Donzi 18 (X-18?) on Ebay

[wickedfast]

This looks interesting. Is it an X-18? How rare are V-drives?

Where's the dead horse? It has to be around here somewhere!

Sorry Wicked, you probably just haven't had the pleasure of seeing the posts/discussions of this boat a few months ago (and then a few months before that). I'm sure one of my cohorts will find the link for you.

As I remember it was back and forth but in the end they said it was a real X-18.
The gauges look correct.

The X-18s are rare, only 156 ever made.
The V-drives are rarer, don't know the numbers.
