New 170 Owner -1986
« Reply #136 on: July 06, 2008, 03:19:39 PM »
Wow! I happened on a 1986 170 with a 1986 70 HP quite by accident. Bought it this Spring and sent it out for repairs to the electrical panel and a few other minor things. Must say I love reading all these posts, tho' don't understand at least 1/2 of what is said!  I am amazed at how rabid you all are about your Aquasports! Reminds me of Subaru Fans!   I am worrying a bit about my stringers now, but previously didn't even know it had them! LOL. Will be launching this week for my maiden voyage. My excitement has been added to by reading the posts of faithful Aquasport fans, and am curious why Aquasport is no longer built. A quick bio on the company would be appreciated!  Thanks.

Welcome aboard Elaine  :!:  :!:
And welcome to the ever growing 170 family  8)

The Aquasport history and Legend is a long robust one.  There is some general reading material in the photo gallery on the first page as you go in.  Hereis an example.

What has you worrying about your stringers?

Post some pics of your new jewel for all of us to see.

Again, welcome aboard.

Thanks Rick for your kind reply. I had read those articles when I first started lurking, but shall re-read them - over 50 - memory ain't what it used to be!  I shall take some pics today and try to post them. Hopefully, today is maiden voyage day. I am so excited! Have had a 14' open runabout for our 50 years (Dad's) of being on the ocean. Consider the AS my first "real" boat!  Met with alot of opposition buying the AS. (Nothing wrong with my boat!) From what I have read here, I unknowingly made a very wise purchase. I shall keep you posted.

I am only worried about stringers because of all the talk of having to rebuild them. The pics of their boats look as good as my boat. :cry:

Hello All, I'm a new member and new owner of a 1970 222 flatback. It's in great shape but needs a few upgrades. Looking for who did the custom Bow rail on "Passing Thru" Or if anyone know how to get a hold of the owner. All the best, Joe in Narragansett

Welcome aboard to all!  Try the search function and you can find pretty much any Aquasport detail or info.   :wink:

Ask questions and you will probably find someone can answer them - even sometimes correctly!  :oops:

See ya on the water!
