Hornet Marine photo shoot preview
 

It's already been a busy summer for Hornet Marine, we had a great photo & video shoot out on the CT River last week. Here's a few shots of the Hornet 17 our photographer Ross Monckton sent over. We'll be using the photos and video for future projects including our website re-design, I will post more once they are edited. This boat is currently on its way to our dealer Harborside Marina in Wilmington, Illinois.

Thanks for sharing these pictures! The blue boat is now with Yankee Boating Center in Lake George. It was the first blue boat we have built and everyone seems to love the color.

I talked with Hornet Marine at the 2011 Miami show. Super nice guy, and a great boat.

Great pictures, thanks for posting those from Miami.

We're almost done rebuilding our first hull/demo boat - I will post pictures soon of the before and after. We'll be taking it up to Lake George, NY tomorrow so if you see us around come say hi and we'll take you for a test drive.

Here are some before & after pictures of our demo boat/hull 0001. We just finished up the upgrades this afternoon in time to bring the boat to Lake George this weekend. Come check it out if you're in the area

I saw the Yellow Hornet at Anchor Performance in the Ozarks...GREAT Boat!

The Donzi guys need to relax...as many stated splash or not, its a great boat and Donzi stopped making them several times. Four Winns made the Unlimited-171 and U-191 which is the same bottom, dont see you crying about those.

Its America where people are allowed a certain latitude to mirror other products. Boats are no different. If Donzi were so concerned Im sure they would say so.

Good Luck guys, nice product!!

Kirk - thanks for your support. The yellow boat our dealer Anchor Performance has is one of our favorites and always an attention grabber.
