I saw the ad for it the other day. I actually thought about it but my wife would kill me if I brought another project home. I have always liked the look of those old flatbacks.

Sorry to see it go, good luck with the sale.

Thanks Mike - hopefully someone from the forum is looking for a good deal - I'm asking $2200 for everything including all the materials and canopy

Good Evening everyone!

I picked this up from Nigel today, and it just seems right to continue his thread as the build goes forward. I have a 1977 222, that we use as a crab and mullet boat, but my wife wants something a little more kid and sandbar friendly.

I am sure I will have a ton of questions, and will do my best to search the forum and try to only ask for clarification of things I don’t understand.

The end state for the boat will be to run a 175 Verado on a porta bracket with a 1/2 tower (not a fan of tall towers on small boats). I’m sure I’ll find a ton of things to add as I search around.

Nigel was awesome to deal with. I found the boat listed elsewhere since I wasn’t a member here, and after I joined the forum he honored the price he had it listed for here which was a little less. Pretty cool thing to do in my opinion.

Time to start grinding away. Literally.

Chris

I have posted this back in the classified section.

Life has taken a turn and I doubt I will be able to touch this project for some time.

Wish I could have gotten to it, but it wasn't meant to be.
