Good stuff. Been friends with Craig for many years. His boat building, managing, racing, history, etc. is simply impressive. And he's a hellova nice guy. Glad to see him back at Donzi with some freedom to stretch his wings a bit.

Great read (as usual) Dina.

Always thought of them as a bit more 'Classy" of the group. I was at The Dunes in Nprt cleaning my boat one Monday and I spotted the silver with red interior Donzi that never seemed to go out. it was maybe a 38' and it was tied at dock by ramp with engine hatches open and a guy was down in there so I walked over. It had 3 blue 525s which I had never seen before. He said he was heading to his 2nd home in Ensenada after he got a sammy at the Bistro. Man I thought that was cool.

I bought a 1998 Donzi 22ZX in 2009. Original owner had it a few years and dropped a new 496HO in it. Absolute garage queen. I get comments about it every time I pull up to a dock.
Definitely a family boat based on the ad.
Always nice taking your grand daughter out for a spin.

I had Billy Moore and the team at Caldwell Design do some work on my Advantage a couple years ago and they did great work and a very fair price. Good guys that always pick up the phone and call you back. Massive facility there and they’ve been doing the layup of boats for other manufacturers for many years now.
