Greetings to all you fellow boaters from a new member and prospective Donzi owner. I'm hoping to obtain feedback/advice on two issues. First, I'd like to acquire a 90's area Classic 16 or 18, but am unsure which craft is best. What do you guys think?
Second, I float at higher altitude (5000ft) and am concerned about what steps will be necessary to allow a 16 or 18 to run well. The ones I've found for sale are all in low altitude areas, so I guess an outdrive rebuild, and perhaps staying away from the OMC products since parts could be an issue. What do you guys think? Go Mercruiser? Would a re-prop to a low pitch be enough on one of these small hulls?
Thanks guys.
