Thanks Fast. This one was ... (wont say easy) not as hard as the others. The one part I hate the most though was that you have to remove the deck to get the gas tank out. First time I have ever had to do that. Sad part was the tank in it was only a couple years old (they cut the cockpit up to replace it) and it was trashed from them installing it with open cell foam. Wont happen ever again with my install. Should be good for another 40+ years if not more. Another sad thing is as many Donzi 16's and 18's as there is you still have to have the tanks custom made.
Iliveonanisland, all kidding aside, knowing what I know about these boats (small Donzi's) I wouldn't be to worried about what side the steering is on, the tank would be the first thing I would look at. My Nova takes 8 screws to pull up a deck plate to remove the gas tank. A Donzi .... well you saw. ¡ also owned a 21 hornet with 454 trs that rode out sweet as could be... i think someone re rigged the 18 i bought here but it was a miserable ride... cool vid nice resto, what r you asking for ur 18 |
You all missed the INTRIGUE. Jim Wynne was tied up with with Volvo, and he and Walt put the helms on the left because Merc only turned righthand. Both the Volvo and the Eaton C piece of chit turned lefthand. This kept us from using Mercs, and fattened JW's wallet a little. In addition, Mr. K would not sell us anything because we smelled of JW. Mr. K would have shat (not shot) himself if he know that Charlie Strang had invented the Volvo drive.
