Does it have a hull #?
1986 Minx
Engine: Whats that?
Looks like an 18...not a 16?
More pictures would be helpful, but I'm suspecting it might be a clone, or Donzi splash.
I bet it is a blast to drive as a jet!

Probably not a Donzi. Others will chime in.
Deck is wrong, cockpit is wrong, hardware is wrong.
Most likely a splash/copy as N20 said.
If you have any serial numbers on the drive or engine, some here may be able to decipher.
How long have you had it? Where do you boat?
Nice clear water in that first picture.
The tub liner looks to be a vance they did make a a SPLASH copy of the donzi 16 but it had twin buckets instead of the Lounge seating it also had half gunwales inside the boat.
If you have any serial numbers on the motor or jet drive I may be able to help de-code them

does the hull have any hook in it ? intentional( put there by mfg'r) or unintentional ( damage caused by sitting on a trailer unsupported)
the donzi 16 had hook placed in the hull on the outer chine area about 5-6 inches from the transom . this helped the boat plane driving the nose down then as speed increased the hook was up out of the water. bow lift is never an issue with an I/O 16.
if your hull has hook in it it may be hard to get the nose up
