Classified / 1985 222 CCP for sale in FL
« Last post by Mgbweiler on December 09, 2024, 01:00:33 PM »
I’ve had this boat for 3 years and only got to use it once. :/ Too many conflicting time obligations.

3 year old upholstery, tilt and trim
T top with canvas in excellent condition
2 bilge pumps
Hydraulic steering
Trim tabs

2 brand new batteries


2002 Mercury 200HP in good working order.
1973 Loadmaster Aluminum trailer, in good working order.


Two small soft spots. I have pictures in my gallery. I have videos of the motor running and of my wife stepping on a soft spot, though the floor didn’t move much so not sure that is helpful. It’s been stored on the trailer, was serviced by an outboard mechanic in September. Tires are good, hull is in good condition and was thoroughly cleaned this summer. I’m looking for a new owner who will appreciate the boat. $8000 for boat, trailer, and motor.

Email me with any questions. This boat is ready to use, though I’m sure there are lots of fun improvements that could be made. Located in Gainesville FL.

Got a little breeze from some of the Florida hurricanes this summer and the oldest carport, almost 4years old, gave up. Thankfully, they sell replacements for them and they are fairly reasonable and easy to replace.


Finally getting the transom prepped to set into the outer skin..
Two (2) Layers of 1708 on the inside of the transom. Got it trimmed, grinded down and rounded edges for it to be set in core bond soon. Transom for the 240 is on right @ 1.5'' thick. The other is the transom for the 222 flatback I am also building.




Got the inside skin grinded down and taped off to prevent the corebond to creep on the rest of the glass and eliminate a little cleanup. If all goes as planned, I should have the transom set in this week and hopefully the inside glassed in by the weeked.

Sorry to hear about your mom.  Never enough time and you always think of ways you should have spent it differently.  Hard labor, like working on a boat, is always a good distraction. Through our sin we all put Jesus on the cross and because of that we all get forgiveness and comfort. It's weird, but somewhere in there is some positive.
Thanks for the kind words brother. I have peace knowing she is now without pain in heaven with our lord and savior!

Did a quick test fit for my DIY 2x4 clamps. Should do the trick!


Decided to put a tape line on the inside where the core bond will eventually ooze out. I marked just outside the coosa when it was set in place with magic marker. This should help me from having too much cleanup after I create a radius to the inside corners. Once I get the radius completed I can pull the tape for no cleanup...at least that's the plan. We will see how it goes.

Aquasport Discussion / 96 225 Osprey Console cover recommendations
« Last post by mattgto on December 08, 2024, 03:12:04 PM »
Hey all,

Just finished re covering the seat built in to the center console and replacing the windshield. Does anyone have a recommendation on a console cover that will fit over the seat built in to the console?
