Welcome aboard Amandley.
Nice lookin' hull.
Where do you hang your hat?
Godd eveninig Capt Bob! Currently living the dream in Ponce, Puerto Rico. Although I believe the boat is originally a FL boat (I can see old FL registration numbers under a coat of paint).

Hi! My name's Nestor and I lived in Melbourne, FL. I just bought a 2001 Explorer 215 with a 200 Mercury 2 stroke in great shape and am slowly getting it ready to splash, installing new electronics and replacing some worn out components to ensure she's shipshape. Hope to learn a lot from y'all about this boat and thanks for welcoming me!

Welcome aboard Altaf!! It appears to be an Explorer model, which started in 90/91. What size is it?
The HIN (Hull ID Number) is usually stamped on the starboard outside of the transom. There are reports that there was also a HIN stamped under the rub rail in rear qtr on the port side.

Hi Rick.
The length is 20 feet. But we got it with an '87 Johnson 150 V6 so i guess the boat is a lot older that you thought. We recently upgraded to Two F100 Yamaha (Used) - Still waiting to test run.
There was a tag on the starboard side but the only thing recognizable is the max HP = 200
Its a walkaround with a small cabin. I've uploaded some photos in album.
Love the Aquasport!

Is that a big window in the cabin on the starboard side? Do you have any other pictures that show the cockpit, the cabin?

From what I am seeing is that it "could" be a Family Fisherman with the forward cap of the "Walkaround".
If you look at this catalog, you will see the sliding hatch into the cabin.

That would put it around the late '70s - maybe a one off?

Thanks Rick
I think itβs a custom β78 family fisherman.
A lot older than I thought but still in great shape.
We redone the floor and repaired the gas tank... changed engine, redone wiring.
Ready for fish!
Thanks again!

Hello all, just joined the aquasport club. I received a β87 (sorry Rick I told you β85) aquasport 200 osprey. It has a few flaws I hope to fix up, and start catching some fish.
