Here's a pic of me at 6 years old infront of our 16. The photo was taken in Sandy Cove on Lake Mead, I didn't realize it, but the first photos I took of my 18' were in almost exactly the same spot! I think I may have a better angle on my other computer.

I think the boat was a '67? Can't remember but that would make it the same age as me.:)

Same cove, 33 years later, I think that's pretty cool! :pimp:

Very cool to have something like that. Meaning the old picture (and Donzis!)

The Donzi bug bit me when a dealer in my hometown started selling Donzis. Cerbone boat sales in Pt Pleasant beach, NJ was the name of it, i recall. Even coming from a non-boating family, I knew i'd have one some day. :wink:

Yeah, I thougth I had lost the pic and fortunately it turned up during a recent move. Funny how certain things can make such an impression on you. I only had to wait 33 years to fullfill my dream, hahaha.

Those pics are nice!
We're going to make Mead a stop this year when we go to Powell. How far is the drive from LV City?

Awesome, I plan on attending Powell as well. Lake Mead is only about 30 minutes or so from the Strip. :)
