I can say both, I have never ran a Poker Run without my wife since 1998 she has been on my side and at one time wanted to race a boat with Candy Kennedy all girl crew. When we drove the 38ZRC the day before the Poker Run in Sarasota she was my wheel girl and I was at sticks, she had no problem handling that boat in the gulf at 115 actually she loved it. Mike Fusco has Jet Set 40 Skater with twin Turbines she has been on that boat several times and says there is nothing like going 196mph in a boat.

I do this for a living, Donzi's are very nice boats, hell their knocking my door down to pick them up as a line at Smith Mountain Lake. 38 to 38 >>> or comp to PR edition, the Fountain is going to be faster, period. However as I stated in the beginning, their are more factors that should/and do go into buying a boat, and what is best for one is not always best for all.

WILL:ernaehrung004:

Will, faster on SML- Yes.
Faster in 4-6's- NO , I doubt it unless someone has a death wish.....
just my .02
BTW, We absolutely LOVE SML boating! See ya in May! Spil

Here is a 42PR from the 2008 run. It's docked beside a 36 Eliminator, and a 38ZR.

Thats not a 42PR in the pics

As far as size the 38ZR falls in between the 38 and 42 lightnings....if you are going to use the Donzi ZRC as comparison than I guess you have to us the Fountain 42PR ( I don't think that Fountain makes a 38PR) Fountain sent a 42PR to europe this past summer with Merc 662's that ran 115 at the factory...in the big water racing P1 circuit the 38Donzi ruled until the Fountain showed up

Actually the fastes on the lake is a CAT, but the lake doesn't get 6-8 rollers.

I said faster, not fastest! But that is certainly true, I have seen a few fast cats up there. Where do you guys hang? we usually stay @ Bernards....
