This is a 16 Donzi which has been completely redone. It has a built small block, IMCO drive I believe, tabs, custom interior design, and sweet (pun intended) paint.

I'll try to get a complete story on the rebuild this winter if I can talk them into it. It was a heck of a job.

I'll switch locations with him, I'm on the severn River on the Chesapeake Bay, my pier already was under water at high Tide this morning and the storm is still at least 6 hours away

Paul , why not tell everyone that the owner of the boat is Parn .

I haven't talked with him yet about doing a story. Until I get permission, I try to make sure things stay private.

How are you doing Artie? Keeping busy? Paul , yes and no , and the reason being is ........things seem to be winding down somewhat towards the end of the summer ......... along with having a few health issues to deal with which has somewhat put everything on the back burner. Paul in regards to your favorite Donzi the owner has already posted before and after Pic's on another site , and as......... you wish i will respect your wishes . Artie :bump:.......................:seeya:

What projects are you working on?Paul to tell you the truth i have been doing a lot of jobs from replacing stringer's , core , and transom repair on larger boats from Trojan , Fountain , to a 288 Thompson , that i an trying to wrap up along with redoing a 1960 century resorter which now has all new wood on the deck , and at the moment........... i am in the process of replacing both sides of the hull along with trying to purchase a new # 19 FT, project boat for the winter that will need new stringers , transom , floor's , motor , kinda like the Donzi here in this thread . Paul , that is funny :) i will be up there sometime next week also , and in fact right down the road from Ben's at two different places ...........................ha ha ha small world . Paul , i forgot to mention that the same person who owns that # 16 just finished up a Donzi GT 21 that also was painted by Mitcher T .

I've run with this boat at a Donzi ralley and yes it is a fine piece of work along with the GT-21 he has done. Boat runs strong its, a n/a SB in high 400 maybe 500 HP range, drive is an Alpha SS, owners name, Parnell heck of a nice guy as well.

he goes all out when he builds a boat. nothing is spared. and don't for get the turnage in both of his donzi's, it is like being at a concrete when they are cranked up in the race shop.
