I can picture the conversation now... Don Says.."Ya know, I'm fed up with this Cigarette thing, I will name this one the sea otter" soon we will have a 41 sea otter and a 47 muskrat and a 38 Egret....:rofl:

The guy probably has no idea how far off he is. Someone probably told him it was a Don boat and he believed it.

Everyone knows that Don Aronow designed every boat built between 1967 and 1990. That's correct- a full three years after his death. And each of those boats constructed were "his own personal boat", if but for a brief time.

It's a cool little boat though. I actually thought about going after it, but I'm almost to the point of the next boat needing to have sleeping accommodations on board- for one, if you get my meaning.

I had to ask him if he has any idea what he is talking about. I doubt my question will get posted on the description page though. :rolleyes:

Weirdest little Donzi I've ever seen. Poodle collects some odd ones.. maybe he'd be interested. I'm sure it would be valuable addition to his collection, rare as it is and all. :D

I had a funny felling that was going to be the case.

No $hit?

The big question would be "why?"

Glad you cleared that up. I thought it was really one of his designs for some reason- King of Thunderboat Row maybe?

I posted the thread not knowing for sure what it was. The description of it seemed off with the first design and 1975 in it. It makes sense now with his explanation in the Q and A. Thanks Brownie!
