I remember that boat VERY well as I grew up in Harvey Cedars. It was on a canal in Loveladies forever and I would see it out on the bay very often. There were only a few go-fasts back then on Barnegat Bay. My friend's Uncle owned the other 76 18 yellow Donzi which he kept at The Boat Yard in Cedars and there was another yellow 21 Hornet there too. I think I thought all Donzis were yellow growing up. I remember as a teenager wondering what happened to the boat and somebody telling me the story. Unfortunnately I too heard the driver was decapitated going between a barge, etc. Guess that is how it went around the island(sorry). I never saw the boat again nor for sale anywhere. Try the other Donzi sites as well, somebody has to know. PLEASE keep us posted and keep bumping this as I too am interested with the outcome as like I said I remember this boat very well.

My grandparents house was on Holly Drive it sold in 1997. Thanks for all the input. That Donzi in NH looks like it however the steering wheel on my dads was on the port side. That one looks to be starboard. Thanks again guys.
The boat was traded in by my grandfather to Merit Marine in Brant Beach (now Marine Max) for Sea Ray. Unfortunately Merit has no records of it that long ago.
I spotted this boat last week on vacation during a beer run crossing the 34th street Bridge. Give them a call who knows it may be your boat and could be for sale? Last registration was 2010 last winterized 2012/13 winter and the owner’s last name is Wilson. It’s a 1970’s port side steer for sure and looks to be in decent condition. Sorry to see it sitting outside uncovered however the hull did have a shine. There were several deep gouges in the gel coat and it is a yellow boat.

My wife had the same look on her face as your sister the 2 times she ever agreed to go for a ride on my Sweet 16. Ready for action .
I hope you find your boat!

Well it turns out it's not it. That boat is 73 and he has owned it since thre 80's. I appreciate all the help though. The search continues.
It also had an all yellow hull where yours was yellow & white.

I would not doubt that. Tuckerton may be a good place to search.

Really? I live in the next town over from Tuckerton. Darn. Hopefully it turns up one day. Thanks again for all your replies guys.
How certain are you about the year model? The clamshells look like the older style to me. I am not an expert, but the two 76's I have been around (EricH's & Krakmeup's) had the newer style with the black plastic bottom.

Hang in there, you will find it.
