Default 79 Donzi 18 2+3

As stated, I brought a 79 18 2+3 back from Michigan. The boat has been sitting since 98. I took a good friend with me and we checked everything with a moisture meter and all checked out good!! I have a nice little 9.5-1 355 that is going in it. The drive is original to the boat, but the original 260 5.7 was toast. I'll be resurrecting this piece of history, once I hear from a dog bite.

The boat sits on its original Douglas trailer, with surge brakes.

Here's the 355. It has Speed Pro pistons and an Indmar 300hp roller cam with all new valve train and lifters.

Sweet little boat.
Don't forget to a thorough inspection of the gas tank though .

I will perform a tank inspection, once I get use of my hand. The foam doesn't smell of fuel, nor does the hull so I'm hoping I'll be in good shape.
