 Thank you for having me everyone. I'm just starting a 222 flat back rebuild now and wanted to see the projects you've done in the past.

Hello all, new here.

I recently got this hull, but no documents or identifying features. I am hoping to overhaul it into something nice, but probably wont start that project until the fall.

I am not sure if this is a 22.2 flat back, or proline 24, or something totally different. Any guesses?

Welcome aboard  :salut2:
I guess the fastest way to rule out one of the models is with a tape measure.  AS didn't make a 24 footer.

Welcome Scott  :salut2:
Do you have more pics of the inside and especially the bottom of the hull at the transom so we can see the special hull design of the 191?

So I actually got over to the boat today, and did just that. She measures 24'. One of the things that was throwing me off was that I thought the Pro-Line's had running strakes or chines, which this does not.

Spend some time browsing through the rebuilds in this forum http://classicaquasport.com/smf/index.php?board=14.0
See if you see the same lines on the 24 Proline.

Hello my Name is David and I own Vantage Point Graphics.

We are a custom graphics shop specializing in boat decals.

I found this forum while looking for a logo for a customer. Always good to see good forums where people share information. I have found many solutions to challenges by people willing to share how they resolved something, so Thank You.

For what its worth a good friend of mine used to have an Aquasport Osprey and we had some fun fishing trips in the Tampa Bay.

Thanks,
David

the name's Tyson.
I had 2 gheenoes (classic & 13 nmz) But I just sold them because a family friend is going through a divorce and offered me his aquasport 170 With a 4stroke 115 Yamaha on it.
going to check it out this weekend down in west palm beach. More than likely I'll be picking it up and brining it up to land o lakes with me.

I'm always down to meet people from the area to fish as I'm still trying to land my first redfish since moving up here last year from west Palm beach.

Well hello everybody!!  :s_hi:

Just picked up my new sled - 2003 Explorer 225 - Tournament Edition and I'm now ready to dive into all the "little" projects that come with buying a "new" used boat. You know what I'm talking about - depth sounder working intermittently, live well and fish well pump not working, compounding and waxing the beast, replacing the courtesy lights with LEDs, installing a drain plug LED etc, etc, etc.

Just wanted to give you all fair warning – I ask a lot of questions and some of them are stupid!

Welcome aboard Richard. :salut:

Feel free to ask away. What you may feel is a stupid question is really more information for me and the Forum. Your hull is mine, 12 years later.

Here's a little reading to get you started.
http://www.classicaquasport.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=750

And some specs of your hull.


Good luck on your new craft. :thumright:
