Hey Guys,

This is not Nate. My name is Dolph Williams and I am from Ruston, LA. Thanks, Nate for letting me use your login info. I am a Viper friend of Nate's uncle and have never met Nate. Nate, I will see you at the Tickfaw 200 in May. Dean told me you and he would be there.

I did buy this awsome Donzi 38 ZR a week ago. I hosted the Mid-South Viper Club Christmas party at my house and had the boat delivered about 30 minutes before the party started. With the V-10s, it was a super hit for all the Viper attendees. I wanted a Viper powered boat because I have 3 Vipers now. I have a bunch more photos of the boat, but I'm not computer savy enough to post them. I'm from the old school.

The tag on the boat says it is a 2007 model and was built in June of this year. When the boat was delivered, it was showing 2 hr. on the meters. I see by some of the pictures that it had Teague drives on it at the Dallas Summer Boat Show back in July. I am very good friends with Bob Mason with Ilmor, and he has been very honest with me the whole time. Donzi apparently had a problem that was actually with the starboard drive shaft that was caused by the wrong engine mount being installed from the beginning. The engine mount was changed and it solved the problem. During all this, the drives have been changed to Imco SCs. I put the boat in the water this past Wed. for the first and only time, yet, and it was cold as hell. Boat ran and sounded great. It had 30" props and Gene Weeks from Donzi was with me, and he is sending me 32" Herrings.

I will also be at the Emerald Coast Poker Run with it in August, and hopefully others that I find out about.

And, now there is a '98 Baja 29 Outlaw for sale that has Procharged 454s and a built in air conditioner!!!!!!!!!!!

Just to set the record straight. That boat was not at the 2006 dallas Summer boat show. It was at the Dallas 2006 Winter Show. I helped set up the boat at the show. It is a very sweet ride. Congrats on the new ride. I know you will enjoy the boat.....

Sweet new ride!!

A few of us from Cincinnati are talking about coming down for the Tickfaw 200. I may bring my Donzi 22 if I have it back together by then!

Congratulations on the Donzi. You will definitely love the Vipers. You know since you own a few of them. They are sweet engines.
