through NY to NJ go to Mexico to Florida and take 195 north to NJ its only a few blocks away ;)
See Map for directions

I was at the 1000 Islands Poker Run and remember seeing that 38ZR there...the best looking ZR there and one of the best looking boats out of the 130+ that were there! What power does she have and what speeds can you reach?

Staggered Merc 525's, and the top speed depends on who is listening, and whether or not you're running in salt.
I don't think we ever broke 60, right Frank.... :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
