I spoke to Ted Drum in my research. Helpful and nice but did not know anything about the Marina Seven boat. I always thought that Cox's Lauderdale Marina was the first Boston Whaler dealer. I never knew that they were a Donzi dealer in 1965 as you mentioned, never mind one of the first two in Florida.

Bottom center is a portion of Bob's Lauderdale Marina. Port Everglades pretty much the whole top half of the photo. Inlet with a cargo ship leaving, top left. Pier 66 marina, etc., on the left, this side of bridge. Its in new owners hands now, but Bob owned the commercial property on the other side of the 17th Street bridge, on the left. Back in the 70's, Bob mentioned to us that he made more money every month in rent on that, than he originally paid for the property. Coincidentally, my neighbor Brien & his dad control that same strip of land on the Intracoastal today. I think they paid 12 large for it. They are going to develop it into a phenominal marina "based" development, called "The Sails". www.TheSails.com It takes many years to develop here these days.

Ed Joyce must have been a unique dude in his own right. 1963 he ran an OB boat from Florida to New York Harbor & hit ice along the way. Not the "Marina Seven" as the Donzi 19 wasn't built yet.

Ed Joyce was a VERY accomplished man himself. With and without his friend Bob.

Now I'm kinda into it so I'm going to continue the Hunt for Red October.
There is evidently a lot of info on Ed Joyce, Bob Cox and the Marina Seven boat in the June 1965 issue of Popular Boating Magazine. Does anyone happen to have that issue hanging around?

I thought it might have been the January 2, 1965 "Orange Bowl Regatta 9 Hour" Endurance Race "Class A" win.
What's interesting is the number on the side of the boat in the two different photos. #17 in your picture and #11 in the factory advertisement photo? Evidently, Bob Cox also had a 16 in addition to the Hornet 19 OB that he and Ed Joyce campaigned but I need that June, 1965 issue of Popular Boating to get more info on that.
