    Got to see this boat at Lake George several years ago.

    Tremendous detail and quality. Rock solid and fast.

    One of a kind and nicely done.

    Skip the construction quality and appearance characteristics of this boat. They are given.

    I've run with it. Really run with it! Big water. Full of family. Doesn't matter. The boat runs flat and stable. And fast. Nothing not to like.

    And rigged, really, really nice to boot!

    Wow. Love this boat.

    Buy the hardware, rigging, and interior and get a hull & trailer thrown in for free. Good luck with her sale - someone needs to snatch this thing up!

    ETA: Ok, I just looked at the pictures again and did the mental beer math. It isn't anywhere near possible to replicate this boat for the ask. Good deal for someone. It's the right color, too...

    I got to run with this boat also on Lake St. Clair down to Detroit. That was before it was fully dialed in. I put so much money into my 22 to get it where I want and now I see these beautiful boats popping up in the $50,000 range. Wow. Parnell, can I put your video in your for sale thread? I'll delete the link if for some reason you'd like. 45g OBO. Someone should be all over that.

    As most of us who have completely redone these boats can attest, this is absolutley true. It was great fun to design and build and I never had any expectations of a financial windfall. I am very proud of how it turned out and how it runs, however I have too many boats and one needs to go.
    Thanks for all the nice complimnets and thanks for attaching the vid Carl

    The only problem I see is that financing will be a problem on an older model boat. Regardless if it's in brand new condition banks go by the model year. That means coming up with the cash.

    They dont like to make big loans on a 1976 boat regardless of its condition but hopefully someone can rize above that.
    I would consider a partial trade for another donzi or potentially a newer pickup

    I have a completely documented history of every detail of the restoration. It was a great project and could not be replicated for twice my price.

    622 cubic inch 700hp (20 hours with dyno sheets) naturally aspirated Dart block with polished and ported Dart heads and all braided lines. Electric Engine Hatch
    Stelling headers with Stainless Marine custom tailpipes exhausting below the water line. Sea Strainer and full Fresh Water Flush
    XR Bravo drive with 2" Imco shortie on a Mercury Racing “ITS” Transom assembly with fully integrated hydraulic steering. 380 K Planes with Latham pop up trim indicators
    New stringers and transom with four additional full bulkheads installed along with support gussets every two feet throughout the boat
    New and completely custom paint by one of the best in the country - Mitcher T Paint. All hardware re-chromed or new. Custom 100 gallon fuel tank
    New and completely custom interior includes (5) Skater sit down bolsters with center throttle console and Left Hand steering. New cockpit cover
    100% new rigging and wiring. Full Livorsi gauges including depth, gps speedo (your speeds may vary!), knock meter, and fuel flowscan meter. Custom Garmin built in GPS panel
    JL Audio stereo with remote, Sirius radio and pro amps. Custom lighting with external Battery switch and 2 Batteries in full offshore brackets
    2012 Integrity dual axle trailer with brakes, mounted spare and chrome fenders.

    $45,000 and can ship anywhere in the lower 48. Very solid, safe, fast and predictable handling at speed. Docile around the dock and quiet.
