Re: What is a 1986 Velocity 22 worth?
 

DKearns,you must be talkin about my buddy Bob,and we met just last week in Woodys Crab house.Yes the 22 is a great boat once you learn how to run it,just like any other real Velocity,I can not comment on the Regal because I have never driven a Regal built hull.The thing you need to understand and you can ask Bob,the boat is a drivers boat and you will need to not be scared of running it on the pad.The reason Bobs boats always lasted is because he always knew how to run them as well as he spared no expence when putting them together,he always used the best parts and he was one of the best at driving the hull,he helped me as well as many oyhers 0on here. I beleive that if the Owner if the company was n0t such a tyte wad he could win races and sell more boats all across the board.:cool:

Ziemer, yeah thats the one. Thanks for the help unfortunately I'm looking for an I/O. That is a sweet boat. I found one pretty close to that for sale for $2499 w/o motor if any one is interested here's the link.

This is the only velocity I've seen with flat black dash like this. Does anyone know if this is factory and how much it might cost to change it to solid red?

Also just thought I'd post this pick and see if anyone could tell anything about the transom. It looks to me that it may have been painted? Thanks for the help:drink:

Re: What is a 1986 Velocity 22 worth?
 

The flat black gauge surface was stock. You could paint it to match but you may get some glare reflecting off of it into your eyes. Most I/O 22's of that vintage had a grey bilge and transom. White looks better!

Re: What is a 1986 Velocity 22 worth?
 

I think that is a DEAL!! I've got a 1986 22ft Velocity I/O that wasn't close to being that nice. I bought it without an interior on a trailer for $3500.00 and it would still take about that to buy it. I'd post pictures of mine but it would scare you!!!

Re: What is a 1986 Velocity 22 worth?
 

Yeah Funhome I changed my mind and I think I'm going to pick that one up. Anyone know just what the best set up would be for the motor? Anyone selling a 200+ o/b?

Re: What is a 1986 Velocity 22 worth?
 

That looks like a nice boat. If it's as clean as the pics show, grab that thing up. It would be a no brainer if it were me. It appears to be a pre-Regal Steve Stepp boat too.

Good luck. ;)

Re: What is a 1986 Velocity 22 worth?
 

Ziemer, what items make the boat appear pre-Regal? Just asking out of curiousity. I own an early "Regal" Velocity and am curious of obvious differences.

Re: What is a 1986 Velocity 22 worth?
 

I had an 86 Regal 22' o/b..the thing was a kick in the azz...never should've let it go...

Good Luck...
