Donzi Sweet 16, first surfaced, 45 years ago. It was designed by master boat designers, Walt Walters and Jim Wnynn. It was put into production by builder, Don Aronow. It was the first boat that was manufactured by Aronow’s company, Donzi Marine. It can reach a speed of over 50 mph, and it’s a great boat for boating enthusiasts of all levels, due to it’s small size it’s extremely fun. In 1974 Grady-White produced a 19 footer, walk-around sytle boat, in the ‘Adventure 208′. A year later the, 204-C Hatterras, was produced. Grady-White has had the most endurance with walk-around boats.Didn’t catch that? This explains it. Out of the New England area, Bill Dyer, produced, the Great Constant, Dyer 29. It can go up to 15 mph, and was designed for comfort not speed. The cockpit, is massive, almost half the length of the boat, and it’s designed to last. A cult like following would describe fans of the 90′s fiberglass deck boat, Sea Ray 240 Sundeck. The first boat to use a true V-Hull. It still has a squared off front deck, and can fit 10. Chris-Craft Launch 25 surfaced in the 90′s. Michael Peters, designed a future of classics that were built to last.
