Sea Hunt Triton 220
 
I was at the Norwalk Boat Show this weekend, and the Sea Hunt dealer had a new model for 2004 - the Triton 220. It was the exact same design as the 23-footer, just smaller. The hull looked like it would fit my needs nicely. Deep sides and an enclosed transom, to really let you feel like you're "in" the boat. Swim/dive platform in back, which would give me a handy place to put on my dive gear, as well as give the dog an easier place to get in/out of the water. A huge raised casting deck that when cushioned, would give the boss a place to sunbathe when she's out with me.

I priced out a package with all the options I wanted - leaning ppost with rocket launchers, hydraulic steering, bow cushions. With a dual-axle trailer and a carb Johnson 150, the total was only $26,200. I could upgrade the engine to a 200 Ficht, or a Honda (the dealer carries OMC and Honda), and still be in the low $30's. And that was just the first offer, there could be some more wiggle room. That sounds pretty good for what appears to be a mid-tier 22-footer. It ain't a Regulator, but it ain't a Sea Fox either.

What do you guys think of Sea Hunt?

For the money it seems like a real nice boat, there have been a few posts about how they will fair 5 years down the line as far as fit and finish go. In that price range for a 22' boat I think you would be hard pressed to find something better.....:)

Clamdigger has the 21 footer one and hopefully he will post. Nice ride in rough water, nice to fish from.

Saw them last year at the boston boat show.

I liked it, it seemed good and solid.

Might need more power than 150 though.

The 21 goes good with a 150 and a couple fat guys :eek: ... Larry @ Tropicland has a Honda 130 on his 235 Sea Hunt, I can see that as being under power. 150 would be OK on the 22, 200 wouldn't hurt.

Hey Clamdigger -

Which model do you have, the 210 or the 212? Is there anything you would change if you could?

#210
I changed things before I got it==I order it without some of the stuff I didn,t need ==why pay for irt
no seat ,no windshield, bo hand rails

then I had it setup the way I wanted it
low rail in front, set up of the side for digging, but the best is the custom t=top, its not like anyones elses & it works great
if you get a 150 pay more money & get F/I:D :D
