    How was your experience with the new Donzi owners/facility? It's been awhile since I've been on here so I apologize if there is already thread on your experience.

    All the people there were very accommodating, well beyond being polite. I scheduled a visit in December, not knowing they were officially closed on
    Friday . However, my contact, Carol Price, was waiting for me even though she had a painful personal issue that morning. Delivery was on time and went smoothly, the only issue was the borrowed trailer was too small, that of course was all on me. If you check Donzi's facebook page you'll see what I mean, that was a white knuckle ride back to Knoxville! We got a tour of the facility, and frankly I was surprised at how much they do in house. I hope my comments are helpful. Still trying to sell my perfect 18 Classic though.

    Can someone educate me on who owns Donzi LLC, who owns the company that owns Donzi, and what state has the holding company has now set up shop in for the building of a 2015 Classic 16, 18 or 22? I know there were many permutations over the years during bankruptcy.

    That is great to hear. There has been a lot of talk of concern with the future of Donzi, glad to see that they are still going. Are you happy with the boat itself?...fit and finish good?

    From what I understand, Donzi Marine is under American Marine Holdings, which is a subsidiary of Baja Marine. Classics are being built in Washington, NC.

    Overall fit and finish is good and it runs well. Unfortunately I haven't been able to log enough break-in hours on it yet.
