22" Velocity outboards

[fast fun 2]

Actually we were IN First when we shut her down.
Class 7 is going to be great next year-we should have at least 10 boats, possibly 12. Kevin from Fuller's Marine captured the picture that Johnny posted in post 1392-this picture is the definition of Class 7/SOB racing!!!!!

I stand corrected
Not being in this class is killing me...its the perfect class! Can't wait to see 10+ boats out in it next year

What prop are you running with the 250 etec. I am running a 225ho etec with a tropy 27 at 75mph on gps motor mounted flat on the back with one more hole too move up. I was offered a 250ho from a friend who is selling his boat and was wondering if swapping a 225ho for a 250 ho is worth the work. Any advise would be appreciated.

Mark Henderson was nice enough to let me throttle his 22 at the OPA World Championships. I was in the boat on Sat for testing. WHAT a blast! Loved it! Didnt land quite as nice as the Cobra but still had fun
Took 95lbs up front to make it a good ocean boat with a 3.0 on the back though...ended up flying nice!Attachment 287327

Great picture. Looks like the perfect setup.

step built not regal, mostly original ,but needs some tlc .... was looking at yours just too far away

[mach1magnum]

nice looking boat enjoy so it is an 84 with a cabin? had an 86 myself but no cabins yet i thought

[northernoffshore]

i guess so with all the teak for the windshield mounts and transom pieces , i didn't think cabins came on the step boats but here it is. I had an 87 before that was a regal, the gel coat had hairline cracks all over the it and the deck never was fit right on it. here a pic of that 1

Original is right. 1984 was the first year of production for the 22's. Someone has stored that one inside, for a very long time. I remember building it at the Pompano plant. Congradulations on a nice find.

thanks , its cool that you built it.

[mach1magnum]

how many got built with the cabin in the early years?

[Fast Shafts]

Northern, your boat would look even better with a class 7 number on it! Congrats on the new boat

Im seriouly thinking that also ... Have a lot of good parts saved up for it SM Jack plate, small set back box and maybe even a promax powerhead. It needs a floor and transom. Anyone have a side mount steering system for a 2.5 for sale . Latham, Hynautic, marine machine. Save me # 733
