I bought mine primarily because I had always wanted one. I can remember drooling over the 22-2's as a teenager on Perdido Bay in the 70's. I have also had a hankering to rebuild a boat and I decided I finally had the time and space to take on a project. Then I found this site, and the next thing I know I'm knee deep in rotten fiberglass and truly heinous old foam!
I figure I've got about $34k in my boat now. I certainly couldn't sell her for that, but what would a comparable new boat have set me back? Throw in the compliments and attention she gets, and it's a no brainer. The only problem is that the itch to start a new project is growing on me lately :)
