your right about that ryan. Some of my friends run their scraabs down to put in bay, from detriot.
Not much of a big water fan, I like to ski and your not going to do much of that on Erie. Also my only use for big water is to dive and you can use any large boat for that. Don't get me wrong the donzi's and other cig boats are nice, just not my style boat. |

My boat can take em for about 75 yards, the top one is a big block 500hp and its stock. The tan one is an older classic that had a 383 storker in it, then he picked up a 400 block from my brother, and built a 427, he had it dynod at 575 hp at 4000rpm he thinks its going to run 90+, All I know is they are both going to take me for a ride this summer!

I always liked Donzies, too, especially the Sweet 16s as I am partial to smaller boats. And I also agree that being I/Os takes away from their luster. Thats why I was impressed and tempted when I stumbled across my first donzi v-drive a few years ago. Ad said donzi v-drive and I didnt believe it, just thought it was another one of those listers that didnt know what he was talking about. Ended up I was the ign'rnt one as it really was a v-drive. The down side was that the engine was in about a million pieces down in his basement...a little more project than I was equipped to take on. |

I don't know where that is, but I do know that my offshore fishing and spearfishing urges are beginning to give way to urges to go where ever that is...
You know who I see when I'm miles offshore? Usually drunk men. And birds. That's usually it. |
