Keep in mind to run through a patch of rough water & then smaller water is quite different then running tens of miles of rough water. Then do it for decades with the same boat! That's where hull design & build quality are paramount .http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CRayu3RSOrM

This stunt would be like Lamborghini coming out with a red Enzo Ferrari themed car complete with prancing horses on the sides decades after he passed while the two companies were still bitter rivals in a bad economy. Even if they did get permission from one of his children, it would still strike a lot of people as being disrespectful to a legendary brand that so many people worked so hard to build up beyond the founder himself.
This DA themed boat with a (1) on the sides does not raise my image of OL in any way. In fact, as others have pointed out, it leaves me scratching my head wondering why they would pull such a stunt when they are finally sitting atop the V bottom racing world and should be far above making such gaffs. Build your own brand image for having the fastest V bottoms on the planet and leave the memory of Don Aronow and the (1) logo with Cigarette where it has been in good hands for the last 40 years. IMO

I just read the entire thread start to finish.
My interesting "opinions".
Not many here on OSO to shy to say what they really think.
My opinion is OL should have used the number on this boat instead!
Obviously the Don liked it, I was surprised no one on OSO made mention of it! Post # 166 - page 17.

2005 Donzi 23 (22.6) Special Edition Aronow (Yellow)
I have a 2005 Donzi 23 (22.6) special edition ARONOW.
Only 7 boats were manufactured from this series. I think that the one I have is the only one remaining in the USA. The motor is a 496 MAG HO. The boat is yellow and it is like new barely used.
I have had heard so many opinions about the boat and its value that I don't know where to start. I will like to sell it. Is there anyone that can give me information about this boat?
Thank you for your attention.
