Its a playground for grown men! Look at all those boats! I tend to visit our "bone yard" a few times a year to see if anything new has popped up! ------------- |

They should be proud of that boat. Sweet 16's are awesome little boats and that boat in particular looks nearly perfect. I'd love to find a project 16 someday. ------------- Nathan http://correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=1463&sort=&pagenum=3&yrstart=1978&yrend=1978" rel="nofollow - My '78 Ski Nautique <a href="http://photobucket.com/Nates78ski" rel="nofoll |

I was cruising the salvage yard for gunwale trim for Jess' 73.
The old boat reminded me of a cross between Baby Donzi and a Rayson Craft. I did find 5 70s style CC steering wheels. All on IMPs. AT PS also looking for George Jetson stern lights. No luck. |

DrCC- Keep an eye out for a flag staff for my 66.Slight rake to it that fits in the bow light. The hole is like 1/2"(closer to 10mm)Post a pic on the stern light or globe your looking for also.

I don't need an Elroy Jetson, someone else was looking for one.
I did a search and it only gives one and the most current result. But here's the pic anyway.

I've liked sweet 16s since the 70s. When I was looking for my Tique 5 years ago, I found a sweet 16 v-drive. I didnt know such a thing existed. Scarce!! In hindsight I kind of wish I had gone for it. It was the same price as my tique, but the engine was in a million pieces in the guys basement, which was a little more than I could take on.
A buddy of mine just bought on old donzi to restore. I know he'll do a good job, its the same guy that did the 67 Stevens V-drive I posted pictures of last fall.  ------------- _____________ “So, how was your weekend?” “Well, let me see…sun burn, stiff neck, screwed up back, assorted aches and pains….yup, my weekend was great, thanks for asking.” |

ReidP has one. Put it in the water for us 2 summers ago when we were there. What a ride! It was on I-O as I thought they all were. Never saw a v-drive. That would be very cool.

Pretty much the ultimate boat in my mind. The regular sweet 16 is special enough...but then make it a v-drive. Probably the top of my wish list boat.

Wow! That v-drive Donzi is enough to make a grown man cry!
Incidentally, are you guys familiar with the four winns u-17? A guy I know just bought one. Not a Donzi, but looks pretty sweet anyway. ------------- http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=3284 - 1988 Ski Nautique |
