Hey all! I’m a guy from MA who has a 1968-69 222 flatback. A buddy of mine turned me on to this site as a resource after rehabbing a 175. The boat has no deck and is going to get a complete rebuild (yikes!) I’m going to make it a real work horse, very excited to get going. Thanks in advance folks!

Hey all. I bought my 2001 Osprey 215 Sport last August.  I have finally started to tinker around and found this group which I am sure will be a great help.  Looking forward to talking with everyone.

Welcome aboard As215. :salut:

I recall when the "dual console", "walkthrough", "bowrider" was known as the Sandpiper. A beautiful split console walkthrough sitting atop a 222-CCP hull but I digress.

Post up a few more pics.

Hello y’all just picked up a 78’ 222 shell w/hollow stringers and no transom. I’m green at this but have done enough research to get started!

As we were talking I am not sure where to direct you to start a rebuild thread.  The boat came with no cap so that doesn't help with the model but looking at your pics I think it might be on the Family Fisherman hull. Does it have any badging on the outside rear of the hull side?

If you want to post a pic when you talk about your boat, which you should, follow the instructions here http://classicaquasport.com/smf/index.php?topic=12725.0  - don't attach them - you are limited by file size. Uploading them into your personal gallery is better for viewing.
Spend a few minutes to absorb the instructions. It's really easy. Remember if using a phone to take pics, to hold the phone horizontal with the lens to the left.

I think I would post the same pic up here, using the link above for how to, and let the group give you opinions on what hull it is. The FF hull was used on a few of different models.

 :a0003: hello all,

My name is Paul located in Biloxi, MS just purchased my first boat so I can quit borrowing my father's. It's a 1972 22-2 with a 97 Merc V-175 efi. Hope to learn all I can from from those before me. It has a few minor soft spots in the casting deck but overall very pleased. After this summer I'll be starting to strip it down. I will be spending the summer months enjoying it all I can (while learning all I can) and then start ripping it apart to make it new again. Thank you all for having me aboard and for allowing me to be blessed with the knowledge on here.
