**Engine needs new Flywheel Ring Gear** The damage occurred do to inferior starter bolts in May of 2015.The boat was functioning flawlessly upuntilthis point.I have a new marine quality ring gear to go with boat. It will cost appox. $50.00 +/- to have it installed at Machine Shop or free if you do it yourself. Labor is 6 +/- hours work time. I have no means to make repair at this time and have other projects needing my attention, so thishas put the boat on the back burner and I really hate to see it sit any longer. So this Donzi is now up for Auction: 1990 Donzi GT190 with 4.3 (2 brl. 175 hp. / only other engine available in this model was 4 cyl. 150 hp.) OMC Cobra outdrive. Engine was running great and outdrive was working great last time boat was in use. I am the second owner of this boat and it has approximately 550 hours on everything. I installed GM marine gaskets fromblock up last year and cleaned water jackets completely. A new fuel pump was installed at this time along with new starterand theboat ran without issue after repairs were made in August of 2014. Oil always changed and maintenance always performed. Also have receipts going back to original bill of sale. Good battery and the only things not functioning properly, other than previously noted are the running lights and glove box light, the lights need wired. Also the gas gauge reading is off, you need to be getting gas when it approaches a 1/4 tank, andthe trim gauge sending unit needs replaced, the gauge works fine. The interior is ingood condition considering the age with some sections in need of repair. Also, the center section of floor is soft and will need repair eventually.Iused pressure treated wood over the bad spot and it works fine, although the soft spot has grown over the last year. Boat runs out at 45+ mph 1/2 tank gas (28 gal. aluminum tank) and one person, and will top out at 40+ with 4 passengers. Will run out 35+ mph with full boat and tuber with 13x17 stainless propeller, but this propover revs at wide open throttle without a large load in boat, so I use bigger 14x19 for day to day use, which tachs out perfectly. Boat has 8 passenger 1200lb capacity. I was using boat regularly up until a May 2015 when I thought the starter went bad, but it turn out the flywheel needs replaced.;
***** Note: This Donzi is 26 years old.The condition is far from new and far from junk, you will have to decide where it lies between the two.**The reserve is low and highest bidder will own this Donzi**
