1992 Donzi 18 Classic

Stock # 182104
1992 Donzi Classic 18. 351 Ford Engine.

The 1992 Donzi Classic 18 is one of the most iconic small performance boats ever built. Known for its legendary deep-V hull designed by Don Aronow, the Classic 18 delivers a rare combination of vintage styling, offshore-capable ride quality, and thrilling performance. This particular example is an exceptional time-capsule boat with extremely low use and careful storage throughout its life.

Powered by a Ford 351 V8 paired with an OMC sterndrive, this boat delivers strong torque and the unmistakable sound and performance that made Donzi famous. With only approximately 20 total hours on the engine, this Classic has seen remarkably little use and remains in outstanding condition.

The boat was originally purchased from a lakefront owner and has been used only a handful of times since. For the last decade it has been stored inside a boathouse on a custom dolly, protecting the hull and interior from sun exposure and weather. As a result, the white and turquoise gelcoat and white interior present extremely well, maintaining the clean, timeless look that defines the Donzi Classic series.

Compact, fast, and collectible, the Classic 18 remains highly sought after by performance boat enthusiasts and collectors alike. Whether used as a high-performance lake cruiser, a collector's piece, or a weekend toy, this boat represents a rare opportunity to own an exceptionally preserved example of one of boating's most recognizable models.

Located outside Olympia, Washington.
No trailer included.
