"very nice boat and it was the last year Donzi was truely a Donzi (1987). the boat has been sitting up for a while and may need a little bit of work. The motor may have 75 hours on it or less. The boat has barely been used just no longer have use for it. This boat is equipped with a 350 chevy and a350 magnum alpha1 in/out board. has a stainless steel prop (23 pitch) capable of doing speeds of up to 85-90 mph. not a scratch on the boat just age."

85-90 MPH seems pretty far fetched from a 350 in an 18. No pictures in the ad. Who knows...

Where was he when I was trying to dial in the Scorpion.....:nilly:

Maybe he meant while it is on the trailer being towed...

Always easier to say it than do it!!!!

[Planetwarmer]

maybe he meant kilometers per hour

What? after '87 they wouldn't do 80mph with a 350?

85-90 with "has a stainless steel prop (23 pitch) capable of doing speeds of up to 85-90 mph." hmm

for those interested, this guy sent me some shotty pictures by cell phone about 2mo ago and the boat looked rough. it also appeared to be a 16.

I'm sure he meant that with a new engine/outdrive/years of experimentation, and some new stringers that the boat would do 85-90. You guys can be so cruel sometimes.
