Default Donzi 26zx specs and boating mag review

Does anyone have a link to the specs for the donzi 26 zx and a link to the review that boating magazine did on the boat? I have searched for both and come up with nothing.

And on a side note.. are all 26zx hulls the same or were there changes made while the boat was still being made?

Thanks

you can buy if from powerboat magazine as a download. i've done this, but i don't think I should share it since it's copyrighted mat'l. also, i've got one for sale if anyone is interested, they are great boats.

they made changes as they went along....i believe that from 2003 onwards they launched a new hull with a notched transom....also rumour has it that the X-dimension varies on that hull.....i have a 1999 model and it rocks in rough water and with big power is some serious fun !! bad ass boat, i believe that its the best boat in its class and size !!! will surely recommend, especially in big water and offshore....

So far I love my 05. What is the best prop for this set up, 496 ho. I only get 62 mph on my 4 blade bravo 1. Tried a 3 blade 25 and kept blowing it out.

You should see about 68-69 in fresh water and 70 in saltwater. Factory prop is a 24" Bravo (4 blade)

I fractured a blade on my prop this summer, and ended up trying out all sorts of different ones. All the 3 blades kept blowing out. The 4-blade you've got gave me the best results. I'm thinking of seeing if Spinelli can do anything to it. Where do you boat?
