I like the part about taking your friends for a 90mph boat ride. If this tub does 90, I'll eat it with a fork and spoon! LOL

Man I've seen a lot of crazy ads, but this one takes the cake!

[f_inscreenname]

Someone bid 3500 for it. :eek:
Wonder what it says on the title? :bonk:

[gcarter]

Could the pump and engine be worth $3,500??

OTOH, it has "DONZI" stickers on it, so it must be so ! :)

[Just Say N20]

So we will see if this goes anywhere.

The guy has a 100% rating, so I wrote him suggesting that one does not get a 100% rating by misrepresenting the items they are selling.

I assured him that beyond the Donzi stickers, there is nothing Donzi about that boat. And if it was a 1975, there would be a hull identification number on the transom. I told him if he provided me with the HIN, I would look up who actually manufactured the boat.

We will see.

I also told him (politely) that he had a bad title since he stated it had Donzi listed as mfg. Also suggested he put a tape measure on it, it looks like 18' to me. - giving the benefit of the doubt, he may just be very uninformed

That's 90 mph with six people on board! :rolleyes:

[woobs]

That's 90 mph with six people on board! :rolleyes:

Or, maybe he has a hopped up Suburban (or similar) tow vehicle that seats six.... he could get it up to 90 mph that way :)

[bertsboat]

He has bids. Thats more than I can say for some or the so called real Donzi's. $4500.00
Maybe someone needs a good title?

[Scott Pearson]

A friend of mine told me about this boat about 2 years ago. It was someone that he knows. I spoke to the owner 2 years ago before he ever listed it for sale and informed him that it was not a Donzi after I was sent pictures. Guess he thought I was full of it. So he is well informed what it is not. I remember him also telling me it was a prototype. Guess you cant fix stupid.

[Carl C]

Scott, apparently Donzi made more than one prototype........

[hardcrab]

Good for him.

It's back.........:nilly:

[f_inscreenname]

It's back.........:nilly:
He should have took the 3500 and ran. Even if it was a Donzi its not worth it.
