The other night in Chat someone mentioned a nice 38ZR. I just wasted an hour of my life on Boat Trader online, so who has the new and old style ZR's for sale?

If you own a new style ZR I am interested in hearing all about it.
Thanks

OSO classifieds. Robert Nelem's boat. Staggered 575s with ITS and sportmasters. New owner hasn't had it long enough to put any hours on it.
199k. If you buy it, I just want a ride okay?

Thanks RT, after no luck on Boat Trader I looked over there, I let my membership expire but was stilll able to view the classifieds.

The new ZR for $329K gave me a giggle..
The boat your referring to is in KY or CA. I saw them all.

Since I have a new career path I am very seriously looking to upgrade if it is a good deal. I may call ol Frank soon just to get some sanity.

Take care man, give my best to Jill.

Bryan, if you are thinking about a 38 ZR.....
The bottom has been changed on newer 38ZR's that have a cabin. Its a VERY different boat from the earlier version.

The steps have been moved and changed.......
If you are looking for a cabin version ZR, I would buy the 35 ZR hands down!
Call me if you get a chance or shoot me an email.

it has had a couple of birthdays. I would call them, because they take it on and off their site pretty regularily.
Let's just say that the ownership in this boat is a little "unique"... Happy to fill you in on the details, if you find it is still there.
Comp all they way...

Thanks for the data, I will email you in a few.
I am in shop mode, I have yet to see one that strikes me as "the one." I have ran with them, seen them in person but never actually rode in one.
I do enjoy my cuddy, good for the chicks and my 11yo. But I would give it up for the right Comp, or have the best of both in a newer ZR. Plus I DO NOT want blower motors.

I have also researched the value of my boat, not many 33ZX's for sale like mine, condition and graphics. I was surprised to see Undertakers boat for sale so soon, $115 I think for a 2002, I am an 03 and would want a bit more especially with the big HD trailer I have.

Did I mention my 33ZX is costing me a fortune this very minute with all the Merc maitenance for 3 years or 200 hours, just to keep my Z-Care in tact? Might just keep her one more season. She is an awesome boat, just slow at 72 to 74 WOT.
Plus I will have limited boating next year do to work.
Still looking though.

Bryan, Your amazing man! 72 - 74 in a cabin Donzi and your calling it slow? You are hangin with a fast crowd there in VA. Good luck in your new job and search for a ZR. Just wondering why all the Donzi memrabilya has gone up for sale if your leaning towards a ZR? Say hello to your family and Happy Holidays!

Hey Bolt's, just selling stuff that I spent money on and never used.

Boats: I am always looking, I am very happy with the 33ZX, but I also want to expand my capabilities if the "right deal" comes along.

Take care my friend, I am actually considering AOTH in 2006 if it is EARLY May. What are the dates.

Heck, why not just put 525's in your boat? My dad's 33 does lower 80's with 500's.
