I stumbled upon this picture from 2005, my first summer with my first and present Donzi. Twelve years! Who thought I would still be here on Donzi.net? I've seen most of the old crowd fade away. I've seen new members come and go. I still run into "Ranman" Randy on the water a couple times a year. Haven't seen much from "Mop" lately. Hope he is OK. Hope Ed gets well too. Anyway I'm heading out to the small lake now and my winter goal is to get that flat stomach back! Cheers.:):cool!:

I didn't even have a yellow swim suit yet, had to wear RED. Agghh, the horror :nilly:! This is the boat that got me addicted 40 years ago. Needless to say I outgrew it fast.

Carl, what's aging better? You or the boat? :biggrin.:

Congrats! It's great to have something that you love so much you keep it forever. The 22 Anniversary has always been my favorite.

Definitely the boat but seeing that picture has me determined to get back into shape! Mine's not an anniversary boat but the factory installed aluminum air dam makes it unique.

It's definitely a great looking boat and the alum. Fairing does make it look good. And I know that you use it a lot, which makes it even better.

Yes, it gets used. Going out today in fact. Like a fine wine it has gotten better with age and a steady pace of upgrades!
