Good luck.

New to the site..Live on the Treasure Coast of Florida (Stuart/Palm City), Owned small Bass Boats, Kayaks and Dingy but now after 20 years of waiting just bought a 95 Osprey Center Console 23ft. Love, and will always be backwater fishing... but finally get to fish the ocean one MY OWN boat! It still at the sellers dock, have her towed to the ramp this week and going to prep her for a brand New Honda or Suzuki.  My first "big boat".lol My wife and I are very excited to share this with family and friends! I hope I made a good choice-I got a great deal on the boat. Here are some pics I took yesterday when I bought it..Need some tLc, but has lots of perks to it, outriggers, fresh water wash down, stereo, live well built in, T-Top, T-Top spray windshield, brand new custom storage cover, new bow cushions and a box of electronics that go on the dash. Can't wait to get her home this week.

Tyler from West TN here. Got a 1972 Aquasport and I dont know what model it is. Will post pictures and serial plate









Got some color matching motor paint coming on the way. Got a little tipsy the first day I had it and allowed my cousin to talk me into painting it volunteer orange lmao

I got it with a 1990 140hp johnson and a trailor with new rims and tires from a family friend in IRS trouble for $700. Got it out this weekend. Fired right up and ran amazing for a motor that had been sitting for three years. I cant get the lights to come on or the horn to work. First time boat owner.

  Tyler.
What you have purchased is an Osprey.  On the outside of the transom there could be a Hull ID stamped into the gelcoat.  That's the first year they required HIN, so that is why I said "could".
I edited the links you posted - you were real close. Anyway, when using photobucket when you click on a pic and it appears, to the right you'll see a area that says "Share Links" and right below that you see IMG and a box to the right of it. Click in that box and it copies the correct code to your device memory so all you need to do is paste it into your post.

Came up with C54100ASP72

Which must be a manufacturer serial number because its not any HIN format

Do you know the official name of the green color on these boats. Looking to paint it properly and have my father in law working on some Decals for the sides

[Capt. Bob]

Welcome aboard Tyler.

I'd say that's a 170.

Great site! I am a charter captain looking to rebuild a 1982-222 into a tower boat. So looking for knowledge and ideas from fellow enthusiast.  Thanks.

Hello everyone! I'm Logan, I'm from south central Florida. I've been lurking as a guest for a few months now and decided to take the leap into membership. Last year I purchased a 1970 24' proline that was redone in 2003 with hopes of one day soon having it redone again to my specifications. I Love the idea of restoring classic boats and I love this site so far. I am excited to be a part of what appears to be a great community.

[RickK]

  Randy and Logan.  We certainly have plenty of rebuilds here to satisfy your rebuild appetite (Logan I see it didn't take you long to find the "Other Classic Rebuilds" forum for some Proline rebuilds) and lots of helpful members hanging around to answer your questions.

[Lnicker1]

Haha yea didn't take me long to dive in head first! I'm infatuated with these old boats and their rebuilds. Thanks for the welcoming Rick!

[Capt. Bob]

Welcome aboard to you both.

Just Purchased my first boat. Shes a 1986 222 osprey. Found in not too far from here in MD. Very excited for this upcoming Striper season. Glad I found this forum. Shes a solid hull with a few soft spots in the floor which I hope to limp by for a while with some epoxy injection.

[RickK]

I see you found the recent topic about the injection.
Congrats on the purchase - she looks to be in good shape. 8)
