Thanks for the replys all, glad I noticed this and corrected it. My holeshot does seem considerably better now.

Thanks for the replys all, glad I noticed this and corrected it. My holeshot does seem considerably better now.
From what I can tell the position of the spacer limits how far in the drive can be trimmed with the rams bottomed out. Going by the service manual, it appears Merc allows Bravo Ones to trim in...
If you've got this combo, preferably a non step hull, could you please take a look at your aft drive ram pin and tell me which position its in (I.e. pin to the stern spacer towards bow, or vice...
There is access to the rail inside in most places, need to remove all the panels in the v birth but that should expose a majority of it.
ive phoned Donzi before but they weren't much help, I agree...
Snapped a few shots today of what I'm dealing with;

I've got a 1997 Donzi 22 ZX and its steadily been acquiring a large number of gel cracks coming out from under the rub rail. I removed the rail today and think I found the root cause. The hull/deck...
Thanks, I'll try and get a pic up. Mine has no windshield, just the fiberglass fairing.
Hello,
I'm in need of a replacement cockpit cover for our 97 22ZX. I did a search on here and found lots of sources for full covers, but didn't see much in the way of cockpit covers. Just...
Hello,
I've got a 97 22 ZX (non-stepped) running a 454 Mag with Stainless Marine manifolds. The boat currently runs 5100 RPM and about 70 MPH on the speedo (never GPS'd it though). Its got the...
They're the original stringers, the one pic makes it look added on as this area was repaired once before. It looks like the previous owner had a decent repair done, the gel was sprayed on but its a...
In the process of prepping our 22 ZX for the season I came across something rather unsettling while waxing the hull. It appears that a number of nasty looking stress cracks have formed on the aft...
Its ok, I'm a car nut too.
That is how I understood a flame arrestor to function as well, what threw me off is looking at the pictures of the K&N assemblies and not seeing anything different from their car offerings.
I...
Mines the option #1 with the tubular rear hinge and single center hatch acctuator. I thought this seemed like a poor design, the actuator mounting brackets are very small given the huge weight of...
We just picked up a 1997 22ZX with a 454 MAG/B1. Spent the weekend cleaning and winterizing it and I noticed something that I'm wondering if any other ZX owners have experienced. The lower mount...
From my research the only vendor I've been able to find offering a conventional 14x3" flame arrestor is K&N, and the filter element looks just like a normal one. Maybe the mesh is fine and I'm just...
By screening do you just mean a fine metal mesh (assume stainless would be ideal)? Could I just put some of this inside a plain old K&N element?
Thanks
Sorry for the basic question, but whats the difference between a flame arrestor and a regular open element air cleaner? I ask as I'm looking for a performance air cleaner for a carbed 454 Magnum,...
Thats fantastic information, thanks very much for the replies. I've done plenty of autobody work and replaced a transom in a fiberglass runabout before, by the sounds of it I should have no problem...
Figured I'd snap a few pics and post them up to see what you think. These show most of the areas of concern. Given how wide spread it is I'd say its a Gelcoat issue caused during manufacturing...
Thanks for the replies all, I agree that these are likley stemming from the screw holes for the rub rail. Given the condition of the rest of the gelcoat and the rub rail itself, I'm resonably...
Hello,
I'm still on a hunt to purchase my first Donzi, and I recently took a look at a 1997 Donzi 22 ZX. Overall the boat is pretty clean, however I did notice one thing that concerned me.
...
You guys are killer, thanks for the replies thats a big help.
Hello,
I've been on the hunt for a used rig, and went out to look at a 22 Classic today. One thing I noticed that concerned me, there was a lot of play in the steering (i.e. the steering wheel...
Thanks for the links, some nice options to consider there. The 18 with the 377 is especially nice, little above my price range though, have to mull that over a bit.
This one caught my interest...
