who's on doni dot net ?
 

donzi dot net
looked at joining to ask a member about a part / parts off a boat project he probably still has (sitting untouched for 5 years)
i don't like all those questions but probably answered the same ones here 9 years ago


if a fellow oso'r who's also a member over there could ask that guy if he still has it and would part with a couple things off it
i would greatly appreciate that.

the post is from 11-14-16, (been sitting for 5 years at time of post), he offered to sell it to another member and the thread kinda died off
maybe he still has it or the other member got it, but he was looking for a center console, the 2 models share the same hull
so the parts i want he wouldn't, long shot but what the heck.

reply in public or do it privately whatever works for you
thanks

re read the post,
the member who has the project posted it was for sale on 4-19-17
thanks again

----It must be the post with the white Doral. If you go back there, look for the other post in that thread back to another thread. I'm the guy who had both an El Pescador and a Spitfire. Since I have restored both I may be able to lend some info. As well, I do have some spare pieces lying around........Bill S

it is the doral
i managed to snoop around a little bit and think the guy is in palm beach county, that would be good, it's close.
also joined but cant access anything to post or pm him ??????? don't understand that.
got your pm, and thank you for helping out

left you a phone message

this is the link
need a 24 ft elpescador ....

that damn donzi dorals' been on my wishlist since i was 18
can't really afford and shouldn't get another project, but it's just too unique a piece to let go and
don't even know if it still exists
cockpit shot i think is a members, hope it's ok that i used it

The first pic of the Doral with the hatches open belongs to h2oboater here on OSO.....he may be persuaded to sell it..

couldn't afford a fully restored one like that.
project is key word !
thank you for looking out
there was a blue and white one in florida that was restored years ago and converted from twin volvo to twin alpha
thought it was stripped and for sale 6-8 years ago

as of today my membership at donzi.net is still not active, can't log in and view can't do anything on the site
other than read it and only when i'm not logged on.

so today i flipped em 20 bucks (donation) thru paypal. figure they'll get an email "you got money"
maybe then i'll be able to pm the guy with the doral.

Send me a PM with your email address and I will forward it to him.

the guys who took time out of their schedule, reached out and helped get this going,
thank you

i just got off the phone with the owner and passed on it.
the owner was accommodating, went to where it is stored and sent me around 30 pics that are too big to attach here,
and after studying them all week looking for seams, and reading everything found on the web ,
it looks like the deck, cockpit sides and engine room walls are one piece,
that would make the liner floor, from transom to bow eye, cuddy and cuddy interior side walls one piece.

only reason for the pass, how to access the glue joints to get the liner out to repair the wood and what else would come up
connection with the liner.

some reading, forgot all about the vinyl texture through out, the optional bar in the seat is awesome.
but the seats and windshield are what sends it over the top.
