on this Donzi?
Cleaned out some files of the Antique boat Show in Clayton this summer and found these pics. This was docked at the museum. I think it's pretty cool.
Any info on it?

With the dash padding and lid padding and rail, it looks like a basic Hornet II that someone removed the windshield and modded with a triple bolster seat. Although I have never seen a left hand drive Hornet II before.

Ken,
bootdaddy is from your neck of the woods and has started a nice collection so you'll have that hornet, a sportsman, a 20 cig and a corsican up there in 1000 isles

Rob,
i guess the change to the starboard helm came when the were merc powered as a standard, I know the trs could spin both ways not sure where the helm was the early brochure boats are port helm probably volvo powered boats like this one
really not a big deall on a benchseat or 2+3 boat just a matter of where you drill your holes not a different deck like the 16
