Getting close on a year she's been done!! Put a lot of hours running off shore or in the skinny waters on the flats. She's slowly getting all the BIG $$$$ items.  Do have to say that the 222 is a great all around boat have been offshore king fishing when the wonderful Florida weather turns and heading home in 5'-6' seas (will get a little wet) home safe and go right to the flats to get some snook and reds. Some of the weather I've been in couldn't even think of taking some of the newer build 22' "Bay Boats" in. Thanks to everyone for the advice on here and to everyone that posts thing was a lot of help to look at other post and see different angles everyone is doing things.

Super job. !!
Where are your NAV lights?  On the tower?
I like the layout of the front area of your cap.  I like the anchor locker access there instead of where mine is.

Yep in the tower. Tower came with tred and green working LEDs so kept them. Ya I wanted speakers in the from and the only way to do so was cover that area the  original anchor went. The  Challenge was trying to figure out how to make the hatch ended up taking the small hatched on my slcasting deck and using the smallest side to make a plug then made a mold off that worked well.

J what is your transom crown measurement looks really sweet. Like to know your center line measurement from the keel to the top of your transom cap. I'm just starting my transom pattern and have mine set at 37" inches. Curious as to what yours is.

You have and other pics or insight on what you used to raise the stringers?
Been awhile but have done a few things over the past few weeks.
