After riding in one of these boats in Homosassa , I had to Have one! Found this in Mass. for $500 on a good trailer. My first restoration, i have redone a console and replaced a transom, so my glass skills are newborn. This also my first attempt at a post, and i am sure i could use some tips in both areas.

Excellent find.  :thumright:

Side mount dive platform. Looks like the viewing windows may have been glassed over or were not there. :ScrChin:

That's an awesome find and at a great price for a hull that seems to be getting harder to find in near original condition. The subject says 19 but that is definitely a 222 flatback diver model. There seems to have been very few of them with the diver door. What year is the hull?

Thanks for sharing and definitely keep posting through the rebuild, PLEASE  :c017:

 Thanks guys!! I posted 19?? because I am not sure of the year. My research tells me like '68. To confirm the windows were never there , no evidence of being glassed over. Too bad, whoever bought originally didn't spring for the $40 option. hopefully i get a little better at pics and posts. glad to be aboard
