Howdy everyone. I can now proudly say I'm part of the aquasport family. My wife and I just picked up a 72 22-2. We are both true florida crackers. We roam around the southwest fl region but call Sarasota county home. I mainly fish boca grande/ charlotte harbor. We also enjoy anything else outdoors along with our 2 year old son. Hope to see y'all on the water.

Welcome aboard BC!!!

I totally expected you to be from the northeast based on your screen name.   :lol:  Glad to have you.

Post your original size pics in the photo gallery and show the gang your boat. The 222 is the fleet classic so you should be proud.  Is it original, rebuilt, or something in between?

Hello everyone,

Thanks for having me in the forum. My name is Scott and I have had a 92 230-Explorer for several years. I have referenced some of your work here and love seeing the extensive projects. I love the classic Aquasports. I have previously owned an Osprey 175. Looking for a future project of my own now.

Hey guys new member here. I have been snooping around the last year on this site never joined because I never had a aquasport. I am now a proud owner of a 1974 19-6 I got about 3 months ago. The boat is practically new. A local boat builder and the previous owner rebuilt the entire boat, gutted it and started with the shell. They did an amazing job only thing I would have changed and they agree was rais the floor up a little more but I can't complain to much the boat runs great. This site has been awesome for info. Thanks to all that have posted glad to be a member

Yes Im in good old Punta Gorda.. I have lived here my entire life. I am just now really exploring everything thats around here from the water. I have owned flats boats here but allways hated going up the west wall or trying to cross  the harbor most days bc id get beat to crap. Now that i have the 19-6 id go anywhere shallow, deep i love it.

Hello All!
I purchased my second Aquasport boat about a month ago - a 1992 230 Osprey with two 2004 Suzuki DF140's on a bracket.
I previously owned a 17' but sold it about 10 years back thinking I would buy another CC boat in the next few months.
It has taken longer than expected but I'm finally back in business.
I didn't expect to end up with another Aquasport - but it's not like I had problems with my 17' besides it being a little small for dive trips 20 miles out :)

I of course have tons of question but will post them in a more appropriate area.
