I just got in a new 22 liberator

Here's some pics of a new 22 Liberator I just got in. It has a silver carbon and black interior. It will get rigged with a new 300R soon

Needs a red pinstripe around the black!

**WILDMAN** · 12-29-2018, 09:29 PM

I can add any colors someone wants. This boat is all gelcoat

Randy, can the 22 have a flat floor, or is there not enough freeboard for that?

**WILDMAN** · 12-29-2018, 11:25 PM

It can if you want one

Another insane build-up! Just awesome, looking forward to your progress.

Randy do you make many structural changes on the new boats vrs. the ones in the past?

**WILDMAN** · 12-30-2018, 01:58 PM

On my Liberators all the bulkheads and transoms are composite. Texas ones are still plywood. On my 25's I add alot of structure support and 4 knees instead of two if I add my custom rear. You could put 3 or 4 300's on the 25 transom. When I cap the front, I add alot more glass and strength. The standard layup has absolutley no issues as long as it's composite.

Not to knock the construction for the liberator, but it looks nothing like a cougar. Ours has aluminum knee braces bolted to solid wood stringer. Just saying

Maybe because the Cougar transoms are too weak to be non supported! I've never seen a stress crack anywhere near the transom area in a Liberator. If they are built strong enough, they won't need supports. I beat the crap out of my 21 with twin 280's for 12 years without any stress cracks or issues.

Randy, so glad to see another 22, just love them. Another silly question,what do you think of finishing the floors out and using Seadek on the flats in in place of carpet?

**WILDMAN** · 12-30-2018, 07:51 PM

I thought about it. I'll do whatever someone wants.

It' gorgeous- let' see what he has in mind for guages , and finished rigging through out . I believe he is a guy to go to if you like excellence and value !
