I am getting ready to pull trigger on a new boat. I found these boats for sale both new for 89,900.00 Figured you Donzi experts could tell me the diffrence (speed, handling, fuel cost, maintenance) TX

Twin 350 Mags... only way to go. Single 496HO doesn't have the power and will kill you on resale. The gas difference isn't all that much.

We have both a 2005 26 ZX with a 496 she will run at 65MPH and a 28 ZX with T350 Mags she will run 70 mph. The 28 has a much better ride because of the extra weight and she is a much better Ocean boat: hey give me a call I have a great price on both boats. 732-477-6157

Left message with your secretary..

Where do you like to boat at Bob?

I'd be curious what the 28 would do with a single 525efi vs. t-350's. I'm willing to bet a single 525 would perform equal if not better than a twin setup. Less fuel, maintenance & weight? Price should be close to the same also.

I have been Boating at lake mead in Las Vegas(last 5 years). Just moved back to east coast though so I will be boating in Myrtle Beach and Southern Jersey. So i want something that can handle the ocean. I am going to the AC boat show so hopefully have a new ride soon. Just sold my bayliner ( no wise cracks now he he)

I have considered the 525 but 1 year warranty is a real turn off. vs 5 years with the t 350 or 496ho. Cost could get crazy i figure with no warranty.

If you go with the 28, Stay with twins: I have a 26 ZX with a single 502 and she only runs 65mph even with a 525 in a 28 you are looking at 72 mph. But with a single engine she wil wander from side to side were a twin engine boat will not, also when launch off a wave the twin lays more level then a single. Plus Resale is much better with twins

Bring a 28 ZR with twins to the AC boat show and ill buy it! I want a ZR they need to make that? (any plans for a smaller ZR?) was looking at you ZR post at show. SWEET!!
