Default Joining the Elite- 2002 38 ZX

Hi All,

Super excited to be the owner of a 2002 38ZX. Spent the last 3 days traveling to FL and back to pick her up.

55 hours
2550 miles
1 blowout
2 new tires
236 gallons of fuel

And she's back to MI!

Love the Donzi! Yes, it needs to be about 4 feet further forward on the trailer

Nice boat, looks in nice shape. Hate to say it but trailer looks like you need to get something else to get some support under that transom. Liken it to standing on the end of a diving board as opposed to standing at the beginning where the support is.

Hi All,

tnc110 - yes, plenty of tongue weights actually. Custom load master trailer has a good weight distribution.

woody 81 - worked well where it is ever at 70mph. Remember it probably wights 13,000 lbs.

Wilks - Gas 2500HD, I was surprised at how well it did. No issues.

First repair last night, successfully changed the impeller on the starboard engine. Only a few bloody knuckles and 2 hours later I was done.
