Driven 1000+ Donzi's
The Donzi factory is moving to North Carolina.
Many of us here (on the registry) saw this comming. I am surprised it did not happen sooner.
It makes perfect business sense.
I am sure that in the long run, the boats will just keep getting better and better as we have seen in the past. I wish everyone involved all the best!

Donzi changes all the time
I hope it's for the better?
Actually, not surprising. Glad the option was there in the present economy.
Best of Luck Donzi....

Why has everyone seen the move up north? Is this due to the recent purchase of Donzi?
What difference does it make where Donzi is located?

When i went to donzi years ago they seem to have everything scattered all over Sarasota..If they move to NC in the fountain plant they will probably have better QQ to over seeing everything in fountains facility. plus this way they can also build their new line of FONZI boats,
Good luck Mr X sorry to see them move..

NC has a long history of boat building...lots of skilled craftsmen...NC is business friendly and has lower costs of living...hope lots of employees make the move... good move for Donzi...I know you might feel settled in Florida Mr X but NC is a great place...try it for a while...but I know sometimes change is hard...
