what is it

[Editor]

We know, it's a yellow Corvette parked on the lawn by some a-hole owner. And yes, we know that calling a Corvette owner an a-hole is redundant, but do you know anything about what this boat is? Then jump on in and tell us.

don't know, it's a nice hull though...but will you tell us in the end? cause I always fail to see the correct answer at the end of these smart ass contests here, correct me if I'm wrong!

the Hawaii plates on the corvette were a tipoff

The CORRECT answer is the Donovan D6 (for the construction guys, it takes 37.5 of these to weigh as much as a Catepillar D6), but I cheat because it's my driveway and Al's Garage and Boatshop (My Dad was Al)where Jim has created it. What started as 8 to 10 weeks in my shop has celebrated it's 9 month annivesary. I would love to say it's because Jim is slow, but that's not it. He's just a perfectionist. He spent a week building and fairning the trailer rests and they still aren't done! Trust me, this boat is going to be awesome!

BTW the guy who owns the Vette also owns a matching Chevy truck. Tacky as hell, but he's actually a pretty nice guy...and his chick is totally hot!

I really hoped the Corvette belonged to Jim Donovan's wife and it was going to be the Editor shown up as the 'a-hole'. Never mind.

Hawaii plates? Christ almighty, I can't squint my eyes that much without tearing.

Did you really have a what is it for a boat that has a ten page thread on this very site?

Made me look at the thread for the first time, interesting I found. Thanks Ed.

That's not right calling all vette owners a-holes.

They are cool looking cars and are AMERICAN MADE!!!!

So useless and A-hole would be a more descriptive phrase? ( :lol:

The C6 is one of the best values in performance cars anywhere. You get way more than you pay for, compared to most performance cars. It handles really well and is a very livable daily driver. It may be the best car built in America.

Yes, Corvette owners tend to reinforce the douche image, as do Porsche owners. That image is main reason not to own one.

If I had one, I'd sticker it up like this:

as for the curvett, no unintended acceleration!
