New owner of a 1977 ? 22-2 CCP

[gman 82 aquasport]

Finally pulled the trigger and picked up a 222 CCP with a lot of help from J Dupree ..he found one in the trees down at Harkers Island and after a lot of chasing around, found the owner and JD got in touch with him and after 2 months of phone tag and text tag, I meet up with him today and paid for it and got a bill of sale. Now to get the time to go back down with 4 new tires and hubs and get her out of the bushes and remove 4 inches of leaves, vines and whatever else is in the hull. The floor is totally shot , transom seems fair but will be redone for a bracket. Will get a rewire and console redone along with the coffin box. Stay tuned, pics will follow soon, this will be a long project..It also comes on a trailer..

Congrats Gman

OK, Gary - you got her!     Now the fun begins.  I assume it has the coffin and is complete.  Post some pics "as is" with the vines and stuff so we get a good "before" picture.  That will make the "after" picture SO much better!

Good job Gary, congrats!!

Congrats Garry   Now we need to get back down there and get her ready for a road trip

[jdupree]

I will help him out with the pictures since I already have them.  These were taken a couple of years ago, so she is a little dirtier

A lot of teak on that one too JD.

She'll look good cleaned up.

Good luck.

It's amazing to see things growing in a boat.

Yeah, she has about 4 inches of leaves and stuff in her now, you can't see the floor..the tires are flat and pretty much dry rotted. but when she gets rolling, I will hose her down and out the when I get her back this way I will remove the console and the coffin box, then the tank cover and the tank, that should be interesting, no telling what the tank looks like..then I will cut the transom apart from the inside the get her ready for a new full transom, she will be getting a bracket. My plan is a full transom, bracket, live well at the transom, new floor, wiring, plumbing, redo the coffin box and console, add a t-top, then sell my 19-6 and put a motor on her..time frame 12-18 months.. as long as not to many headaches involved will get some newer pics when I go to get her then some after a little clean up..The teak may not make it back on the rebuild

A good road trip will clean all the stuff out of it

I would like to claim the teak anchor locker door for my 246 if you decide not to use it

[gman 82 aquasport]

Consider it yours, after all you've done to get this deal done , it's the least I could do.
