It is a beautiful boat made by a very recognizable brand and company. Upholstery is in amazing shape, must have been redone years before I purchased it, as there is just no way its original based on how it looks, though I have kept it in great shape. Engine is a 5.7L V8 OMC Cobra. Trailer is a custom Venture, probably worth half of what I’m asking alone. I bought the boat in February of 2022. Has been run on Saratoga Lake for 3 seasons. The water jacket on the engine had a crack in it when I purchased it. I JB welded and sealed up all the cracks. No leaks and no issues. There was no internal engine damage, as water has never mixed with oil and there are no performance issues with the engine. Engine has approx. 1160 hours (I can verify this when I get to the boat next). It’s still in the water right now, taking it out this week and winterizing. Every offseason I have changed the oil and filter, cleaned the flame arrestor and hoses, changed the fuel and water separator, drained the manifolds and blocks, fogged the engine, removed the battery, fill the block and hoses with antifreeze, sprayed the engine and drive with rust preventative, changed the lower unit gear oil, lubricated the gimbal housing, greased the trailer bearings, lubricated steering ram and actuator valve, drained pivot housing, acid washed the hull, stored the seats indoors. I have gotten 3 summers out of this boat. It is a great first boat. We have a pool now and so I’m using the boat less and less. Two offseason ago I replaced the spark plugs, thermostat, and rebuilt the starter. This last offseason I replaced the bilge pump, removed the lower unit, replaced the gimbal bearing and bellows, greased the U-joints, replaced the exhaust flappers. I have a new starter, Bimini tops, and a stainless-steel prop that will go with the buyer. I also have a winter cover that was purchased with this boat as well as the regular summer cover. This boat has been meticulously maintained over my 3 summers/years of ownership. Asking $5k for the boat and trailer and all that comes with it.<br>\n","original_price":"$4,000","price":6000,"year":1989,"size":23,"original_url":"https://albany.craigslist.org/boa/d/saratoga-springs-1989-donzi-ragazza-23/7791917436.html","createdAt":"2024-10-09T17:29:21.000Z","updatedAt":"2024-10-24T13:25:49.000Z","listAttrs":[{"id":9036791,"list_id":895612,"attr_name":"boat type","attr_content":"powerboat","createdAt":"2024-10-09T17:29:21.000Z","updatedAt":"2024-10-24T13:25:49.000Z"},{"id":9036792,"list_id":895612,"attr_name":"propulsion type","attr_content":"power","createdAt":"2024-10-09T17:29:21.000Z","updatedAt":"2024-10-24T13:25:49.000Z"},{"id":9036793,"list_id":895612,"attr_name":"condition","attr_content":"good","createdAt":"2024-10-09T17:29:21.000Z","updatedAt":"2024-10-24T13:25:49.000Z"},{"id":9036794,"list_id":895612,"attr_name":"engine hours (total)","attr_content":"1160","createdAt":"2024-10-09T17:29:21.000Z","updatedAt":"2024-10-24T13:25:49.000Z"},{"id":9036795,"list_id":895612,"attr_name":"length overall (LOA)","attr_content":"23","createdAt":"2024-10-09T17:29:21.000Z","updatedAt":"2024-10-24T13:25:49.000Z"},{"id":9036796,"list_id":895612,"attr_name":"make / manufacturer","attr_content":"Donzi","createdAt":"2024-10-09T17:29:21.000Z","updatedAt":"2024-10-24T13:25:49.000Z"},{"id":9036797,"list_id":895612,"attr_name":"model name / number","attr_content":"Ragazza","createdAt":"2024-10-09T17:29:21.000Z","updatedAt":"2024-10-24T13:25:49.000Z"},{"id":9036798,"list_id":895612,"attr_name":"year manufactured","attr_content":"1989","createdAt":"2024-10-09T17:29:21.000Z","updatedAt":"2024-10-24T13:25:49.000Z"}],"listImgs":[{"id":12237002,"list_id":895612,"img_url":"https://images.craigslist.org/00n0n_8tNIxz5OHKa_09G07g_600x450.jpg","img":"1989-Donzi-Ragazza-23-with-Custom-Venture-Trailer-442a19","createdAt":"2024-10-09T17:29:21.000Z","updatedAt":"2024-10-24T13:25:49.000Z"},{"id":12237003,"list_id":895612,"img_url":"https://images.craigslist.org/00V0V_hlVpuA2K5m6_0jm0pO_600x450.jpg","img":"1989-Donzi-Ragazza-23-with-Custom-Venture-Trailer-442a19","createdAt":"2024-10-09T17:29:21.000Z","updatedAt":"2024-10-24T13:25:49.000Z"},{"id":12237004,"list_id":895612,"img_url":"https://images.craigslist.org/00w0w_bVjak50prCo_09G07g_600x450.jpg","img":"1989-Donzi-Ragazza-23-with-Custom-Venture-Trailer-442a19","createdAt":"2024-10-09T17:29:21.000Z","updatedAt":"2024-10-24T13:25:49.000Z"},{"id":12237005,"list_id":895612,"img_url":"https://images.craigslist.org/00f0f_3ipqK5CxYG1_0dq0t2_600x450.jpg","img":"1989-Donzi-Ragazza-23-with-Custom-Venture-Trailer-442a19","createdAt":"2024-10-09T17:29:21.000Z","updatedAt":"2024-10-24T13:25:49.000Z"}]}
