So what you are saying is the term didn't come from a 1980's Bayliner???

I tried to post pics of a donzi sweet 16 I recently painted and restored the cap for a client. But site won't let me post pics yet. Maybe I'll revisit the thread later

Also a bit of trivia........Don named is white English Bull Terrier after Brooklyn gangster "Vannie Higgins" who operated the 50' rum runner "Cigarette" in the 1920's
