I wanted to post a few pics of the 67 222 that the forum led me to- I picked it up last month and I have since had the flip forward leaning post made, all canvas and upholstery done and a complete Lowrance Net system installed. I went with the LCX110C 10" with the fuel management system (love it). Here are some pics-

Great pics, thanks for sharing. I love the look of the motors on jackplates, for some reason, I just love the look of single V6 outboards on the back of Center Consoles. Kudo's to getting in the water to get the pics, I can see the drop of water that was on the lens, makes it look like smoke coming from the motor. That side shot and rear quarter shot are my favorites.

Beautiful job! Pictures look like they're out of a sales brochure and are a good kick in the --- for the rest of us with project boats.
Happy the site helped you with finding her. Sooner or later hanging around here on ClassicAS winds up costing money. Trust me, I know...

Nice work, Tim. She's a beaut! I am getting ready for a rebuild myself so you can expect some email from me asking for your input.
Gorgeous Boat!

Another "Maroon" guy. Looks great Tim. Looks like I need to re-evaluate my boot line in the front. Looks good following the chines or strakes or whatever they are.
You just need the new 8ft PowerPole to round it out. They're worth the money (well anyway, if you want one you'll pay the money). Get the new fast pump and remote too. 8)

Nice nice boat.
Good to see another splashed.
That bimini/hood in the front. Can you share the measurements on that? What to consider. Looks like it lays down as far up as possible w/o going over the bow.

Thanks all- I can honestly say that I will never sell this boat- (it has exceeded my expectations in every way) - IMO it's absolutely perfect for what I love to do- it truly runs in spit (with an excellent hole shot) and handles an excellent chop at 25-29 mph (very dry boat) I just (yesterday) put my flats boat up for sale because there is literally nothing that the flats boat can do that this one can't. Thank you all for your suggestions and recommendations.
Rayos-
I would suggest having the dodger made to rest directly along the gunnel and just forward of the "raised bow lip" mine was made prior to me buying the boat and I will have the next one made so that it doesn't intrude the forward deck when down (I loose aprox 3" of forward- see below pic) they made it like this based on the drivers ability to see through it while sitting under the previous seating configuration (sitting on live well)- now that I sit higher due to the leaning post I will have the next one raised to see through it rather than over it and also solve the problem of loosing the 3" of forward decking) -Also I had stainless quick release hardware installed on the dodger and bimini so that with a push of a button it all comes completely off for the days that I need a totally clear boat for fishing-
Rick-
Haven't decided on a Power Pole (I had one on my last tower boat and the only draw back is that it was another obstacle to work a fish around when fishing off-shore with a spread) maybe will.. still in the air -Dave really has made a great product that is perfect for inshore- I like to fish both and it’s a tradeoff.
JJ-
Thank you- I love the live well it actually goes through the deck and has the "keep alive system" you turn a valve and it injects oxygen through the inline

Thanks for the response. Will keep that in mind. Those Accon quick release clips are the best. I have similar deck cushions and they are great - my kids love them. Funny, my flats boats has seen very little use since the AS arrived a year ago.

The lighting really came out well. Have you had to install a new breaker panel to feed everything?

Good stuff Tim. It looks like the Keepalive system is going to be a requirement around here with the recurring red tide. I'm planning to add one to my baitwell. It sure is discouraging to spend an hour or more getting bait then have it die after you go through the pass.

What's a Keepalive system? A bubbler?

Thanks Jim,
Yep installed a new pos bus, a new neg bus, and a new/used Blue Seas panel that I had left over from a previous boat-
JJ you said it.. the tide has been brutal (I've been ok in the bay but around Egmont and Anna Maria it's been hit and miss this year with the red tide.
Jim it's an adaptor that goes between the bait pump and the seacock valve. It allows you to turn a small switch which takes outside air and mixes it with incoming livewell water.
Air is infused with the water at the pump impeller creating mass or min air flow into the tank. You can hook it up to simply aid air to the water coming in from the ocean/gulf or close the valve and allow it to recalculate from the tank with infused oxygen.
