1973 Aquasport
I have a 1973 Aquasport 22' CC with a Merc 125 Sal****er. I love it and
want to bring it back to its original condition or better. They were extremely common boats here (Cape Cod) years ago. The 3 most popular boats at the time were Mako, Aquasport and Boston Whalers. However I can find zero information about the older Aquasports. The original company is no longer and the new company is of no help. Here is what I'm looking for: Stringer configuration Original Specs (weight, max power) What is beneath the bow storage compartments I am NOT a boat builder, just a guy who fishes way too much. I built my own console last year that worked out great. Before I go removing the deck I want to know what to expect. This will be a winter project but I'm trying to gather as much info as possible now. Any information would be appreciated. I have down lots of Google searches with very little success. Local boatyards aren't much help since I'm not giving them any money. Nick |

I was at the factory some time in 1968 and my father bought the test mule for the 19 footer. I grew up with the Sargents of Southwest Harbor, Maine. I don't remember now which Sargent was part of Aquasport but he is long gone now so that won't help. Good luck with your search. -- Phil Davis 247PalmBeachRE.com |
