Are you kiddin?? That Donzi looks a lot like their raceboats. A swept-back hull but not a BEAK. A beak is that pointy thing on a Fountain that makes it look like a souped-up version of the Mayflower.

See for yourselves:

Oh and lets not forget who has been winning F-2 Class for the last 3 years! With the same hull. Donzi has proved itself and is definetly showing her strength in the race community

The cockpit of the 35 looks pretty cramped. I'm anxious to see the 38. No doubt the 38 ZR is a great boat - I just dont' see how you can build out a pleasure cabin and cockpit and still get 90+ MPH out of 525''s. No doubt it'll be a great success if they do it.

The 35' ZXR cockpit has been discussed in detail earlier in this thread. A few observations and up close impressions that back up the impression that it's small. Most likely too small for me 'ya know? I do like the dash look/shape/features on both sides though. :cool:

We are 3 days into the Miami show and no pics of the 38 yet?
What's the deal? Someone has to have taken a picture of the new 38 - is it even at the show?

You're not looking hard enough. There are pics all over this site, and Donzi.net of it. It's a beautiful white blue green fade Daytona, 2 electric drop out bolsters in the front, and 3 electric drop out bolsters in the back. When Lee Kimmel unvieled it, he dedicated it to Steve Simon.

Would you mind posting some here, or a link to some pics. I still haven't seen the new 38.
