I wanna make the outriggers, fold in and spread out. not for catchng anything but, who knows. I also wanna do an functional anchor. ect. ( cant give out all ideas.lol) and yes you can water cool a diesel. I have it all planed out

Sounds like you have some interesting plans!! My Donzi is built...if you go back a few pages, you may find some pcs. However the glass kits are no longer in production, and the last I heard...they were downright difficult to get, but if you need any help iff ou do find one....give me a holla.

yea i have gone threw this intire thread lol page by page. and read everything. I have saved every pic.. These boats look unreal.. great job guys.. everyone of them looks great... I dont remember seeing any completed ones..Im bidding on one on ebay right now ( a glass one). Hopefully no one on this sit, snags it from me.

Here's one for ya!

She's got a lot more detail now, but no new pics yet.

very nice looking. Looks great

now d they not have windshields??

I have seen some with or without, but to answer your question more specifically. No...they do not have a windshield, but the fullsize Donzi's do in most cases have a faux ( fake ) one painted on

Hey Sharkbait, also go to the r/c forums.com. There you will find alot of info.

Somebodys got to help this guy out. Sharkbaits a cool guy and has been bitten by the Donzi bug. I had one for sale but it sold locally so we didnt close the deal. Its a shame Dumas has changed things but I guess economics dictate these days. At the recent modeling show here in NY I dont even think they made an apperence. Its all planes an cars. Even most of the local hobby shops sell mostly "toy" boating items. Forget anything scale or detail items. Hope this wont mean the end. Good luck sharkbait. Shes out there some where, Merc

Sharkbait is bidding on my donzi as I type this. Hope he wins, so we can have another build thread. I have built a few of these and I have 2 left. One I'm keeping and the other is on ebay.
Bruce

I'm temted to bid...but that would be just plain greedy! Sharkbait, you are getting a great deal!! good luck!!

come on bruce hook me up. lol. and bvanter5 i will beat you if you bid. (will track you down and beat you)..lmao.. i have so many ideas for this boat...

LOL!!! Good luck...I hope you get it.

Nice video!

I second that! Nice video! javascript:void(AddText('',''))

I think the guy who shot the video and the guy who owns the boat are both nutz. I think they live in California and the sun and heat have gone to their heads!

Nice work gentlemen.
