Hello Everyone,
It has been quite some time since I last posted. Since leaving Donzi Marine in 2006 I have been laid off from Hydra Sports (Genmar), graduated from college, Kathleen had breast cancer, I started a vintage automobile restoration company, had a huge fire in the shop that closed the business and started a new job working for Jupiter Marine International in early 2010. Today I did a walk thru of the Donzi factory where I worked for over 12 years in the engineering department. Chances are pretty good that I saw a great number of the boats currently enjoyed by everyone here go up the assembly line. The plant is now nearly empty. It was strange when I went back into what was my office. Everything was still its original place - almost as if I had never left. I listened for the voice saying that "You have entered another dimension" but everything was quite. As I drove away, I truly felt that you cannot go back home. So, from here on out, it must be upward and onward.
Sitting this evening with Kathleen while we watched a movie - the phone rang. Kathleen told me to go ahead and answer the phone even though I did not know the number calling. On the other line was a customer from Cape Cod that owned a 39 ZSC. He had a question about his boat and needed my help. Gone for over four years and I am still getting phone calls from Donzi owners about their boats. Im just glad that I can help.
If anyone is interested, I still have some Miami vice posters and blackhawk shirts That I would be willing to sell.
Cheers, Bryant
