I ONLY NEED TO 8" (12") WOULD BE MORE THAN ENOUGH TO BE COMFORTABLE. WE ARE GETTING RID OF OLD TRANSON WITH THE CUT OUT AND BUILDING NEW TRANSON STRAIGHT ACROSS WITH COOSA BOARD, GLASS MAN IS ADDING A CAP ACROSS BACK EITHER WAY WE GO. WE ALREADY HAVE ENOUGH HYDRO LINE FOR STEERING AND ALL LINES ARE GOOD. MY PARTNER IN THIS BOAT IS CONCERNING ABOUT SELLING DOWN THE ROAD (NOT BEING A TRUE 22-2) AND WILL ADDING LENGTH AFFECT COMING OUT OF HOLE OR THE RIDE (BOAT HAS TRIM TABS AND JACK PLATE) GLASS MAN SAID IT WOULD NOT BE REAL BAD SINCE NEW TRANSOM IS GOING ON , HE SAID HE LACES GLASS INTO STRINGERS WITH ALUM STOCK AND IS SANDWICHING COOSA BOARD AND GLASS TO FORM NEW TRANSON?

Are you referring to getting rid of a splashwell or similar from the back interior of the boat? If so then yes if that layout is something you like then go for it no harm done to nostalgia of the boat.
But if you're considering actually lengthening the boat 6" to 8", I wouldn't go through the work of lengthening anything if you're only going to gain a few inches. It's a lot of work. Hull sides, cap, bottom, all needs to be tied in structurally sound. Will control cables now be too short? Probably a lot of other stuff.

I CURRENTLY ON A TOTAL RESTORATION WITH MY 22-2 (1971). TRANSON HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN REPLACED AND JOB WAS NOT GOOD, SO WE ARE BUILDING NEW COOSA BOARD TRANSON. IN THIS PROCESS OF NEW TRANSON AND STRINGERS MY GLASS MAN SAID IT WOULD BE EASY TO ADD 6" PR 8" TO THE REAR TO GIVE MORE ROOM BEHIND LEANING POST LIVEWELL. WHAT ARE PROS AND CONS? WE IT TAKE AWAY FROM THE " 22-2 " NOSTALGIA IF WE HAPPEN TO SELL DOWN THE ROAD?

If they stay, then maybe one of those oscillating multi tools to cut a triangle out of the corner, but I hear ya it's a tough spot to work in even w the multi tool.
I tried building up the floor w thickened resin to make the water want to go around my issue, didn't work too well.

I call it the “pot roast”. It’s a hollowed out knot of a tree that I converted into a bird house. I was prepping firewood one day and it bought my eye. I’m always building something. As I often say the only thing I can’t create is a fortune.

Looks great Ulysses. Is that the hidden HIN tag I see in the 2nd pic?
Yeah it’s coming , yes that’s the hidden HIN that I reinstalled. You’re going to love that motor, I have that one on my 205 osprey.Effortless
Cruising @28mph and will get to 40+ when conditions allow. I’m looking forward to it. Runs soo smooth!
